NYTimes David Brooks Rebuked by 'We the People' as related to European Style Democratic Socialism
http://nyti.ms/1Q8i7yS
Like most in the upper tier (15%) of the American Socio-economic ladder - David Brooks is out of touch with the rest of us (85%) majority who work hard, pay our taxes, got our college degrees (or not) and can't get ahead of the rigged game. These smart and in touch retorts from young and older folks all over America to a recent Brooks column ranking on Senator Sander's European Style Democratic Socialism! (see above link)

#Beyonce Talks About Embracing Her Sexuality! Sorry - Not Buying it!
I have pasted a reply to this Beyonce video from my facebook account and am sharing it here.
Beyonce's important views on racism issues etc. are lost in her overt sexuality. I teach young teens in NYC everyday - most are not sophisticated enough (yet) to decipher her Booty/Sexuality Feminism - which I feel is not empowering as much as objectifying. In an age of sky rocketing STDs & unwanted pregnancies - it's irresponsible. She is a great talent and Role model for millions all over the world. She does not need to get down on her knees and always be half naked sticking her butt out etc. Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston & many other very talented women did not do it. Let the music do the talking! Just Sayin'
Yes - I knew this from interviews before her pregnancy thus my previous
comment. Obviously you, Beyonce and millions of her cult like following
are not getting what many of us (women & men - not mansplaining) are
trying to convey. Namely that we are living during a very superficial
time where looks are too important and people's character and depth is
not important enough. Beyonce is fortunate in that she has always been
protected. First by her stage parents as in a Mother and a Father who
were dotting on her from day one until she made it, and then she was
protected ever since by bodyguards and an ex-gangster rap star who
became her husband. Therefore she can safely explore her sexuality in
front of the camera for the whole world to see and because she is so
talented and charismatic - to emulate. Unfortunately - most young people
- especially from lower socioeconomic backgrounds do not have safe
environments and often get into bad situations based on influences such
as this overt sexuality Beyonce is so adamant about expressing. I am
singling out Beyonce because she is currently the Queen bee but this
shallow superficial vibe has dominated American mass media for way too
long. From Hollywood starlets of yesteryear, model mags, old and new
porno, and the more recent talent-less reality shows with beautiful
bimbos like Paris Hilton and now the Kardashians ruling the mass media
realm. It's sad and pathetic and says a lot about how sick our society
is. Look at the huge number of young girls with eating disorders, body
images issues, STDs and unwanted pregnancies, depression, anxieties,
drug addictions etc.etc. Yes - teens are very influenced by whoever
rules the media when they are growing up and right now - there are no
really intelligent Pop Star role models out there for kids to look up
to. And please, making a fortune is not about intelligence as much as
luck for many of these current unsophisticated celebrities. Look at the
latest horrendous scene at Kanye's fashion happening where he sings "
Yeah you hit my bitch before me but that's okay because i am rich"
right in front of his zombie Kardashian family with his 3 year old
daughter in Mom's hands. Disgusting and millions worship Kanye and the
Kardashians who also exploit their sexuality for ratings and of course -
$ - which is all this generation seems to care about. Spiritual values
are surely lacking and you can't take any of this with you when you die -
so good luck with that. Finally the 8000 pound gorilla in the room are
men (apes) who are still primitive and dangerous - especially after
drinking legal and promoted alcoholic beverages. In a time where so many
women are victims of violence via men - it is plain stupid to promote
this type of overt sexual behavior. Now I will hear from young
uneducated wanna be feminists - saying that men need to change - not
women expressing their sexuality. Yes - and I want world peace and all
starving children to be fed too! But we are where we are evolution wise
and trust me - based on world events like 30 wars average at any given
point in time and the world wide violence toward women and children from
men - it will be hundreds if not thousands of years before mens'
testosterone calms down via mutations from social conditioning. But we
live in reality and must take cautions while trying to change it and
make it a better place. You are either part of the problems or the
solutions. Research and figure out where you stand. God Bless this Mess!
