Biden violates 2020 campaign promises by BUILDING TRUMP’S WALL, despite 26 laws

November 28, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

Biden said border walls do not work, but he is waiving 26 laws to build more of Trump’s Wall. These two articles were posted October 5, 2023: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/biden-border-wall_n_651f5354e4b091a3dc26bf23?email_hash=d82661dbaf9d922be74896a49d247c55ffc55d54   and https://truthout.org/articles/biden-administration-waives-26-laws-to-speed-construction-on-trumps-border-wall/?utm_source=Truthout&utm_campaign=e340eb2861-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_3_20_2023_13_41_COPY_05&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_bbb541a1db-e340eb2861-652572905&mc_cid=e340eb2861&mc_eid=d635d5c1bf   Also, in order to continue building Trump’s Wall, Biden waived these two laws among the 26:  the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, the American Indian Religious Freedom Act, and the National Environmental Policy Act .  Biden took his cruel action without seeking any input from local communities. His Department of Homeland Security is FAST-TRACKING the border wall construction and VIOLATING TREATIES.  Biden’s wall will go through a […]

Our national culture values and worships the OPPOSITE of Nonviolence

November 24, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

We need to recognize that our national culture is trapped in myths, values, beliefs, and an educational system that are the OPPOSITE of Nonviolence. In the 1760s and 1770s, nonviolent resistance was already winning independence for the 13 colonies before the Revolutionary War started killing British troops and thereby gave England a reason to violently wage war against the colonies.  Gene Sharp’s research showed that we would have achieved independence sooner if we had continued nonviolent resistance instead of resorting to war. We have worshiped the military ever since, even though the U.S. has not won a war since World […]

November 22, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

Here are some very interesting psychological aspects related to people’s attitudes about guns (both pro and con).  Let’s use these insights to help us reduce gun violence. This very interesting article that packs a lot into 7 pages:  https://ernestbecker.org/this-mortal-life/death-anxiety-and-gun-violence/ A different link at the same website offers smart insights into how we might use the overall principles in our organizing about guns.  See this fascinating, practical 5-page article about “Death Anxiety and Social Change”:  https://ernestbecker.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/death-anxiety-and-social-change-ernest-becker-foundation.pdf Seven years ago I interviewed an expert about the topic for my November 2016 TV program.  I titled that episode, “Social and Political Implications of […]

Biden’s wars ANTAGONIZE VOTERS away from him. Polls show voters choose Trump as the PEACE candidate.

November 6, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

Democrats think Biden is a smart politician.  Actually, he — and the Democratic Party — are stupidly ANTAGONIZING VOTERS so they will vote for Trump instead in 2024.  The Democratic Party learned nothing from their 2016 debacle when the party imposed Hillary Clinton upon us. In early November 2023, several public opinion polls showed that VOTERS OPPOSE BIDEN’S WARS and think TRUMP WOULD BE MORE LIKELY TO PROTECT PEACE. Nov. 5, 2023:  Most Americans believe … U.S. would be kept out of war if Trump reelected:  https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/most-americans-believe-they-d-be-better-off-financially-u-s-would-be-kept-out-of-war-if-trump-reelected/ar-AA1jqAJc?ocid=winp1taskbar&cvid=9fa65ac1248c4e10e8a3ba30d8749a1d&ei=9 Nov. 6, 2023:  Voters think Trump’s more likely to increase peace in world […]

“Active Nonviolence in Daily Life” — My speaking engagement includes practical and religious aspects

November 6, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

Olympia’s Westminster Presbyterian Church invited me to speak there about “Active Nonviolence in Daily Life” on Sunday October 8, 2023. I prepared a message that solidly delivered on the topic they gave me.  The audience liked very much – and they told me so.  Although this was a speaking engagement rather than a sermon, one person said it was the best sermon they had ever heard.  Much of what I said will be new to the friends and family members to whom I’m sending this e-mail. I shared: Insights into understanding profoundly what nonviolence is – and why it is […]

Trump really is a fascist. He is doing many things that Hitler did.

August 28, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

Trump really is a fascist.  He does not want America to think.  See this:  https://www.alternet.org/the-fascist-who-doesnt-want-america-to-think/?recip_id=960194&list_id=2   See this article titled: “Trump Wants to Make the US a Nazi Nation”: Trump Is Maintaining Popularity and the Hitler Parallels Are Terrifying.  Here is the article:  https://www.alternet.org/florida-laws-set-scene-shooting/?recip_id=960194&list_id=2   Leading civil rights lawyer shows 20 ways Trump is copying Hitler:   https://www.alternet.org/alternet-exclusives/trump-and-hitler/   Is Trump following the same well-worn path blazed by other terrorist leaders?  See this:  https://www.rawstory.com/thom-hartmann/?rsplus   Trump posed like Hitler for their mug shots.  Notice that the weird lighting almost looks more like a painting than a photograph.  Trump’s mug shot looks […]

Trump has absolutely NO conscience. He acts ONLY to promote his EGO, WEALTH and POWER.

August 28, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

Throughout all of Trump’s behaviors, crimes, vindictive insults, etc., we must recognize these TWO HARD REALITIES: 1. Trump has NO CONSCIENCE. 2. Everything Trump does is for his own EGO, POWER and WEALTH. Trump has NO CONSCIENCE whatsoever.  He was a spoiled brat who never grew up.  All he cares about is his own ego, his own wealth, and his own power.  He will NEVER REPENT because his psychological disabilities prevent him from understanding that he has ever done anything wrong. He must be stopped (nonviolently, of course) and prevented from causing any further damage to the world. I’ve posted […]

“No Labels” really is a front for Republicans and conservatives

August 23, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

For a number of months starting in early 2023, a new group called “No Labels” — No Labels — has claimed to be an independent organization that is NOT a political party and is promoting an alternative to presidential nominees from the two big political parties.  However, it is building state-level organizations and it is acting like a political party — or at least a front for one (the Republicans).  It seems to be well financed from “dark money” sources.  It seems to be organizing to take more votes away from Biden than from Trump in the 2024 presidential election.  […]

Prosecute Corporate Crime to Hold Big Businesses Accountable: Sept. 2023 TV program

August 11, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

The September 2023 TV program in the “Glen’s Parallax Perspectives” series helps us understand how some big businesses are allowed to break federal laws – and get away with it. Big business corporations have enormous wealth – so they also have enormous power.  The federal government should be making them obey the laws, but – instead – the government keeps refusing to hold them accountable.  This hurts all of us – and our health – and our environment – and our sense of having an honest government. One expert guest helped us explore this topic.  Rick Claypool is a research […]

Replace Simplistic “National Security” with TRUE Security

July 30, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

This has POWERFUL INFORMATION and SMART INSIGHTS. I strongly encourage you to watch this TV program and/or read the transcript with additional information. The August 2023 episode of “Glen’s Parallax Perspectives” TV series provides a FRESH, BOLD, CREATIVE re-thinking of U.S. foreign policy. Our status quo of seeking “national security” really urges military violence.  Instead, I explain how TRUE Security would be based on fairness, cooperation and nonviolence.  The U.S.’s foreign policy angers the world and does not even make us secure.  The TRUE Security I propose would actually solve the problems that make the world dangerous.  It would make […]

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

5 characteristics of science denial.

June 27, 2023 GlenAnderson 0

The scientific method is valid.  It is scrupulously honest.  But some people still try to deny science. For example, in order to deny science, right-wing extremist Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene used the gimmicks mentioned in this article: https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2023/4/15/2164134/-MT-Greene-attempts-to-explain-climate-change-is-fake-it-goes-badly?detail=emaildkbow&pm_source=DKRE&pm_medium=email
