Nuclear power is ABSOLUTELY NOT a remedy for the climate crisis! See these highly informative resources.

December 26, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

The nuclear power industry has fooled many politicians — and much of the mainstream media — into thinking that nuclear power is a remedy for the climate crisis.  It absolutely is NOT.

Henry Kissinger persistently promoted violence, opposed human rights, committed war crimes

December 3, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

For decades the U.S. government — and compliant mainstream news media — pretended that Henry Kissinger was a great diplomat, when actually he was the opposite.  He PERSISTENTLY promoted violence, opposed human rights, and committed war crimes. Now after he died on Nov. 29, 2023, at the age of 100, some people are reporting the truth about him.   Henry Kissinger, America’s Most Notorious War Criminal, Dies At 100.  The titan of American foreign policy was complicit in millions of deaths — and never showed remorse for his decisions. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/henry-kissinger-dies_n_6376933ae4b0afce046cb44f?email_hash=d82661dbaf9d922be74896a49d247c55ffc55d54 Henry Kissinger was a war criminal:  https://www.rawstory.com/henry-kissinger-war-criminal/ This article summarizes […]

June 29, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

The July 2023 episode of “Glen’s Parallax Perspectives” TV series examines the recent bi-partisan bill to increase the national debt ceiling.  I provide much fresh information – and many fresh insights – that counter what politicians and mainstream media have been saying: I explain the “debt ceiling” as a phony baloney scam that Republicans have been abusing.

I explain what Biden and Democrats should have done instead. I explain the remedies that would have been better than […]

These savvy, practical insights can reach and convince the public about our issues

March 21, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

I’ve been working with some people who want to “nationalize” an industry that has been owned by capitalists for many decades.  Several members of that group pointed out that calling for “nationalizing” it can leave us open to accusations of being “socialists” or “communists.”  They said that INSTEAD we should call for “public ownership,” which sounds more democratic and practical. I agree that it is crucially important to frame this issue with the appealing term “public ownership.” I wrote an article about the overall concept of how to choose our terminology to reach out effectively to the public and bring […]

Now the news media are IGNORING the climate crisis, so WE MUST ORGANIZE a big, strategically savvy GRASSROOTS MOVEMENT!

March 4, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

Does the climate crisis still exist?  Has it gone away? It is NOT in the news now. In order to solve the climate crisis, WE MUST MAKE IT A HOT ISSUE AGAIN!!!  WE MUST ORGANIZE A SAVVY GRASSROOTS MOVEMENT to expose the problems and propose solutions!!!   Page 62 of the February-March 2023 issue of The Progressive Magazine (www.progressive.org) reported this: “Only one independent news source, Truthout, reported on a Media Matters for America study that found that morning TV shows gave almost as much air-time to Bezos’s 2021 space launch as they did to all climate crisis news in […]

House Republicans use the phony-baloney “debt ceiling” to hold the U.S. hostage and cut programs we really need

February 4, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

Mainstream news media keep giving credibility to Republican propaganda about the “debt ceiling.” The “debt ceiling” is NOT in the Constitution.  It is simply a law that could be repealed, but Democrats keep failing to take that necessary action.  Congress has routinely increased it — including in every year of the Trump regime — but when Republican Newt Gingrich had power in the House and when Democrats Obama and Biden have been President, Republicans act like terrorists and hold our nation hostage and threaten to shut down our government because they want to cut spending for programs we really need, […]

How could we frame our international peace message to avoid a rhetorical pitfall?

January 27, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

We want peace worldwide.  We need to help people understand international issues with a worldwide vision and values that reach all around the globe. However, the right wing — and ultra-nationalists — have been promoting rhetoric AGAINST this worldwide view.  They denounce “globalism” (and often hatefully claim Jews are behind it).  Unfortunately, the right-wing media and many Americans — including some members of Congress — fall into the trap. This irrational mania interferes with our legitimate organizing for peace and international problem-solving (including global environmental, climate, disease, economic, and other problems). Actually, part of the problem is global CAPITALISM, but […]

The “debt ceiling” is a Republican scam to prevent funding programs we need.

January 25, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

The media are currently obsessed with the “debt ceiling” and are grossly distorting the realities! The “debt ceiling” is NOT in the Constitution.  It’s just a law — a law that has been changed many times. Republicans keep using it to bully Democrats into cutting Social Security, Medicare, and other important programs that people really need.  Republicans NEVER call for cutting the Pentagon budget. Spending is one side of the ledger.  The other side is TAXES.  Republican who are worried about deficits and the public debt NEVER call for raising taxes on RICH PEOPLE or BIG BUSINESSES.  They want to […]

A huge amount of baloney circulates throughout society, not just on social media. Let’s help other people and ourselves avoid getting fooled or misled. Here is a list of 15 fallacies to watch out for:   Ad Hominem:  Attacking the person instead of dealing rationally with what the person is saying Straw-man Argument:  Distorting what the other person is saying, and arguing against that instead of what the person has really said Appeal to Ignorance:  Promoting gullibility and saying something must be true if it has not been explicitly disproven False Dilemma:  Disregarding the complexity of an issue, and boiling […]
