Now, at the time of the Obama administration, Obama and I did a lot of warring together. In the beginning with very little success. The Arab spring was, in general, a failure. There are still pockets of beautiful democracies, and liberty in the Arab world. But we overthrew states, that never really became whole again. […]
The world is heading for the Third World War. The trouble in Ukraine, will, if we do not stop it, turn into a real war with guns, helicopters, tanks and ships colliding. At the same time, these wars will turn into mayhem and destruction in the West, especially in Central Europe because the islamist insurgency […]
We are truly moving away from the Obama doctrine, that Barack and I made under his presidentship. Why? I guess conservatism reflects liberalism, and right now, we are reentering at very strict cultural marxist trend in the European mainland. Specifically in Germany and Sweden. France is still very pro the Democratic/antiislamist ideas that was the […]
So, as I have discussed before on the blog, the tech community needs to understand its role in history. I mean, AR headsets, augmented reality, bitcoin all these new tech tools are, in themselves amazing. The meta verse and all that, BUT if we do not see ourselves in the long history of tech, we […]
Joe, listen, I am not a true, rich opinionator of an international statue, I am just a poor guy living in Denmark, with a host of problems around my neck. The police is after me, my ex. is a terrible problem and so on and so forth. I am friend, right, not much of a […]
When we talk about the internet, we still need to understand what it is all about, in order to plot a course ahead. The internet is the realisation of the Danish physicist Niels Bohrs attempt at making an open world. It is still formulated into ideas as open source, blockchains, that is based on open […]
Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. This is a lesson, that the new internet tycoons need to take to heart. To be a jew is a to be Mensch, that is, always forgiving, always seeing the positive part in someone you don’t know, spur for positive growth, help those in need, do something for […]
One of the things, that really is a problem in the current state of affairs in regards to democracy, is the lack of understanding of mr. Bohrs project; the internet. The idea was, that open source, open discussion would lead to higher understanding between the citizens of the world. Essentially the internet is a tool […]
There has been a lot of discussion on the relationship between the Christian communities of Israel and the state of Israel. Now, I do not know the details of the debacle. I am not in Israel, even though I would love to be there, one of my friends has just returned from Israel, and it […]
Listen Joe, getting things through congress is a fight, it has always been like that, and it will always be like that. WWBD, what would Bill do. You know what he would do, he would get on his stallion, and fight his way down the valley, drawing his six-shooters for another day. Point being, that […]
Listen Joe, I think you have to face the fact, that the Build back better plan is not going to fly. Why? Because it lacks focus. I think there is a great willingness in the Republican Party, to find reconciliation, but you still need to make plans, that they will truly accept. So here is […]
There has been a lot of debate about the paper, that the current commissioners made in the EU bureaucracy. Seriously? Putting beard on the Virgin Mary. The spirit of Christianity, and here at Christmas time. To me, this is beyond evil and respect less. I have, with both the Biden and Obama administration done a […]
Listen Joe, you can’t fight everybody. You can fight some, with success, and then find peace with others. International politics is a chess game, you have some friends and some enemies. When we did the peace with the Iranians, we at the same time made peace with Russia, so we could focus on China. Thereby […]
Ok, we need to get the show on the road in regards to the police reform we should do. If we can get it to be a reform that is made across the aisle, maybe it can actually support a more unified United States of America. What can I contribute with? I can contribute with […]
Well, when you think about it, one of the good things about the current world, is the depth on which it is developed. I have the supreme honor to see the Beatles documentary, that Disney+ has produced these days, and be as it may, these guys really changed the world in their days. But did […]
You know, I know a lot about humility. Through my life, I have been a hotshot. First I was one of the greatest stars of Copenhagen in my dancing days. Then I started in communication, and instantly became a hot shot in that. Over and over, until now, a hotshot in philosophy. My experience is, […]
Ok, well, things are shaping up. We are on a new course, that will, hopefully, make a better America. First of all, leaving the idea of unity, will bring America down. The United States of America has always been that, and should continue to be that; United. So, please, stop the violence, the vilification, the […]
Listen Joe, don’t get me wrong. I have nothing against indigenous Americans. I have always had a good relationship with them. When I was sick, they did some kind of healing, and it helped me get well again. The same goes for gays. I used to be a dancer, and in that milieu I met […]
I know, that the US is all in the ropes about the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict. But, and listen, this is an area, where I personally have A LOT of experience. At least, experience with police brutality, that is unfounded in law. So my advice woul be; be realistic about the corruption of the police. I […]
In the light of the Rittenhouse verdict, I believe, that it is important, that we take a step back and look at it from outside. What was really the match that lit the fire, was it the police brutality, or was it the frustration of the Covid internment. After mr. Trump was president, the frustration […]
Well, we are now living in the aftermath of the first COVID internment. These are my reflections on it, in the light of the Rittenhouse verdict. Frustration is NOT an excuse for Revolution. As rev. Martin Luther King said and did. We as black or mixed people should not be judged on the color of […]
Well, we need to get back on the track, back to the sucess we had with Obama. We do not have his genius in oratory, but we still have his mission. We need to get back to that mission to succeed. What was it? It was to create hope and change. How do we do […]
Well, now seeing the current development in the view of the last two revolutions, that of the Flemish/anglo saxon revolution (Erasmus and Thomas More), and the french revolution, we can safely say, that the stakes are pretty high. What happened at the last revolutions? Massive wars of independence and bloodshed without end. When printed books […]
Well, one point that Aristotle makes, that I believe is really true, is the fact that Democracy has the most intelligence; the mass of the intelligence of the people beats the intelligence of the best thinkers. He figures, that the ideas that the people have is filtered through so many people, that the conclusions are […]
Ok Joe, I have been reflecting a lot on the current situation. To be honest, we are loosing, why? Becuase we lost the war in Afghanistan. I know it is a hard point, I know, it was all done in the best intentions, and it was good to get the soldiers back. But Americans hate […]
Well, as Tolstoi the great Russian thinker said; all good families are alike, all bad families are different. The point is, goodness is one, badness comes in all forms and shapes. That is something to ponder there. Goodness makes for a very stable, similar and uniform world. The lore of the ancients are pretty straight […]
One of the things that I believe is lost in time is the humanist tradition of Europe. I am a humanist, my family have been humanists for seven generations, and there are traces left here and there in Denmark of humanists. But the environment or tradition is largely pushed away by neomarxistthinking, business ideas and […]
Well, the climate change meeting is over, and I think we can already see the framework of something that might actually work. First of all, the fossile free plan is pretty awesome. Can we make a world that is run on clean energy? The question off cause still remain unanswered, but the path to such […]
When we talk identity politics and the ideas, that rule in many areas of academia, I belive we should discuss the alternative. I mean, if identity politics does not work, as it does not, then what is the alternative. These days I am reading the 16´th century academic; Erasmus. His work is REALLY interesting in […]
Politics is a craft. You need to get people around the table, and create solutions, that all can see themselves in. Doing that, is extremely difficult. When Barack, Joe and I developed a lot of the driving ideas of Baracks presidentship, we actually solved a lot of the problems we faced. Economically we made the […]
It seems to me, that the world is centering around a climate change idea. It is good in the sense, that it unites the world. I know, that many people have doubts about the wisdom of climate change. But if we understand the agenda in a positive and constructive manner. We can actually do some […]
The climate change discussions are essentially a profound discussion on the wealthfare of the world. How are we going to prioritize the development of the shared ressources. To understand how this can be done, I truly believe, that we need to UNDERSTAND the ways of the world. Essentially the world is bounced between order and […]
Ok, so there is a major summit on climate change coming up, and these are the experiences that I have from Denmark, that the world can use. First of all, there are essentially two categories to work on. The first is nature, and the second is renewable energy. Often these two categories tend to get […]
So, one of the things, that I have wondered a bit about, is the fact that, I never get any enemies really. And the enemies, that I try to pick, get really sad about it, and try to get to be friends again. At least internationally, not really here in Denmark. But, I have wondered […]
I have been thinking a lot about the late interview with the Suidlanders. It is a REALLY difficult discussion. On one side, I do not accept any kind of racism against blacks. I know how it is to be scorned and ridiculed. Right now in my town Aalborg, there is a lot of bad blood […]
The Suidlanders is a civil rights organisation of South Africa, demanding justice and rights to be reinstalled to white people of South Africa. I have had a conversation with Mr. Roche who is a leading spokesperson for the organisation. To hear him speak is like a window into another reality, living in a system where […]
These days South Africa is in turmoil, and the rainbow nation, that everybody hoped to make, is deteoriating. For me, as a spiritual person, this makes me sad. Now, dont get me wrong, sacrifice, injustice is what it is. It has no color. I was a great fan of the whole process of antiapartheid, Desmond […]
When you loose some in your life, as I have just done due to a divorce, you need to be careful what you do. All of a sudden you have new responsibilities, but also new freedoms. I am conservative, and I am a family loving type of person. I adore my kids, and would do […]
Ok, we are in trouble. Radical islam is rising in the West. One of my very good friends mr. Lars Vilks was just assasinated, most probably, and the attacks are in legion these days. Lately the attack on the British MP Sir David Amess, is another attack in a string of attacks. The enemy is […]
Understanding ethics, or moral virtue, you need to see your life in the glow of spirituality. One of the most splendid or indeed wonderful roots of ethics is the root of Phoenicia. Phoenicia being an ancient culture of commerce, learning and spirituality. When we jews erected the first temple of Israel, we were helped doing […]
When we talk about light opposed to darkness, us being humanists, what is the “light” we talk about. “The shining light at the top of the hill”?. To understand this, we need to go to the root of the understanding. The root of the understanding is the Egyptian lore of the ancients. These illustrious people […]
You know, to unite, you need a way to do it. You need a path, some waypoints, a little help from your friends. But at the end of the day, you need goals and destiny. The American dream has always been the deal of all Americans, but it is through lack of attention to that […]
Well, my life has been a bit of a rollercoaster. From the beginning with the Mohammad cartoon crisis, over the Obama administration and now to some kind of reconciliation. I have given it a bit of thought, on how to keep the balance between the international work and the national work I do here in […]
Dear Joe, well things are shaping up a bit. Here are some further reflections to your current development of the political work. First of all, you need to be realistic about the socialistic ideals. If you start taxing according to progressive tax, you need to watch the borders more. The point is, as Lycurgus, the […]
In the discussion of Social media, what seems to me to be lacking is not really discussion in social media as such, but more an attitude to discussion that is within a humanistic/democratic frame. We have discussed democracy, where social media have failed miserably. To remedy the whole censuresystem is almost impossible, it is so […]
Ok, it seems to me, that I have been involved in so many agendas, that it is a little hard for me to truly stay on top of them all. But I am doing my best. Here is something about the US. Equality Equality is a liberal virtue. We have equality between people, different colors, […]
Dear Joe, things are seeming to get into gear I think. Here are my reflections on the current issues. First the war against China. Trying to cut out China from the free markets, is a master stroke. It is much more effective than what Trump did, but it comes with its own set of caveeats […]
Ok, having established the basic principles of sustainability, that of balance of things. Balance between man, nature and business, we can move on to the practical. I will return to my trip to paradise island, but just to give you some inspiration to what we can do with climate change, here is an overview. There […]
America is truly the home of idealism. Take Mr. Abraham Lincoln and the civil war. He fought not only for the power over all of the US, but most noticeably for ideas. That all men are created equal, that slavery is tyranny. In a way, the revolutions, especially the French revolution had a very fertile […]
Ok, lets get on with the tale of Livø. The day after I arrived at Livø, this is a true story, I went to town. The town of Livø, is a small tourist spot that was built as a carehome for mentally disabled persons, that lived at the island 70 years ago. So at its […]
