What I'm saying here Jeffery, is that as memes go it's badly done. You may feel otherwise and you have that right.
But if it came through my feed I'd barely roll my eyes as I scrolled past.

I was pleased to see the posts by Schwarzenegger. He has a tremendous following in Russia (including Putin himself... or did) “I am speaking to you today because there are things that are going on in the world that are being kept from you, terrible things that you should know about,†Mr. Schwarzenegger said, citing Russian propaganda. “You started this war. You are leading this war. You can stop this war.†That's gonna sting. “Ukraine did not start this war,†he said. “Neither did nationalists or Nazis. Those in power in the Kremlin started this war. This is not the Russian people’s war.†Yeah, truth hurts.
A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.
Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich

They'll think he was drugged or that it was an imposter and call him a RINO (Russian in name only) It's a whole country with only FOX News and only Fox News viewers. It's a country where Republicans and the rich got everything they wanted and if you don't like it you can go straight to jail.
The truth only hurts if you believe it. Otherwise, it's just a malicious lie.

There's a town in Tennessee that's all run by Black people called Mason, but it's about to get a brand-new big ol' Ford EV truck and battery plant nearby, and there' about to be a whole lot of opportunity. See, Mason is only 5 miles away. So now the state Comptroller Jason Mumpower who happens to be white, is insisting that the whole town government step down, its 60% black residence vote to relinquish the city charter for their own li'l good, and let the the majority white Tipton county government run the area. Think money and power have anything to do with this? Can you say Greenwood? Tennessee Lookout

...from my link re: Greenwood ...fueled by oil money, Tulsa was a growing, prosperous city with a population of more than 100,000 people. But crime rates were high, and vigilante justice of all kinds wasn’t uncommon.
Tulsa was also a highly segregated city: Most of the city’s 10,000 Black residents lived in a neighborhood called Greenwood, which included a thriving business district sometimes referred to as the Black Wall Street. Then a trumped-up race riot using airplanes to drop bombs burned the community to the ground.

I’m headed to one of the biochar+energy pilot sites in NM Tuesday to do some demonstrations and training. I get to stay here for three nights.
