P.C. and over the line. How delusional are the PC crowd.

In the interests of preserving feelings and saving face there is a PC crowd out there so overly ambitious they want us all to just stop talking. That's right, noting you can ever say will be PC enough for them, and next our cold and bitter stares, sad and empathetic looks will be on the line. Because you are biggoting with your eyes. PC has gone from making the world a better place to making this country full of a bunch of whining morons who don't get the difference between help and harm. They are so worried someone is being damaged by your use of language they want you to just be silenced.

Contrary to this line of utter garbage, it does nothing to solve any problems. PC people are just a unch of whiny malcontents looking for a place to happen. They are actually doing the worst harm by stopping intellectual discussions about how to inform, educate, and change minds. Because changing minds is also not PC, unless you are a PCtard looking to spread your vile message of just stop talking and start unwantedly hugging people who can't stand you because you want to cover the crap in society and play pretend that it doesn't exist and we all get along.

Realistically, we as a society have issues, deep and wide issues. We have factions going out there trying to do harm to everyone else and it seems the only way to get into the mix and cure it is being attacked. Instead of having intellectuals address situations and resolve social conflict, we either have a bunch of extremists running around crying everything is the end of the world, a fascist state, Hitler, or that everything is racist.

What this shows is that ignorance has the power in our society and the educated are being shoved into the corners and out of the way. We keep looking for the PC people to solve issues they have no concept of how to deal with. Just look, has PC stopped bullying, no. Has being PC stopped violence in America, no. Has being PC done anything good, no. We just have a bunch of pretentious evangelists telling us how to speak and when we can be heard, and it does nothing for important social issues.

I don't buy the PC mantra. I am not going to be politically correct for anyone to feel all better inside while other groups suffer the slings and arrows of foul play, and utter disregard. I can't settiate myslef to relegating human suffering to a PC garbage movement of worthless intentions solving nothing.

We as a society need to address things as they are, call out real social issues, and say, screw the PC crap, we intend to get things done. From PC feminism, racism, animal rights to PC politics, it is all a mash of utter garbage handed to you on a platter and we can't afford to play pretend in a time where social justice should be keeping up with technology.

So you can play pretend in your personal lives as much as you care to but as for PC and me. I don't cater to people who have enough issues that they can't address things like adults. Go play PC in your sand box.

The power of Neurons and what makes me, ME!

The power of Neurons and what makes me, ME! Inside of our skull there is a whole world. Interactions so fast moving, we don't even know they have happened before we react. Professor Gerbig once told me that a neuron can fire off 25 times in one second. Yet it does so faster than I can think about what it is doing. In fact as I think what to write my neurons have already fired out commands for my fingers to move and my eyes. The brain is a well organized machine. So mysterious and complex, that studying it often leaves us more perplexed than when we started. Neurons are a mass of Dendrites, and Axons. They all group together and fire off in the same direction. It is by having these specialized cells we are able to think, and be aware of the world around us. They are hungry and hard working cells. Just a few minutes without air leaves them dying. They are faster than any computer and work from birth to death. In fact scientists are starting to find that when neurons do not fire...

Why I am thinking of leaving activism.

I must say, the last year or so has been a wild ride. Meeting so many wonderful people, getting so many hugs, showing and being shown so much love. It warms the heart, it makes me proud and feel like this is what life should be. Lately though, those feelings have turned to a kind of sadness that I just can't explain. One that haunts and disturbs me. When I first came into activism, it was just a passion. One girl with a blog, a vocabulary that was utterly passionate, and a dream. I was charged, and madly, deeply driven by passion I had gotten from the likes of Dawkins and Hitchens. I could see the way I wanted life to be, and how oppressive religion was, how it tore men down and broke their spirits, and destroyed the very natural fabric of man. Now almost two years later, I sit at my kitchen table thinking, how do I go on? How can I do this, when the fire is dying inside. I don't feel inspired, worst of al I don't even feel like writing, or doing a podcast or standing ...

Be Inspired: Hitchens Last Message.

Image
It has not yet been a year since the passing of Christopher Hitchens. Every time I hear his words I am inspired. His contribution to humanity will sustain mankind for thousands of years to come. His whit and candor brought fear to his foes. His splendid knowledge was like a well versed and worn book. Every page was some sparkling overlooked detail of history. He shined a light on the hypocrisy of religion, and shouted it from every podium or arena he could find. In his final message, in Texas, to the freethinkers gathered there, he said "Be inspired." He looked to the future that he would never see. A future where we solve the mysteries that lie awaiting our discovery. Discoveries he could have never dreamed of, for his lifetime. On the eve of his own departure from humanity, he knew that our choices will effect the certainty of our existence. We as a species, and a group, and societies, countries, families. He had come to terms with his own human frailty as an organic...
