Today is an overall good day in politics but we also have to be balanced in our reckoning. There are significant issues in the United States that need to be resolved and will take a significant change in policy from the Democrats norm. - The Young Turks The Young Turks are really covering this fantastically, I’ll end up going back to watch the whole coverage. https://dirkkelly.com/blog/xrwa-at-perth-festival-feb-2020/ Fri, 07 Feb 2020 02:27:00 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/blog/xrwa-at-perth-festival-feb-2020/ Magnificently captured by #MilesTweediePhotography Miles Tweedie. Powerful imagery from Extinction Rebellion Western Australia at the shameful Fossil Fuel Sponsored Perth Festival. Our lives are poisoned, not only by the emissions released by fossil fuels, but by the seeping of corporate propaganda into how we perceive reality. Capitalism shapes the world that we interact with, numbing us to the destruction caused to our planet, our lives, and our relationships with each other by forces focused solely on profit. https://dirkkelly.com/technology/building-hugo-pwa-gulp-es6-sass-bootstrap/ Sun, 08 Dec 2019 20:38:18 +0800 https://dirkkelly.com/technology/building-hugo-pwa-gulp-es6-sass-bootstrap/ I’ve been using Hugo across a few different projects for almost 2 years now. Recently the Bootstrap team announced they’d be replacing Jekyll with Hugo for their docs which seems like pretty solid validation for the project. I hope others decide to take Hugo on as their static site generator, I think the community would benefit from having additional developers as it receives more exposure. To help those who are looking to give it a go I thought I’d put together a how-to for what I would consider to be good practice for building a site in Hugo that supports ES6 and SASS. https://dirkkelly.com/blog/moving-forward-in-2020/ Tue, 15 Oct 2019 16:00:00 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/blog/moving-forward-in-2020/ I’m sorry for being so rude to you, for treating you with the disdain with which I actually feel for myself. I’m sorry for going off and turning into someone you really don’t recognize anymore, for not giving you the opportunity to learn enough of who I had become through that journey. Writing would have helped this, it would have helped me communicate to you what I have been working on, what I have learnt, and experimented with, and come to understand about the world that we live in, together. https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/jeffrey-epstein-suicide/ Sat, 10 Aug 2019 20:00:00 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/jeffrey-epstein-suicide/ Jeffrey Epstein, the “billionaire hedge fund manager” who, allegedly, systematically lured hundreds of teenage women into prostitution within his mansion and penthouse, on his private plane “The Lolita Express”, and on his private island; who, allegedly, “entertained” the likes of Bill Clinton, Donald Trump, and many other powerful people.

As their federal government is shutdown over the building of this wall the diehard fans of the command in chief are throwing their pennies into the fire engulfing the nation.

For all the Americans out there, it’s the worst time of year once again: Thanksgiving. It’s a holiday celebrating tricking Native’s into helping you before you kill them, brown colored food, and being forced to spend time with your racist extended family so there’s not exactly much to be excited about. This year we wanted to put together a handy guide for you on how to ruin Thanksgiving and show your family that there’s not all that much to be thankful for, that they should feel guilty as fuck for flying home, and that the collapse of the environment and our civilization are imminent. https://dirkkelly.com/politics/noncompete/why-are-you-working-8-hours-per-day/ Sun, 18 Nov 2018 00:00:00 +0600 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/noncompete/why-are-you-working-8-hours-per-day/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7YZUWEu-x0 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/spiders-web-britains-second-empire/ Mon, 24 Sep 2018 00:00:00 +0600 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/spiders-web-britains-second-empire/ Who wants their government to be led by people who’s assets are hidden, who’s financial transactions are conducted anonymously offshore? Ordinary people are paying taxes, rich people are not. So this is inequality and this is leading up to popularism. Today offshore is the way elites and multinational cooprrations conduct affairs, tax evasion is the way business is done.

World Socialist Web Site has covered today in a deep diving article that calls out the latest CIA staged attack, and warns that it will be used to justify an invasion. https://dirkkelly.com/politics/contraspin/being-julian-assange/ Sun, 08 Apr 2018 18:53:45 -0400 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/contraspin/being-julian-assange/ source: Being Julian Assange In 2016 an accused serial sexual predator ran for the US presidency against the notoriously corrupt wife of a previously impeached President – who is also an accused serial sexual predator. That these facts alone were insufficient to invalidate the entire race is testament to the audacity with which corrupt power operates in the West, and how conditioned the public is to consuming the warped byproducts of its naked machinations. https://dirkkelly.com/politics/jimmy-dore/israel-russia-amazon-2018-04/ Sun, 08 Apr 2018 14:11:39 -0400 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/jimmy-dore/israel-russia-amazon-2018-04/ https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/pogo-trump-big-fat-love-find-common-ground/ Sat, 07 Apr 2018 23:21:22 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/pogo-trump-big-fat-love-find-common-ground/ Thank you Pogo for spreading the message of love, with the voice of a sad, sad, broken, person. https://dirkkelly.com/collapse/shaun-charlottesville-true-alt-right/ Sat, 07 Apr 2018 23:02:22 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/collapse/shaun-charlottesville-true-alt-right/ https://dirkkelly.com/politics/jimmy-dore/bernie-smeared-over-mlk-barack-obama-comment/ Sat, 07 Apr 2018 20:12:50 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/jimmy-dore/bernie-smeared-over-mlk-barack-obama-comment/ I sit here deeply concerned that I suspect we’re leading our nation on an integration trip that has us integrating into a burning house.

Not only would it address thousands of police shootings every year, getting rid of guns goes to the very heart of police conflict and poor relationships with communities of color. As Mitchell Duneier (1999), Peter Moskos (2009) and others have observed, police interactions in low-income communities revolve around issues of respect. Police demand respect, civilians resent disrespect, and interactions become confrontations that escalate into mistreatment, abuse, and violence. https://dirkkelly.com/politics/quartz/case-for-disarming-america-s-police-force-noah-berlatsky/ Wed, 28 Mar 2018 21:17:12 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/quartz/case-for-disarming-america-s-police-force-noah-berlatsky/ https://qz.com/602682/the-case-for-disarming-americas-police-force/ In 1974 American criminologist Paul Takagi , an expert in police use of force and community policing, proposed an idea that still seems radical more than 40 years later. “Perhaps,” he said, “the only immediate solution at this time is to disarm the police.” Ending police access to armored vehicles is one thing. Taking guns out of the hands of the police is another issue altogether. In fact, Obama’s restrictions on military equipment aside, most of the official responses to police brutality and violence today have involved providing police with new kinds of equipment, from Tasers to body cameras . https://dirkkelly.com/politics/jacobin/the-socialist-case-for-gun-control-nivedita-majumdar/ Wed, 28 Mar 2018 20:46:17 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/jacobin/the-socialist-case-for-gun-control-nivedita-majumdar/ Nivedita Majumdar “The Health of Nations” Jacobin As socialists we appreciate the violence of capitalism in denying basic necessities like decent housing and schooling to large sections of the population. But do we wait for the overthrow of capitalism and reject interim solutions to remedy those ills?

It’s not a question of whether these things will happen, you know they will, something always happens, and it’s going to be in your face, and it’s going to make you feel horrible. Teenager guns down his classmates because of violet video games Cop shoots a child because black teenagers are out of control The US government bombed a wedding because the groom hated freedom Your stupid dickhead of a president opened his dumb fucking mouth again So you want to ban all guns because horrible people do fucked up things that result in the death of people who look like you. https://dirkkelly.com/philosophy/concentration-of-wealth-and-power/ Mon, 26 Mar 2018 22:28:37 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/philosophy/concentration-of-wealth-and-power/ 10 Principles of Concentration of Wealth and Power Concentration of wealth yields concentration of power, particularly so as the cost of elections skyrockets, which forces the political parties into the pockets of major corporations. This political power quickly translates into legislation that increases the concentration of wealth, so fiscal policy like tax policy, deregulation, rules of corporate governance, and a whole variety of measures. Political measures designed to increase the concentration of wealth and power which in turn yields more political power to do the same thing, and that’s what we’ve been seeing. https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/the-gun-debate-ignores-empires-power/ Sun, 25 Mar 2018 19:52:17 -0600 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/the-gun-debate-ignores-empires-power/ Of course people are jumping on Killer Mike because he appeared on NRA TV to provide a position that taking away people’s guns will not solve the issues America is facing. I have worked as a tireless advocate on the behalf of children and disenfranchised women in society, I’ve also worked with gun groups like Georgians’ Against Gun Violence, so I say if there’s a table to be sat at, a gun owner needs to be there. https://dirkkelly.com/collapse/accepting-collapse-and-moving-beyond/ Sun, 25 Mar 2018 16:22:29 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/collapse/accepting-collapse-and-moving-beyond/ I have to admit that I haven’t been fully honest, in a lot of my writing I’ve implied that it’s important to get engaged in community in order to change policy to avoid extinction.

It sounds like an event, a catastrophe that dominates everybody’s attention, like an explosion, or a market crash, or a war. No, it’s not that simple, nothing in this interconnected hypernormalised world will ever be simple. Collapse of our civilization, of this dominant culture, is a continuing and long process, it has no clear beginning and it’s end will only be defined in the history books. https://dirkkelly.com/collapse/how-can-the-enemy-be-this-friendly/ Fri, 23 Mar 2018 21:55:40 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/collapse/how-can-the-enemy-be-this-friendly/ I feel so much love in this place, this community in Colorado where I am surrounded by amazing people who are doing all they can to make the world better.

Crazy how the week that story left the media it was because Russia had apparently obviously failed to kill an old spy, in London, on ally territory. This ever shifting narrative is the work of an empire’s mass media which is dedicated to manufacturing consent to allow America to start a war against Russia. https://dirkkelly.com/survive/pain-essay/ Tue, 20 Mar 2018 14:08:26 -0600 https://dirkkelly.com/survive/pain-essay/ Part of the problem is that death is not a part of our daily lives, we have a very curious escapist attitude about death and have managed to distance it through a bizarre form of institutionalization. What is required is a change of heart, in order to change our hearts we need to see things differently, neither romanticizing or denying death is honest or useful, it’s more useful to be accepting of death as part of the grit of daily life. https://dirkkelly.com/philosophy/getting-in-trouble/ Mon, 19 Mar 2018 17:42:20 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/philosophy/getting-in-trouble/ I hadn’t been using my blog because I was afraid to, afraid of what would happen if I wrote about what I was thinking.

The hardest thing to come to terms with is that most of the species is ignorant of the dangers we face, or responsible in their own small way for pushing us closer to the edge. Alone you cannot save us from the impact climate change will have on our ability to produce enough food for our survival. https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/the-greatest-threat-to-all-life-on-earth/ Thu, 15 Mar 2018 00:04:32 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/the-greatest-threat-to-all-life-on-earth/ Russia is not going to launch a nuke. Islam is not going to kill western values. Climate change is already killing people daily. The American government will kill everyone if it can’t maintain its control over everything. War with Russia is not acceptable. America has no right to wave a moral finger at any nation in the world. America is not a democracy. America is a corporate plutocracy. America is a dying nation. https://dirkkelly.com/survive/we-will-be-destroyed-if-we-remain-divided/ Wed, 14 Mar 2018 15:52:46 -0600 https://dirkkelly.com/survive/we-will-be-destroyed-if-we-remain-divided/ Under the oppression of tyranny we learn helplessness.

These justifications are not only unacceptable, they’re also lies. The dominant culture is driven by neither Democratic or Christian values which it pays so much lip service to. Democracy and Christianity are frameworks for creating equality among people, in theory. In practice the dominant forms of Democracy and Christianity have been co-opted by the powerful to serve as tools that concentrate wealth and power to reward themselves and punish everyone else. https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/i-love-americans-i-love-russians/ Fri, 02 Mar 2018 22:41:42 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/i-love-americans-i-love-russians/ I love Americans, I’ve even been in love with a few of them, they are good-hearted human beings, for the most part, like most people, for the most part. I love Russians, I am the son and brother of Russians, they are good-hearted human beings, like most other people.

Well, I agree with part of this argument, capitalist competition has to be acknowledged. BUT, the argument also says that capitalism satisfies people, and I’m going to claim that the way the system uses technical progress generates widespread frustration, not satisfaction. https://dirkkelly.com/technology/socializing-is-work-social-media-is-exploitation/ Tue, 27 Feb 2018 20:12:18 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/technology/socializing-is-work-social-media-is-exploitation/ Social Media platforms use your content to make money.

They’re some of the lucky ones in America, though not truly that lucky in the scheme of things. The company they work for is, comparitively much more generous than other American organizations. Around that time our office was also subjected to the picketing of the Verizon store below us, the shouts of the subjugated workers all day long were distracting to our workers, who were sent home early because it was obvious no work was being done. https://dirkkelly.com/collapse/america-will-collapse-earth-will-boil-humanity-will-perish/ Fri, 02 Feb 2018 00:00:00 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/collapse/america-will-collapse-earth-will-boil-humanity-will-perish/ America Will Collapse As an Australian who spent 6 years in the hyper-capitalist center of the world (New York City) I’ve had to improve my coping mechanisms immensely as the harsh reality of massive inequality was shoved in my face.

Having a direction is reassuring, seeing yourself achieve progress is motivating! I haven’t found my “direction” to be something that I talk about that much though, as mostly it’s met with disregard, the New York Executive wants to become a Farmer, sure, let’s see that happen. https://dirkkelly.com/survive/2017-ben-howard-anthem/ Sat, 30 Dec 2017 00:00:00 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/survive/2017-ben-howard-anthem/ 2017 hasn’t been a good year, let’s face it, 2018 won’t be better.

The dominant culture which has exploited the Earth to build a fantasy world of stability and certainty for the few, is starting to see the walls crumble as the exploited rise up on the left and right.

If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them. In this formulation, I do not imply, for instance, that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion, suppression would certainly be most unwise. https://dirkkelly.com/collapse/derrick-jensen-violence-of-the-culture/ Wed, 21 Jun 2017 00:00:00 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/collapse/derrick-jensen-violence-of-the-culture/ The last two days I have been consuming all I can find that covers the thinking of Derrick Jensen. I wanted to share some of the pieces I had found so far before continuing on my research of his work. Jensen has spent his life advocating the protection and restoration of the environment, educating and writing about how to become engaged in the fight against the destruction of our planet.

Understanding what this presidency focuses its attention on in its first days gives us an idea of where the administration is pointing our future. I had personally been thinking about these 100 days a lot lately, and honestly, it was making me extremely depressed, despondant, and anxious. https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/noam-chomsky-on-donald-trumps-first-75-days/ Sat, 08 Apr 2017 00:00:00 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/noam-chomsky-on-donald-trumps-first-75-days/ Recently Democracy Now interviewed Noam Chomsky on Trump’s first 75 Days as President , here’s some key points I took away from it. On the alleged interference of the election by Russia, Chomsky points out that America is constantly interfering with world politics and overthrowing governments. If Russia and Trump were to have a more positive relationship this would not be a negative thing at all, especially considering we’re at a really dangerous time. https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/donald-trump-attacks-syria-just-like-hillary-would/ Thu, 06 Apr 2017 00:00:00 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/donald-trump-attacks-syria-just-like-hillary-would/ My Response I am disappointment in Trump, to clarify I have no faith in him, I’ve never supported him, I don’t respect him. However I do know that before he became the president he was not part of the central powers that are intent on destroying the world in pursuit of more power. This was the one thing I thought he would do differently to Hillary, that he would opt for less conflict in order to focus on business. https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/resist-donald-turmp/ Wed, 05 Apr 2017 00:00:00 +0000 https://dirkkelly.com/politics/america/resist-donald-turmp/ I will begin to resist by writing more. Trump is proving to be the perfect distraction for the Republican party, he creates outrageous executive orders that consumes the public’s social media feeds.
