"...today's rigged economy that favors the establishment elites..."

(M)an: Dude! I’m with Senator Bernie Sanders in that I agree there should be three additional debates in California, Michigan, and New York between Secretary Hillary Rodham Clinton and him. Last night’s town hall moderated by Anderson Cooper on CNN was an eye opener and set Bernie Sanders in a league apart from Hillary Rodham Clinton. Whereas Hillary Rodham Clinton came across as defensive and edgy, Bernie Sanders was actually very clear and consistent in his answers to the extent that his true personality surfaced unlike anywhere else. Bernie Sanders is not defensive or edgy because he’s aligned his awareness with our suffering, being overworked and underpaid as we are in today’s rigged economy that favors the establishment elites.  

(D)ude: Man! Lobbyists representing the travel industry lobbied against efforts to control the Zika virus by stopping travelers from traveling into the infected areas. Isn’t it a disgrace when the World Health Organization is preempted by travel industry lobbyists? Clearly, there are no boundaries where they ought to be set up, like between WHO and congressional lobbyists. It is obscene!

M: Dude! I’m astonished by how dependent Wall Street is on the production and distribution patterns of oil across continents. Right now, the marketplace that includes domestic and foreign markets, is so entrenched in the value of oil remaining stable and on the high price end overall.

D: Man! Speaking of high price endings, I came across some dire situations that could hold the key to the identity of the Long Island serial killer. I was reading the 2013 bestseller about the female victims of the Long Island serial killer, a book by Robert Kolker entitled Lost Girls: An Unsolved American Mystery and came to an awful realization. That awfulness being that the girls were too disenfranchised to be considered worth fighting for the identity of their killer. In fact, the people who live by the beach over there in Long Island were dismissive and indifferent to the plight of the girls because the girls were revealed to be prostituting around the time of their demise through Craigslist. Even if they weren’t meaning to be doing so, the implication that they had used Craigslist was that they had actively engaged in deviant behavior and had brought upon their gruesome fate themselves.

M: Dude! Isn’t that injustice? I’m really concerned too in the same way for the girls and women who are using online one-night-stand websites like Tinder!

D: Man! I came to realize that the women killed in Long Island, New York, had been sighted by the people living by the beachfront. According to Kolker’s groundbreaking research, many of the girls were spotted by residents owning beachfront property there. For example, there was a similar eyewitness account by a male resident and a female resident of a young woman running to their front doors around the same time one night and being scooped into an unmarked SUV by unidentifiable movements from within the vehicle.

M: Dude! How many Concord, New Hampshire prep school perpetrators like Owen Labrie must there be out there? Labrie had secured admission into Harvard Divinity School when he was arrested for sexual assault of a fifteen-year-old student.

D: Man! Even worse, I read somewhere that perpetrators of serial kills operate in groups. After reading Kolker’s book, I am convinced that there are many groups of prep school perpetrators out there and that they are operating successful horrors on the backs of the working class poor like the girls and women killed in Long Island. There are anywhere between ten and seventeen victims since the Long Island serial killings came onto the radars of local law enforcement and the FBI.

M: Dude! American colonialism has set in as a result of white collar criminals being segregated from blue collar criminals. Likewise, look at the death penalty in the United States and how Amal Clooney’s choosing to represent as an attorney the dual rapist Julian Assange—and I say dual rapist because two women described his anatomy thoroughly after he had assaulted them in the course of consensual sex turned nonconsensual. After last year’s Academy Awards awarding Edward Snowden’s biopic Citizenfour, I wasn’t surprised when I heard there’s another biopic of Julian Assange in the works by the female documentarian that brought us Citizenfour, Laura Poitras.

D: Man! Laura Poitras was featured in a Vogue Magazine article! January 27, 2016! She informed the interviewer Sara Corbett that she’s working on a Julian Assange film entitled Asylum, and that she’s a George Herbert Walker Bush and George Walker Bush crumbling just like CBS’s Sumner Redstone and Hillary Rodham Clinton.  

M: Dude! These folks live on the Bush family’s trillion-dollar pie crumbs in the monetary sums of millions and billions of dollars that are shaven meticulously to purchase allegiances of a diverse group that includes the press corps and politicians red and blue!  

D: Man! Do you really think the Bushes aren’t trillionaires? Why else would Walker 43 choose to appear for jury duty in Dallas, Texas other than to deflect attention from his status as an American trillionaire? Not surprisingly, he’s got an exclusive access across Texas via the Chisholm Trail toll way, just like the way Pakistan’s establishment elites crisscross the country via highways that were installed to get them to and from their workplaces and extramarital affairs.

M: Dude! The Bushes’ trillions are blood money. And it’s not just Iraqi blood, but the blood of the diverse Americans in and outside of the United States via our sons and daughters in diverse uniforms, from soldiers signing up for multiple deployments to first responders and the survivors who risked everything to salvage any lives remaining after the fall of the Twin Towers.

D: Man! Why is Amal Clooney so focused on the Maldives at the moment? Does it have anything to do with Hillary Rodham Clinton not being able to answer audience questions last night about her interventionist record and drafting women in the armed services as well as men?

M: Dude! Folks which constitute the Bush family’s crumbs?

D: Man! Media giant Sumner Redstone killed Dan Rather’s career on behalf of the trillionaire Bush family dynasty. And Hollywood too is eating up the crumbs from the Bush trillion-dollar underworld otherworldliness. Look at the way Jane Fonda has endorsed Jennifer Lawrence for a second Oscar win this year despite Lawrence lacking any acting chops of her own. And have you seen Patricia Arquette in the film she was awarded an Oscar for last year, Boyhood? Well, let me just fast forward to one of the final scenes where she laments to her teenage son on his way to whatever university he’s selected to attend. Patricia Arquette’s character, the mother, mourns for past days including the time where the family awaited test results for the now-adolescent college goer concerning a possible dyslexia diagnosis. No acting chops there either! Patricia Arquette and Jennifer Lawrence suffer the same flatness!  

M: Dude! Movies are deteriorating and, yet, the Academy Awards refuses to recognize Netflix films as legitimate moviemaking and the organization a viable production house.

D: Man! White media big shots must boycott these Oscars because the same exact mechanics have played out time and time again. Look at the way perverted predators like Woody Allen and Roman Polanski have sustained imminence with the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and have very active string of lineups underway, remember Polanski’s commercial for the fashion house Prada four years ago? Woody Allen’s films are complete nonsense but hyped up as extraordinarily genius while the degenerate gets award after award from the Academy, even 2014’s Cecile B. DeMille from the Golden Globes!

M: Dude! Chris Rock and Denzel Washington beware! The two are nothing but tokens in the hands of a rigged Hollywood awards economy that’s nothing but beasts of no nation. Rock and Washington will be targeted as was Steve Harvey at the Miss Universe pageant. Harvey never exploited his guests on his television and radio programs, hence he became vulnerable to the exploitative entertainment hunters like William Morris Endeavor and Donald John Trump.

D: Man! Speak of enslavement!

M: Dude! Edward E. Baptist’s masterpiece from 2014, The Half Has Never Been Told: Slavery and the Making of American Capitalism speaks volumes across all times when he describes the physical conditions slaves endured from before the time of the American Revolution to the expansion outwards into more territories, slaves being forced to trek barefoot westward and southward from New England into the rest of what became Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and so on and so forth. This is how Baptist makes the slaves’ brutal journeying even more unmistakably clear and obvious, from page 4,

“There are 1,760 yards in a mile—more than 2,000 steps. Forty thousand is a long day’s journey. Two hundred thousand is a hard week. For eighty years, from the 1780s until 1865, enslaved migrants walked for miles, days, and weeks. Driven south and west over flatlands and mountains, step after step they went farther from home. Stumbling with fatigue, staggering with whiskey, even sometimes stepping high on bright spring mornings when they refused to think of what weighed them down, many covered over 700 miles before stepping off the road their footsteps made. Seven hundred miles is a million and a half steps. After weeks of wading rivers, crossing state lines, and climbing mountain roads, and even boarding boats and ships and then disembarking, they moved their bodies across the frontier between the old slavery and the new.”
