Diogenes comments on Jun 5, 2020:

I have always liked Sharpton. Somebody has got to have the guts to hit the nail on the head- instead of tapping it down with feathers. Imagine, murdering someone on a busy street, in broad daylight, and taking over 9 minutes to do it- and nobody with enough guts to use a bat to the back of the criminal/cop's head.

Diogenes comments on Jun 5, 2020:

FANTASTIC! But I am a little confused- sure as hell wouldn't be the first time "I've been confused"! This album is supposed to be a Scots album, but the last time I looked Northumberland was in Geordie country and south of Hadrian's Wall. ------ Major point again- great tune!

Diogenes comments on Jun 4, 2020:

Dump lives in his bung hole of insanity and he is quite comfortable there. Lately though, he may be starting to dread the thought of 'them' (the thousands of "them"s that he has cheated or murdered) smashing down his door in the night.

Trump refuses to unveil the portrait of Obama.

Diogenes comments on Jun 2, 2020:

If someone still has an outhouse, Dump's ugly puss could be hung there, upside down, just like he was when he viewed the world.

Trump must go, before it's too late.

Diogenes comments on Jun 2, 2020:

Sure Foggy Dump "handled" all this, as he always does, by making it as unbelievably bad as his flea-sized brain will allow.

Almost as if Jesus was fictional!

Diogenes comments on Jun 2, 2020:

I'm repeating this. I watched a lecture done by a prof. He said there was an actual Jesus that led a minor Jewish cult. All the other nonsense and lies, coming back from the dead etc., were added after.

This would be funny if it were not so serious! Good luck America and Brazil, you need it!

Diogenes comments on May 21, 2020:

Well Trump is achieving his goals. When the US was 80,000, JUST A FEW DAYS AGO, I said it would go to 100,000 and his next goal would be 200,000. When he gets the second wave rolling, he has already made plans for that; It will be OVER 200,000. "I believe, I believe". Daring death to take him with this malaria drug, why doesn't Mother Nature do her duty, and dump the pail of shit?

Diogenes comments on May 14, 2020:

What I am about to say does not apply to the 'evangelicals', the born-agains- the second time without a brain. There are some religious people who are too busy doing humanitarian tasks that they don't have time to propagate religion. I am not trying to be an opponent of Mr. Hitch, but I believe his statement needs some adjustment.

Does anything about being in an atheist or agnostic social network provide comfort?

Diogenes comments on May 14, 2020:

Being a realist, especially an agnostic, I believe causes more stress. The reality is that there are things we don't know, but 'when we know it all', we will be able to create a universe ourselves. Obviously that is not going to happen. For those who enjoy tattered nonsense, there is always the soothing huggy-bear of religion. I prefer reality.

The real reason trump wants to reopen....as if we didn't already know 🤬

Diogenes comments on May 12, 2020:

Regarding the virus, only, among Trump's many unspeakable evils- he MUST satisfy his blood lust- when he reaches 200,000 murders, he will try for 300,000.---- And he is planning to get away with it. For those who would allow that, they too should be hung. I am sure those that are at the end of life, young or old, would agree with me.

Pence is a moron, but Trump has a good reason no to wear a mask!

Because it's behind a paywall ,,, Could Trump Go the Way of Herbert Hoover?

Diogenes comments on May 9, 2020:

I only read a few paragraphs of this loquacious rant. How can you equate Hoover with the 'Thing'? From what I have read Hoover was a decent person who inherited the US portion of a world depression. The 'Thing' has murdered 80,000 people- and has already started the second wave. This has caused missive unemployment. He has never done anything decent in his twisted life.

I am still in the plebian group, but as a person lessens their ignorance there is less reason to converse with the willfully stupid. The billionaire, 'Mr. Trump', is willfully a moron; his net worth as a human is zero.

Yes; Donald John Trump has never personally stole a nickel from anyone; he is not smart enough. He gives a 5 pound package of money to his crooked lawyers, so they will steal from the poverty stricken.

“I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today.

Diogenes comments on May 4, 2020:

M. first of all, I want you to have a good day. I have planned to have a 'productive' day. Ya, but I have "planned" and carefully organized before, and yearned for positive results for my intense efforts! End of that discussion! Yesterday instead of talking life to death, I went on a walk in the 'sun' for a change. It was hardly a 'strenuous' effort. Just goes to prove: use 'it', strength, or lose it. Hell, I've got to get out on a few 3 hour hikes--- a few times a week.

“Folks are usually as happy as they make their minds up to be”..............Abraham Lincoln.

Diogenes comments on May 3, 2020:

Is that why Mary Todd Lincoln ended up in a mental facility? After the death of her son and seeing her husband's head blown away, was it any wonder that she had no 'mind' to make up? A few days ago, I saw a bit of reality: "Make use of all your opportunities---- but the 'opportunities' have to be available!" Guess even Abe had the ability, to indulge in platitudes. … and I should have taken the "opportunity to just let this one slip by.

So the new strategy for the talking yam is to blame everything on China.

Diogenes comments on May 2, 2020:

It's the fault of China, WHO, his campaign manager- and the next person that gets into his sight. When is he going to blame it on the 'little green men from Mars?' I'm sure he has talked to them already. But that would be false news; he's a stable genius.

Where did Trumpkins get the idea that he can do anything he wants?

Diogenes comments on May 2, 2020:

Well so far he has "run everything by himself", he contradicts, on a regular basis, any member of "his" government. If he isn't taken away in handcuffs, wait till he starts a nuclear war.

The process we are in the center of at this time is happening whether or not we want it to.

“Generally speaking, the errors in religion are dangerous; those in philosophy only ridiculous”...

Diogenes comments on May 2, 2020:

I wasn't much of a student as far as philosophy was concerned, but I found Hume had something worthwhile to say. A comparison to the logic of Hume is Sigmund Freud and apparently 'Siggy' Freud wasn't quite up to it in the reality department. He smoked 20 cigars a day and in the end, with his face eaten away with cancer, died by assisted suicide. There was a program on TV a few nights ago about the abuse of boys by the pervert priests. One priest, 'with his doctorate', said, "The church is going to end this." NO THEY ARE NOT. Religion is a bad joke; Christianity is nothing more than 2,000 year old superstition. The universe was not created in seven days; nothing has ever come back from the dead. But to admit this---- would end their BUSINESS!

Take responsibility, me, nah!

Diogenes comments on May 1, 2020:

If he ever said that- it would be the only time he told the truth in his life- he has not got enough talent to be president of anything, including the president of the local dog catchers association

Trump called out by reporter for opening country early to get elected

Trump wants to be "successful"- he wants to start the second wave as soon as possible. He has only murdered 58,000 so far. Fauci has said the second wave could be worse than the first. I wonder if Dump's tiny thing in his lump can figure it out: "dead people don't go back to work."

Diogenes comments on Apr 30, 2020:

Trumps' correct---- CERTAINLY BY ACCIDENT. With the inability to get face masks, I use the few what I have a few times. I put them on the "black" dash (that should draw more heat) of the car, and hope that the ultra-violet from the sun will disinfect them. I should face the sun with my tongue out- maybe it can get disinfected too. LOL.

Trumps count went up by more than five. He has now murdered more than 50,000 (Germany 5,000 deaths total)--- and don't forget to get your "disinfectant injection". How is 'anything' this insane allowed on the streets. And the financial costs!! Somebody said just print more money- what happens when there is no money for the paper? It will be the Trump-things biggest success, his largest bankruptcy ever- and he is proficient at doing the bankruptcy deal.

and he won't go peacefully.

Diogenes comments on Apr 22, 2020:

His departure will not be funny- and I am not saying your post is a joke. Britain had Emperor Cromwell a while back; Trump has all his players in place for a dictatorship- and he PLANS on applying it. By doing nothing at the start of this virus, he has managed to murder 45,373 by today's date, April 22, and the death total in the world is 177, 602.

I will certainly have rebuttals for saying this, any one that has time to waste to be an atheist and challenge the absurdity of religion, has too much time on their hands. Nature is! That's it. Long after this sun has burned out, what's to be?
