《In Review》Is History "Allowed" Repetition?
Advertisement
I hate to rant, but I can't let go of this.
Because the American news media agenda is "feed any fire, then sell everybody water".
Resulting in....cha-ching!
Beware of the "storyline".
Before Hitler and the Nazis, Benito Mussolini, of Italy, was Europe's first real dictator in the early 20th century. Before that, guess what, he was a journalist.
History only repeats itself when nobody learns the "why".
The most important part of a news story is "why" did it occur. What lead to the moment of the event.
Who today is the hungry rat knawing on this bone of ambition, power! And which network or journalist will try to achieve a Mussolini position.
It happened once before, let's pay attention!
North Korea, China and Russia have scary leaders. Maybe nice guy leaders are out of style. They are easily fooled.
If the wolf is at the door, we need a doorman that won't invite it in, then feed it.
It may be unpleasant to say "I smell a rat". But if there is one, someone should have the balls to say it and then do something about it before it breeds.
Maybe it's time to start being a little more scary instead of making everything equal.
The poor will always be with us. Equality is unsustainable.
Some work for their sprinkles and deserve them. Some will not.....always! It's human nature.
If we are not stronger than the threat, it will consume us.
I don't like bad behavior in leadership, no one really does.
I also don't like the inconvenience of brushing my teeth, going to the doctor, disciplining children, going to work each day, mowing the lawn, or cleaning up after someone, but the responsibility it there. Maybe an effective solution to a worldwide crisis is having a dad that will spank you.

Theodore Roosevelt said "Speak softly and carry a big stick.".
Today we need someone to speak loudly and make the world leaders afraid to displease the guys that provide all the handouts.
Also, stand on the neck of the media and cut their tongue out if they misrepresent facts or malignantly make up facts.
Pay attention out there!
We're getting close, we are leaning now and if we keep leaning, we will fall.
They stopped the Tower of Pisa before it was too late.
But we allowed the twin towers to go down.
I wish I did not have to write about this shit but I am compelled to!
I getting a little pissed off.
We should, all of us, get pissed off and turn things around.

Beyond the Horizon's Eye
It is less than two weeks after the event known as the Flux Causality, and two days after the Grand Council has put forth the edict demanding the immediate retrieval and deletion of all Stringhoppers. Finding such Travelers, however, is proving more difficult than expected. A young boy and his sister find themselves violently taken from their world to another, and soon thereafter are forcibly separated. Now sold into slavery, the young man must find not only a reason to survive but a purpose to carry him home. The journey has just begun, and the hardest step is always the first one. ~ This is my attempt at both the Xianxia/Wuxia and Portal/Isekai genre of fiction that I love, and the means to provide a story set in such guidelines, while distancing myself from some of the more common tropes. I do hope you enjoy the story I shall endeavor to tell. ~ Average post between 1000 - 3000 words. This is a work in progress, and will be edited and adjusted over time. If you’re interested in something a bit more GameLIT, you might want to check out my second story on Royal Road, “The Dawnfire Archives”. My newest story is a combination of both genres, but with a female main character at the helm. Feel free to check out "The Card Thief of Culnivar"!

Hanno, King of Carthage, has just lost his queen, and the Council of Elders threatens to take his throne. In order to preserve his dynasty, Hanno must take the Libyan citizens of over-crowded Carthage on a journey West, beyond the fabled Pillars of Hercules, and to the uncharted African continent below. There, he will encounter terrible beasts, hidden magic, and legendary titans. But the Council of Elders refuses to just let him succeed, and threatens to unite with the powerful forces of this unknown land, and halt the Periplus of Hanno.
