Part of the 21st century trends that are destroying our society and culture is the anti-American, anti-Liberty, anti-free speech, and unethical trend to literally silence, yes silence, viewpoints that bigoted people don't like.
Silenced, Again

A Character Is A Diamond That Scratches Every Stone!
I'm just another person that's been around the block a few times offering their opinion about the observed world around us. I don't write every day so don't expect daily instant gratification, I write when I see or hear about something that is morphing society and the urge strikes me.
If you find any links that don't work, typos, or serious grammar problems anywhere on my blog, send me a message using the contact form and I'll look into fixing the error.
What Is Going On?
There is a declining lack of individual responsibility growing in the USA, and as that grows, dependency on the government takes over.
Mob Lynching Of Free Speech?
Watch out all you immoral totalitarians, the free speech and open debate rhetorical steam roller is coming to a neighborhood near you and your morally bankrupt activist days are numbered.
Extreme Bias: A Case Study
Humphrey’s opinions are a reasonable representation of the abnormal, inexcusable, irrational and extremely biased views that flow freely through the veins and arteries of the Madison and Dane County population, infecting all those that don’t have their critical thinking immunizations up to date.
Nextdoor Moderation Corruption Facts, You Decide
Yes I can be a hard man and I've never claimed to be infallible; however, that doesn't change the fact that double standards and corruption are a driving factor behind Nextdoor Deforest WI Community moderation.
If You’re Not Part Of The Mob, It’s Eventually Coming After You Too
No this isn't fiction or satire, it's happening in your own back yard!
Sen. Schumer Openly Lied Trying To Justify The Democrat’s Extortion
It doesn't matter how Sen. Schumer tries to spin this, one way or the other he openly lied and he and his fellow Democrats are openly trying to extort the Republicans.
Unethical Bait & Switch Website Popups
Consumers beware; if Wilson online store is willing to openly use misrepresenting unethical “bait and switch” tactics on potential customers and then double down when confronted with their unethical tactic, what else are they willing to misrepresent on their website?
Part III: Moderation in Nextdoor Deforest, WI Community Has Been Thoroughly Corrupted!
The problem I see with the people that are intentionally corrupting the moderation system on Nextdoor is, they are far too comfortable with their unethical and immoral behaviors and in some cases it appears that they're really enjoying silencing and destroying others. The problem I see with the Nextdoor moderation system is that it literally encourages this kind of abuse and they're not doing anything to fix it.
Part II: Moderation in Nextdoor Deforest, WI Community Has Been Thoroughly Corrupted! [ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ADDED]
Wonder why I call the moderation in the Nextdoor Deforest, WI Community corrupted, Part II of this saga should explain it fairly well to those still sitting on the fence.
Moderation in Nextdoor Deforest, WI Community Has Been Thoroughly Corrupted!
What the original poster got in return for presenting fact based information in a civil manner on a social media platform was bald-faced lies that were intentionally used to silence her words, it was outright censorship of free speech and Nextdoor moderators of the DeForest WI Community not only allowed this travesty but they appeared to encourage it by expanding their immoral actions to include a suspension.
Ethics Alarms: Guest Post By Steve Witherspoon #4
I’m genuinely concerned for the future of the United States of America after the huge baby boom generation dies off and becomes a non-voting block by attrition.
There’s A Great Big World Out There To See
Take the time to see the United States of America.
Crud Run Spring 2025
Respect and tolerance in action.
Tragic Lack of Self-Awareness
When actions don't reflect virtue signaled values, there's a lack of self-awareness to the point of self delusion, this is tragic.
How Low Can They Go?
Trump is living rent free in the psyche of people suffering from TDS and they're too damned stupid to evict him, they'd rather wallow in their hate.
Ethics Alarms: Guest Post By Steve Witherspoon #3
I’ve written it before and I’ll write it again, whenever you possibly can, support your neighbors and buy Made In America!
Finally The Attack Ads Will Be Gone… For A While
Can the newly formed hack pack of left leaning justices accomplish blind justice, maybe, but I’m going to hold my breath after last night’s circling of the wagons at the Crawford victory party.
Wisconsin Supreme Court Race Turned Into A Political Circus
The Wisconsin Supreme Court turned into a political propaganda narrative free-for-all that made the entire campaign look like a demonizing circus.
Ethics Alarms: Guest Post By Steve Witherspoon #2
Those of us that have been tarred as anti-transgenderism bigots, are getting the last laugh as we watch this social nonsense crumble under its own weight of complete absurdities.
The Associated Press Faux Victim Narrative Being Promoted By Progressive Sheeple
I have had about all of the brazen double standard crap from the political left that I can take. The transparently brazen and completely absurd double standards these people are wielding are a genuine cancer to our society and culture.
Why Have We Spent Our Tax Dollars On Illegal Immigrants? Seriously, Why?!
Legal immigration is a great thing; however, immigrants that cross our borders illegally are making a choice to be criminals.
Ethics Alarms: Guest Post By Steve Witherspoon #1
Jack Marshall of Ethics Alarms posted a "Guest Post: Debates We MUST Have As A Modern Culture by Steve Witherspoon".
Sure Sign Of Acute Trump Derangement Syndrome
These people appear to be suffering from some kind of delusional paranoia that has consumed their psyche.
Some People Just Can’t Stop Lying
Some people just can't stop lying, they're called liars and liars are a genuine scourge to our society and culture. Just keep on digging you lying fools.
We the People Have Spoken!
We the People of the United States of America stopped the morally bankrupt “show me the man and I’ll find you the crime” open lawfare that has been intentionally used by the political left to persecute and criminalize political opinion and free speech that they disagreed with.
Make Up Your Own Mind
Was it a subtle call-to-arms targeting people that oppose Donald Trump becoming the next President of the United States of America, a kind of dog-whistle to people that are suffering from acute Trump Derangement Syndrome and may be prone to violence?
History: Truth or Fiction
How will historians actually write the events of this recent Presidential election?
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
On The 76th Day of Election…
The photo is of a protester carrying an IMPEACH sign on January 20, 2017 while he is taking a photo with his phone of the limousine that protesters set on fire. The photo was taken by Spencer Platt of Getty Images.
Abundant Life Christian School Shooting, Why?
Why?
ABC & Stephanopoulos Are Not The Only Ones That Defamed Donald Trump With Their “Convicted Rapist” Intentional Lies!
Why aren't all of these intentional liars getting sued, retracting their libelous written defamation, and issuing public apologies for their intentional lies?

Convenient Timing For A Forced Tooling Upgrade

The Broken Democratic Party’s Blame Game
I'm here to tell the weenies, that there is power in numbers and either you bare your teeth and raise a major ruckus or you'll be completely dominated by the extremists in your party. The choices are yours.
Imagine A Galaxy Far, Far Away, Where There’s A Fantasy World of Rhetorical Commentary
When I actually see blatantly obvious double standards and morally bankrupt injustice of people being falsely accused, especially when it's coming from a past politician who's now a blogger and should have extraordinarily thick skin to tolerate just about any rhetoric, I have a tendency to speak out rather forcefully.
What’s Wrong With The Democrats?
I think this political pendulum correction was needed before our society and culture slipped into an Orwellian type of totalitarianism. The way the political left has been presenting itself in the last 15+ years is almost like a religion or a cult, opposition to their chosen narratives is considered pure heresy with all the negative connotations that goes along with that.
Now The Open Marketplace of Ideas Is Considered To Be The Dark Ages?
It's kind of like the old "frog in the pot" metaphor, people aren't unaware of how their thinking is anti-free speech and how that kind of thinking threatens to our society and culture because those thoughts developed so gradually that it made them seem normal.
Post 2024 Presidential Election Analysis From The Landfill
The extreme political left created a anti-Constitution and anti-American societal, cultural and political mess and We the People are so damned fed up with their nonsense that we chose to vote for an unethical, loose cannon mouthed, asshole narcissist that happens to be pro-Constitution to turn the tides and drag the political pendulum back from the brink.
My Election Day Experience
Since I retired on January 1, 2024 I had time to be a poll worker without having to take time off of work to get it done. I figured it was time for me to step up and do my part. I've seen many others perform this duty over the years and I've always been one to thank all the poll workers that I came in contact with regardless of what poll station task they were doing.
Can Past Presidential Election Statistical Trends Teach Us Anything Valuable Today? [UPDATED]
Since our votes have a tendency to reflect our views on what's happening in our society and whether voters think we're on the right path, the following is looking back 40+ years at voter trends.
I’ve Made My Decision, How About You?
This Is A One Issue Election: Vote FOR maintaining the Constitution, anything else is completely unacceptable!
Morally Bankrupt Progressives
This is another blog post where I pick on the low-hanging fruit from an extreme progressive. It's another piece of evidence showing me that our society, culture and the core foundations of our country are being undermined by morally bankrupt propaganda narratives that gullible sheeple swallow as if it's all fact.
Progressive’s Cancel Culture Is Guilty Of Corrupting Minds
Cancel culture is a malignant cancer infecting our society, it takes otherwise moderately minded people and turns them into anti-American cancel culture fools that will do anything to destroy what they oppose.
Here’s What “I” Expect From Politicians
The purpose of this is to make a list that's as reasonably complete as I can of tings I expect from politicians. I'm starting the list with the first things that pop into my head and I'll add add to that list as I see fit. I encourage you to post comments with your expectations.

“The Wisconsin Alliance for Civic Trust” Is One Helpful Solution For A Better Tomorrow!
It's time to set aside political differences of opinion and past rhetorical differences to work together to achieve a goal and use the clout of the masses to change all our tomorrows.
Independence Day In 2024
Independence Day 2024 should be another year where we gather together to celebrate the birth of our nation and the foundations that bind us together, but something seems different this year.
How Cancel Culture Destroys Our Culture One Small Step At A Time
Cancel culture is a malignant cancer infecting our society. It can take otherwise moderately minded people and turn them into snarling anti-American cancel culture fools.

Are “We the People” Irretrievably Broken?
I think it's fair to say that we have reached a major societal and cultural crossroads in the USA.
Political Propaganda – Arrrgh!!!
I'm already sick and tired of being sick and tired.
Hope in the Midst of Cultural and Political Chaos: Wisconsin Alliance for Civic Trust
I encourage everyone to find an organization like WisACT, step up to the plate, take some individual responsibility, bridge the political divide and be the pebble in the pond to make a difference.
Shifting Responsibilities
Regulating the actions of law abiding citizens because criminals break the law is a rapid slide into the abyss of totalitarianism.
When “Settled Science” Is Not Settled And The Fact That It’s Not Settled Is Intentionally Being Hidden From The General Public

My ChatGPT Experiment
Make up your own mind if ChatGPT is a useful tool based on what I provided or conduct your own experiment. Things like the internet, firearms, vehicles and ChatGPT are all tools created for a purpose and it's your choice if you choose to use them or not, but if you do choose to use them, remember that how you use them reflects on your character.
Please Steer Me Towards Hope
Based on observed cultural, societal and political patterns, I see the 2024 election as being a societal and cultural disaster for the United States of America. No matter who is elected, the reactions are going to be bad, and they’re likely to be very bad.
Consider The Following…
Remember; our Constitution is useless if the dominant totalitarian bureaucracy will not enforce its provisions.
Republicans Are To Blame For… Wait, What?!
Republicans are literally trying to prevent illegal immigration by physically stopping them at the border while the political left is literally enabling illegal immigration in every way they possibly can and yet these delusional people are blaming Republicans?
Low Hanging Fruit: Rhetorical Cowardice, Anti-American Advocacy Journalism & Anti-Civility
Let me make something very clear, fascist Nazi's were terrible people, they were one of the 20th century's best examples of pure evil, and calling someone a fascist or a Nazi when there is no fact based evidence to support the claim is pure unadulterated HATE SPEECH!
The 4th Republican Debate [UPDATE]
Overall, when it comes to politics, I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired.
Is Our Liberty Already Dead?
Patrick Henry's professed personal conviction of "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death" is now quaint. If 21st century progressives were truly honest, they would profess their personal conviction; if you disagree with them, "Fuck Your Liberty".
A Biased Narrative Is Being Built [MULTIPLE UPDATES]
The political left has shown its pattern of propaganda lies within their narratives so many times that it’s beyond me why anyone would blindly accept any narrative that the political left, their supporters and their lapdog Pravda-USA media actively push?
You Can’t Fix Stupid!
IT’S THE CONSTITUTION STUPID!
Hypocrisy Destroys Genuine Integrity
Genuine integrity simply cannot exist when hypocrisy is present. Hypocrisy is a cancer that silently eats away at ethics and morals. Hypocrisy is one of the root evils that causes unwelcome, unethical and immoral changes in our society and culture and it needs to be confronted head on and stamped out when we see it.
Toxic Political Rhetoric!
A wide swath of the population on both the political left and right have completely flushed any facade of civility and are now openly verbally attacking each other with impunity and resorting to physical violence as recourse for having a different opinion. Let the far-reaching ripples of your rhetorical pebbles be ones that unite not a tsunami that divides.
Moving Beyond Atmospheric Carbon Propaganda
Knowledge is power and moving beyond all the propaganda surrounding atmospheric carbon and electric vehicles and understanding facts is paramount to a reasonable understanding of the issue, and if that means swimming around in a pool of calculations until that light bulb of understanding lights up, then so be it.
Like Clockwork…
A violent firearm loaded itself, drove itself to a mall, got out of the car, walked itself into a mall area and shot a bunch of people until a valiant Police Officer confronted that firearm and shot it dead.
Inquiring Minds Want To Know! [UPDATE NOTES]
Recently my curiosity drove me to look into the amount of carbon that is put in the air from burning fossil fuels and I've learned some really interesting things in the process and I bet they aren't what you would have expected, they most certainly weren't what I expected.
Electric Cars & Reducing Atmospheric Carbon
Are electric cars going to make a significant dent in the carbon emissions both globally and here in the United States to make a real difference and turn this predicted catastrophic apocalypse around?
Guest Post: The Political Exploitation of Children
As far as the left is concerned, children, like anyone and anything else, are just pawns. They are preserved or expended depending on what they do for the cause. In this case, preserving the right to abortion above all other rights and expanding it into the third trimester and even up to the moment of birth is away to guarantee votes from single women whose numbers are already off the charts with the Democratic Party. It’s part of the worship of self that has become the Democratic Party’s undergirding philosophy.
Epidemic Levels Of Absurdities Are Infecting Our Society
Who would have thought back in the United States of America's bicentennial celebration year of 1976 that in less than 50 years the solid foundation of morals, ethics, critical thinking, logic, common sense, liberty and the Constitution that the culture of the USA has been built upon would be flipped on its' figurative head and undermined to the point of utter absurdity.
Our Last Effective Non-Violent Barrier Against Totalitarianism
We can’t allow our last non-violent barrier to totalitarianism to be destroyed by irrational totalitarian hive-minded people!
What Happened To Common Decency When It Comes To Exposing Minors To Sexually Explicit Materials?
This bastardization of moral ratings is NOT a positive cultural progress taking place, it's negative cultural regression destroying morality.
What Would You Call It?
The move towards speech censorship is a terrible anti-American, anti-culture/society, anti-civil, and anti-constitutional pattern, it's unethical, it's immoral and it's just plain wrong for our society as a whole and for the morality of individuals. Our society is rapidly moving towards complete moral bankruptcy and anarchy and the censoring of free speech is leading the flock of ignorant sheeple away from liberty and straight over the metaphorical cliff into the abyss of open persecution, tyranny and eventual Orwellian political totalitarianism.
Global Atmospheric Carbon & Fossil Fuels
21st century apocalyptic global warming advocates are telling us that we must immediately cease to use things like gas stoves, gasoline powered cars, coal & gas fired power plants, natural gas, propane, jet fuel, etc to stop the imminent global warming disaster that always seems to be right around the corner but every time we turn the corner there's nothing there.
Guest Post: Insidious Stealth Mind-Control Is Spreading And I Have No Idea What Can Be Done About It
It is well-established that when a mind lacks the linguistic tools to conceive of certain thoughts, those thoughts become impossible to conceive. This is why tight control of the language was so central to Big Brother’s control of the populace in “1984,” and, it seems clear, why current aspiring power-mongers on the Left are increasingly employing censorship and linguistic manipulation to herd a lazy, badly-educated and apathetic public into virtual pens where they can be controlled and relied upon to support their betters.
Being Silenced By Unethical “Progressives” Is Becoming A Badge Of Honor
I now present to you the transparently obvious toxic hypocrisy of progressives, who have become the activist mouthpieces of the political left, that is stabbing civility in the back and adding to the already deep divide which is destroying our society.
Faux Racism Accusations & Transparent Racism Double Standards
How can the public not see the in-your-face double standards and non-logic regarding racism that's being rammed down the throats of our society all for the purpose of controlling what people say and do?
Honest Survey For Democrats: What Ideology Fits You Best?

Global Disinformation Index
Our culture is under attack from every possible angle and either you choose to actively oppose this cultural shift towards totalitarianism or you become a hive-minded cult-like sheeple drone, lose your Liberty and follow your fellow drones off the proverbial cliff into a totalitarian oblivion.
Wisconsinites Must “Share In The Blame” For Chicago’s Gun Violence? [UPDATES]
Over the years I've gotten the impression that Humphrey thinks of himself as some kind of thinking intellectual, well maybe next time Humphrey will react a bit less, set aside his obvious bias and critically think more before posting such ridiculous nonsense, after all, he's the thinker of Caffeinated Politics.
Could this be Evidence of Systemic Racism? [Added Poll]
Based on the race of all those involved could this particular incident be used as plausible evidence that systemic racism exists in the Memphis Police Department?
Rep. Adam Schiff: Immoral Propaganda Liar
Rep. Schiff is doing the same thing he's been doing since 2016, he's fabricating another false propaganda narrative, a lie, to feed to what he apparently sees as sheeple and the political left's lapdog mainstream media complex (Pravda like) will willingly parrot his known lies.
Typical Reaction: Hateful & Bigoted
Violent crime is a very serious problem and it seems to be growing in frequency, but punishing law abiding non-criminal citizens by either stripping or limiting their individual Constitutional right due to the illegal actions of criminals is not only illogical and lacking any critical thinking but it's wildly immoral to the point of being pure evil.
Fear Is A Hammer & We’re Nails
When fear sets in across a society, people are spending more time looking over their shoulder at what’s creeping up on them instead of planning for a positive future or they’re simply planning their future built upon their fears.
Interesting Timeline Information [Important Update]
What I've heard from the media is how Trump egged the protesters to riot and lagged a long, Long, LONG time before tweeting to the rioting protesters to be peaceful. Was I lied to by the media and the House committee?
On This Day For Giving Thanks…
Wow, this such a powerhouse of a blog thundering across the known blogiverse, yippee!
Open Letter: Stanford Academic Freedom Declaration
Be one of the pebbles in the pond and please consider standing up for freedom and liberty and adding your support to this open letter.
Dane County Ballot Question, Is It A Lie? [Updated]
Shouldn't an advisory question on an official ballot accurately represent the existing law that they're trying to repeal, or is intentionally lying to voters how they manipulate voters to get their end result?
Fear Mongering Politicians
It seems to me that politicians spend their time extrapolating cherry picked statements to absurdity and outright lie about those they oppose so they can incite fear in the electorate. When are all these politicians going to pull their heads out of their ass?
The Supreme Court of the United States Should Strike Down Affirmative Action
Race has been used as a cultural dividing factor for far too long, it's time that We the People strip the nation of this Affirmative Action blight and stop using race to divide the nation into opposing tribes and judge people "by the content of their character".
Delusion: It Could Never Happen In Our Back Yard
Wake up people, the patterns are there!
What Happens When Americans Openly Ignore Their Own Blatant Self-Evident Hypocrisy?
The Democratic Party, their totalitarian shifting ideology and their immoral tactics have driven me away and I'm quite likely irretrievably broken with all things related to the Democratic Party. I will vote AGAINST Democrats in all future elections until they pull their collective heads out of their immoral totalitarian asses. No that doesn't mean I'm now a card carrying Republican.
Interesting Trend In Entertainment
Now I think we've all heard that in some ways what we see in our entertainment world can normalize certain things in our society and can actually drive social trends but I really don't know if that is statistically provable; however, if it does normalize and drive social trends then what we are seeing being intentionally normalized is so far off what's actually considered "normal" in our society with regard to the LGBT community that I think there is some obvious virtue signaling motivation behind it.
Who Is Assaulting Our Society’s Building Blocks?
When Democrats claim an election was stolen and the President is illegitimate, it’s justified; when Republicans claim an election was stolen, it’s fascism and a threat to Democracy.
Pointedly Accurate Correlations
I recently read a profound comment posted by a regular commenter on Ethics Alarms that feeds directly into the theme of my blog to critically think about things that change society. I don’t think I’ve ever seen more pointedly accurate correlations between a very well known past totalitarian cultural shift and our ongoing modern totalitarian cultural shift.
Appearance of Impropriety [Multiple Updates]
This single action by official agencies of the United States government against a previous President of the United States that publicly opposes the current administration and who is a likely candidate for President of the United States in 2024 will obviously be looked at as an appearance of impropriety, political persecution and tyranny.
Society's Building Blocks
