With all the important news taking place in this world of injustice, violations of human rights, wars where young soldiers are dying, innocent civilians are being slaughtered , millions of people are starving, corrupt governments are killing unarmed protesters, and human slavery thrives, the news media in America has more important priorities as to what is important to report.
In our once proud, shining light of democracy, the United States of America continues to sink into a third world cesspool of a crumbling nation, broken infrastructure, huge unemployment among our citizens, education in crisis, a disappearing middle class, loss of freedom, exploitation of workers, a fiscal crisis of biblical proportions, immigration gone amuck, a cancer of lying, corrupt politicians, crazy extremists on the right and left in politics, and so much more.
The American population has been so dumbed down that they can't even name the 50 states, let alone give a damn about anyone but their own selfish selves, and so much more. but they all know that breastfeeding is an "important" issue that they are experts about.
In the midst of all this sick insanity, our media flails around reporting on meaningless topics, the more stupid the better, the more moronic they are on it immediately, like bees on honey.
What is now now being debated all over the country concerns a Mom breast feeding her 3-year-old son as he stands on a toddler chair. Soon the politicians will be doing sound bites on this major problem facing America. I can hear it now, "breastfeeding is Unamerican, not patriotic".
In the 24 hours since TIME Magazine sent out that photo, a nation that is normally outraged at BAD mothers who neglect their children was suddenly outraged at a good mother and that was only reinforced by the way the kid was crawling all over her during her interview on the Today Show:
NBC BREAST FEEDING INTERVIEW
And some people find this repulsive.
Maybe because it's so Third World and we think we're better than that. Think again, we are already a third world country and it has NOTHING to do with this breast feeding mother.
Deflection and denial are always great tools of propaganda used to hide the truth and so being gay now gets replaced momentarily by the new hot button issue of this mother.
People hasten to judge in order not to be judged themselves. We judge others instantly by their clothes, their cars, their appearance, their race, their education, their social status. The list is endless. What gets me is that most people decide who another person is before they have even spoken to them. What's even worse is that these same people decide who someone else is, and don't even know who they are themselves
Whatever is behind the outrage, since when did it become OUR business to judge a mother with a child whose only problem seems to be that he got squirmy on the Today Show? If she was smoking in front on him, feeding him beer, or forcibly tanning him, sure, but this is what breasts do!
I realize we've come to believe that nature intended the female breast to sell video games, cars and Sports Illustrated. Otherwise, I suppose, it would have been designed to automatically retract after the kid is weaned.
But how is it that a kid sucking on his dirty disgusting blanket at age three is normal, but breastfeeding at age three is not?
Why can't a woman choose this without being scolded? Seems that women are bad if they choose to have an abortion, breast feed 3 year olds, or simply exercise their right to do what they want with their own body. Who is this women hurting that it's anyone else's business?
I really don't give a shit about these false, idiotic issues and instead want to know how we are going to save our country from dying, preserve the planet, and provide for ourselves, our children and grandchildren.
Not only is it still STANDARD in some countries, it's supplemented for older children with pre-mastication, which is where the mother pre-chews some meat, and then shares it.
Hey Time Magazine, there's your NEXT cover! A hot Mom serving warm mouthburgers.
C'mon America, surely there are more important things to discuss before we all become a country of imbeciles. Or has that already happened, but no one told us that this is already a country of judgemental idiots.
