Clarification: When I write, I don't prepare or organize my ideas, I just write what I would say if I was talking to you in person, so sometimes my blogs end up a little messy. I don't even proof-read what I write before posting it so you may find grammatical mistakes and poorly written sentences. Sometimes I'll read my blogs a day or two after publishing them and I may re-write things that weren't too clear and any embarrassing grammatical mistake. Also, English is not my first language, so I apologize if reading my blogs become a struggle. Of course, if this is the case, I would imagine you wouldn't continue reading.

Maybe Donald Trump Isn't That Bad...

 

I was just reading one of the top links on Reddit's frontpage titled "Donald Trump A ‘Threat To Peace And Prosperity,’ German Vice Chancellor Says". As always, I was interested to read the comments section because these type of articles sometimes generate discussions that are a little more rational than the typical dreadful Facebook political threads, which are mostly huge one-sided circlejerks. Even when Reddit is not immune to horde-mentality behavior, I find it easier to get closer to the truth by reading Reddit's discussions, where articles with sensationalist and misleading titles get scrutinized and the arguments often come with informative sources. In fact, many times I choose to only read the comments section, and that's exactly what I did.

How Democracy In America Is An Illusion


 
Useless Political Thought Of The Day.

Imagine is the US decided to split into 2 independent countries in such way that land, wealth and means of productions were divided equally, and a peace treaty promising no wars or invasions between them. The two countries would be Democrat US and Republican US, two countries full of happy people that are being ruled exactly how they want to be ruled.

Abort Mission (Thoughts Of An Ex-Pro-Lifer)

The abortion debate is one of the most delicate and controversial issues today. It's a powerful topic that ignites passions like no other topic, and it's the reason for lost friendships, fist fights, and even terrorism and death. For this reason, I try not to talk too much about it, or at least, I try not engaging people on the subject on my own social network profiles. I know lots of good people, at a personal and professional level, who don't share my same views on this matter. That doesn't mean that I don't understand where they are coming from, because I do, as I was once one of them.
