Charles Bursell Presents

The strange and dangling account of a onetime reporter. Also: how to become an influencer. www.charlesbursell.com

On one hand: Sex and gender are beautiful ways to express our individuality and to relate to each other within a wide spectrum of the human condition. On the other hand: Dictating sex and gender norms is senseless, arbitrary, and ultimately dangerous. Expectations of so-called “masculine” and “feminine” traits are promoted by idiots. Trans rights are opposed by bigots. Binary models are unscientific, thinly veiled hate disguised as innocent ignorance. The whole pile of BS is shoveled by cranks, bullies, bigots and morons without a leg to stand on. They are wrong, stupid, and mean.  www.charlesbursell.com

Dear Santa, here is the list of things I want for Christmas. It’s pretty much the same list I ask for every year. No war Universal healthcare Reverse the climate crisis Stop AI from killing us Reimagined public safety Family rights No more bigotry Abolish borders Education reform User owned social media Noncorporate journalism Free and fair elections Abolish money (or at least profit!) Democracy for everybody Social Anarchism! Yours Truly, Charles Bursell    www.charlesbursell.com

The written “War Against Humanity” manifesto of Natalie Rupnow, the latest school shooter, should not be ignored. While her ultimate action was indefensible, her diagnoses were often accurate and should be understood. www.charlesbursell.com

It’s easier to criticize the current system than it is to recommend solutions. People always ask me, after such critiques: “well then what can we do?” A proper response to that question would take several volumes. So, here’s volume one. 

My take on the CEO shooting. Violence? No. Revolution? Yes! Also: It’s up to us all to protect the truth as the presidential transition is as bad and worse than the warnings.  www.charlesbursell.com

Right now it’s all about the Orange Man’s strategy of humiliation. Yes it’s comically ridiculous. It’s also deadly serious. Don’t let anybody tell you it’s not.  www.charlesbursell.com

A clearer look at the election outcome. There is no MAGA mandate, but their Fascist regime is beginning to take hold nonetheless.  www.charlesbursell.com

Taking a break from politics, we talk with some lovable losers about how they might improve their game. So, not about politics at all. Really, not at all. Honest.  www.charlesbursell.com

Fascist America is here. Now we need a new political movement strong enough to defeat it. 

If you were waiting for a bandwagon to jump on, you’ve got one. It’s not too late to get off the couch and vote so you can celebrate with the winners. www.charlesbursell.com

Democracy is on the ballot because her opponent’s complete and utter lack of character is the central force in how he would govern.  www.charlesbursell.com

It’s democracy this time, but someday it’ll be Capitalism on the ballot. Also: starkly different closing arguments, Rudy ordered to hand over the goods, and Jon Stewart’s blind spot. www.charlesbursell.com

For one family, moving to a swing state so their votes would count seemed like a good idea, that is until they met with mystery… and horror! Ooooh!    www.charlesbursell.com

You don’t have to like Kamala Harris or the Democrats. You can despise their policy on Israel. But if you don’t want Trump to be an honest-to-god stone-cold dictator, you have to vote for them.  www.charlesbursell.com
