Okie, Democrats have figured out a solution for dealing with folks whose views they disagree with. Cancel them! Remove their ‘free’ speech! Throw them in jail! That’s what fascistic communism is okiedokie, and that’s what the Democrat Party has become, arrogant fascistic anti-science communists-for-the-billionaires, taking that torch from the Bush Crime Family and running further and wider with it.
“Re his latest rant against wearing masks, he has little sensitivity toward others who use them for a variety of reasons other than “fear” instilled by “big pharma”. Gene Dierkin politely explained the many other reasons and was slammed in return. Immunocompromised with cancer, I appreciate Gene’s support.”
Gene didn’t explain one reason for wearing a mask, at all. The science part, not the ‘because I say I wear it for this so it works’ part. Can you explain to me how wearing a mask helps anyone with cancer or other immunocompromised health issues? Just explain it, in simple terms. You say a KN95 mask has a benefit for folks with cancer. What is that benefit? It’s an easy question.
“As for the King of Conspiracy”
Thank you for the tittle! LOVE IT!!!
“…what a silly and trivial thing to obsess over.”
Nope, not trivial. Anti-science neurotic freaks contributed to one of the most disgusting things our society has ever DONE TO OUR CHILDREN. The teacher’s unions’ masked our children at school ALL DAY LONG FOR MONTHS AND MONTHS TO APPEASE YOU NEUROTIC ANTI-SCIENCE FREAKS. Those children suffered because you mask/vax freaks don’t understand science. And I have a daughter, so you will not see the end of my rage toward Covidiots about that one, ever. THE CHILDREN WON’T FORGET WHAT YOU DID TO THEM AND NEITHER SHOULD YOU.
“It’s sad to see someone so caught up in hate and vitriol, who is so quick to direct it toward others in our community.”
Yeah, I get pretty fuck*ing angry at injustice and stupidity, always have. Only the unashamed fascistic communists get vitriol though, love the rest of ya!
“Btw, didn’t he vow to stop posting his rants on bbq just a few months ago??”
Yup! And then I post three more! 🙂
Also, who are you okie dokie? Are you brave enough to share your name with the rest of us on the north coast? Or do you prefer cowardice, the shadows, etc.

Dear Cast, Crew, and Community,
I am overjoyed to share our remarkable success with THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG.
Together, we have set new records, including the biggest opening night ever and becoming the first show to have all nine performances in a row with an attendance of over 100.
Additionally, we closed our run with a near-sell-out crowd, an extraordinary accomplishment that speaks volumes about our collective efforts.
To the cast and crew, your talent, dedication, and hard work have been inspiring. Every performance was a testament to your skill and commitment, and the energy and passion you brought to the stage were palpable.
To our coastal community, your unwavering support and enthusiasm have been integral to our success. Your laughter, applause, and presence made every show special and memorable.
Thank you all for making THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG an unforgettable journey. Here’s to many more successes together!
With deepest gratitude,
Frank Squillo

I wrote a piece about this awhile ago explaining how the governor can legally pick a qualified person to fill a vacancy that happens when a judge steps down before their term is up, so the person the governor picks is on the ballot for the next term unopposed, and wether you vote for them or not they will be elected to that position for a number of years, when due to a prior agreement with the governor they will step down before their term is up so the governor can now legally pick another person to fill that position. What the governor is doing is legal but goes against the spirit of the Oregon Constitution which states that Oregon citizens get the opportunity to fill judicial positions by voting.
The agreement between the governor and the person she selects: that they step down before their term is up so that the governor can select another person, is called collusion. Collusion is when two or more parties secretly agree to defraud a third-party (Oregon citizens) of their rights or to accomplish an illegal purpose. Some types of collusion are against the law. And this one, as it denies a right given to us by a constitution, I believe violates the law.
This affects you in more ways than you know. It locks in one party forever. A party that pushes the globalist agenda.
Gerrymandering?
FROM COMMON CAUSE:
*Is gerrymandering a problem in Oregon?
Only twice in the last hundred years has the Oregon legislature successfully completed redistricting without intervention by the secretary of state or the courts. For decades, the legislature failed to redistrict at all, so that the party in power could maintain its advantage, resulting in growing distortions in the ratio of voters-to-representatives from one legislative district to the next as population sizes shifted throughout the state.
Oregon law requires that district lines are not to be drawn for partisan advantage, so partisan data is not analyzed publicly. But in reality, legislators share this data behind closed doors, and are well aware of how various options will affect party advantage. Oregon needs to end the “wink and a nod” sharing of partisan data behind closed doors and make this information available for public scrutiny.
I believe that if we had a non-political or “balanced Supreme Court”** – A person or group could challenge this “redistricting” and probably win as what Oregon has been doing has been heavily criticized by others.
Democrat party control has basically cemented itself in perpetuity in Oregon, they control all of the courts. What happens after that is corruption with a capital C. I would like to say that I have been a Democrat for most of my life, ending just recently in the last several years, as I have noticed that the things I stood for as a Democrat do not exist in either the state or national Democratic Party.
Our country, the United States of America, has had the best constitution of all the countries on this beautiful planet. Guaranteeing
the most freedoms to all its citizens – but no more. We are in “a quiet war with silent weapons” We now ban free speech, we arrest peaceful demonstrators, not violent ones. Parental rights are going out the window, (see HB 2002.Your minor child’s reproductive organs are controlled by the state of Oregon. That bill gives the state the right to determine what sex your child is).
Our agencies and court systems are weaponized against us. We have corrupt voting systems, and the constitutional right to have a gun is constantly being attacked. Crime and property destruction are a constant in many towns and cities in Oregon, and the perpetrators if arrested are put right back on the streets where they repeat their behavior. The media cleverly turns us against each other, even families, and divided we fall!!! And we are falling. Let’s try uniting!! Let’s try watching our state legislature in action!! There ARE a few, very good legislators in both parties who really care about their constituents. You need to know who they are.
**I did have a suggestion to remedy the “judges running unopposed” and I asked a Senator and a journalist what they thought of my suggestion. I was told that any one running against the governors “pick” if they lost – would not be able to do business in Oregon. A high price to pay for running for a judicial position!!
Event reminder! This Saturday, June 22nd.

Nyx is not quite a year old, friendly, and a fast learner. When you pick her up, she purrs and loves to have her neck and head rubbed. She is well socialized and comfortable in her foster home. Nyx is active and wants to play often, chasing the elusive red dot or going after small foam balls thrown across the room. With her mellow & playful personality, we think she would get along with a friendly cat or dog, and probably children who have gentle hands.
Nyx eats both wet food and some crunchies, and uses the cat box with no problem. She has been spayed, vaccinated, and is healthy with no special needs, except to have a loving family of her own who will appreciate her beauty & companionship. If you are interested in adopting Nyx, contact United Paws. You can fill out the Adoption Application below or email us at unitedpawshelp@gmail.com. You must be 21 years or older to adopt through United Paws.

Some response,
You wrote:
“I haven’t quite been able to figure out why anti-vaxers and anti-maskers are often very pro-Russian”
I would translate your statement thusly: “I haven’t been able to figure out why folks who don’t want government mandates for an experimental MRNA-technology forced on the public, and who don’t want to put that technology into their own bodies at all, ever, and who don’t validate the use of KN95 surgical splash-guard masks as any sort of impediment to airborne viruses, are often very against NATO and The United Sates of America violating the terms of peace from WW2 and trying to start a nuclear war and/or World War Three with Russia.”
And for me, the answer is clear: Peace, Love, Freedom.
You also wrote that such folks are also “very hateful of our own country with all its flaws…”
Mmmmmmm….the patriot anti-vax anti-mask anti-war crowd is hateful of America???
I’m confused on that part of the sentence.
You wrote more:
“…and also despise people with different views of society, politics, and health.” That’s a mouthful dude. I despise lots of folks for lots of reasons, as you do, as we all do.
And you wrote:
“As for masks, Andy, you have no idea why anyone chooses to wear a mask but insist on your right to pre-judge and condemn them.”
Gene, when you see someone wearing a MAGA hat, what do you think about them? We all have the right to pre-judge whomever we want. And as I wrote, I feel bad for most of the folks still wearing masks. I stated that I think they have been victimized by Big Pharma and their associates. I am stating that they are victims. The ones condemning them are the vax-makers that made billions off the fear they generated, the fear they put into those people’s hearts.
You also wrote:
“What or who makes you So, So Special?”
I don’t know, right!!! I’ve been wondering about that for years!!! But I sure as sh*t am special, eh Gene??
“I’ve known some patriarchal dudes in my life, but… wow!”
Not sure where that came from, but I’m more of a feminist than most feminists are these days.
And in my post I clearly FOUGHT THE PATRIARCHY by putting the war-pigs-slaughtering-girls-in-Ukraine by…well wait a sec, lets find that Wall St Journal piece I posted on this site months ago, where the ‘war with Russia’ patriarchal war-pigs made an ad telling Ukrainian girls they were brave feminists for dying for Zelensky and Lynsie Graham. They were brave for getting killed by American bombs via Russian tanks and artillery.
Eh, this CNBC propaganda is good enuf. Here is some actual, sickening, patriarchy…masquerading as feminism. Keep bombing Ukraine Democrats, the Ukrainian feminists are fighting sexism! (Not so much when they’re dead)
www.cnbc.com/2024/03/08/ukraines-female-soldiers-are-battling-against-russians-and-sexism.html
I also pointed out that trans boys competing against girls in high school and college was bad for girls, and in doing so I was fighting the patriarchy (trans men). Where did all the butch dykes go anyway? I got along with them pretty damn good!
Doh! :0
