I just got back from 4 days of driving through california and nevada, and i saw several very long freight trains parked on long stretches of tracks in the boonies. personally, i think the freight strike was not averted. one train for sure was parked mon thurs through a corridor in the nevada desert near vegas that they are always moving through. these had oil containers as well as closed freight shipping containers and car carriers.

I knew there was fuckery, but I didn't know about the ones you mention! I know they hit ave pissed off the remaining staff enough for them to want to strike.

I was at LA Union station the day the strike was supposed to start, and there were news trucks and a tension in the air with people talking about it. It was such a weird non news story when It didn't happen.

News isn’t news, it’s fear porn and 99% false. In fact, 98% of everything on TV is to force viewers to behave and think a certain way. California is the brainwashing state.

Very true, but sometimes we turn it on to see the party line.

Unless it’s the news about derailments, firings and corporate fuckery you just commented about.

Or was that original research?

I’m actually with you on this by the way, and I also think it’s deliberate.

But it’s just funny that we do the same thing they do. “OUR news is the right news!!!!”

That’s exactly right, it’s battle of perception, only a fraction of derailments were reported, and a fraction of food processing plants being burned down..

How ever when you know yourself fully, you know human nature fully, you know what humans are capable of and can tell if a story’s true or not from your own inward-tuition.
