A Programmatic Note





April 7th, 2014

Should anyone care to know, of late I have sort of taken to ‘micro-blogging’ of sorts – for any number of reasons.  I do this ‘micro-blogging’ on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/, specifically at:  https://www.facebook.com/adam.trotter.5 , or “adam.trotter.5” on Facebook, or something like that); and I will likely continue to do so for the indefinite future or however long Facebook should choose to allow me to do so – or until whenever for something different for a while.  

Notably, I have historically been resistant to linking/pointing from my blogs to my Facebook account/profile/page.  But of late, as I said, I have sort of taken to ‘micro-blogging’ thereon.  I will still blog here though as well – again, should anyone care.  Actually, many of my Facebook posts are/were sort of a cataloguing of my blog ideas that I might/planned to revisit and expand into full-length blog entries here on Blogger/Blogspot (www.blogger.com , [blog name].blogspot.com).  But anyway, Facebook is kind of fun and I can often more quickly cover more ground there also (maybe).  So, feel free and welcome to check out my thoughts there on Facebook – again, should anyone care to.  You can comment all you want there on Facebook as well.  But, worthy of note and maybe ironically, I don’t really do the friend thing there all that much – as I sort of think of ‘friends’ as a personal issue.  But all are welcome to review my posts that are posted for public review – of which the majority of posts/entries are posted for the public (or whomever).  But also remember all are welcome to come back here to this blog on blogger (http://adamvernontrotter.blogspot.com/) to check out my thoughts here too – but I actually often note any new blogger blog entries on Facebook too, but not always.   


Oh yea…, if you would, don’t forget to look at the website once in a while, should you feel inclined to do so.  “TornadoTamer.org”  is only one site but can be located at any of the following website addresses / URLs:  http://tornadotamer.org/ , http://www.tornadotamer.org/  ,   http://adamtrotter.com/ , http://adamtrotter.org/, http://adamtrotter.net/http://tornadotamer.com/ , among a few others actually.    :)

Again, should anyone care:  My Facebook page is    https://www.facebook.com/adam.trotter.5 , (or “adam.trotter.5” on Facebook, or something like that) if I’m not in error – and hopefully I am not.   :)  Maybe we’ll see you there or hear from you there.  Thanks for looking at this blog post entry and any others of mine that you may have reviewed in the past.

Best wishes to all.

After thought (April 2021)
Since the majority of social media such as Facebook and Twitter have taken to capriciously censoring some expressed thoughts while allowing others with which those who control those platforms might agree, I no longer look to express many thoughts of any substance on those platforms.  Freedom of expression seems more under attack than ever before.  

For some further relevant explanation, See:

Political Crimes are always Followed by Further Attacks on Freedom

Mainland/Communist China Should Become Part of Taiwan! Taiwan Should Not Become Part of Mainland China!

March 11th, 2011

Regardless of the current falsehoods posted on the internet on sites such as Wikipedia.org – likely posted by the Western governments as well as likely being posted by others, no doubt – it would surely appear that the seemingly imprisoned peoples of mainland/communist China (Peoples Republic of China) would be better served to be under the rule of the nation of Taiwan (Republic of China), not the other way around. Taiwan does not block Freedom of speech internet sites such as Twitter and Facebook as does mainland China. Taiwan does not seem to repeatedly round up dissidents and human rights lawyers/activists and take them away to prisons from which they are never heard from again – as does mainland China. More than likely, mainland China probably executes any collected dissidents merely for the dissidents’ crime of wanting freedom of speech, justice, and human rights for the populace of the nation.

As far as I know, the people of Taiwan are free to state their thoughts on the internet on sites such as Twitter and Facebook and the Taiwanese can search the internet via Goggle for whatever unfiltered information they may desire. The residents of mainland/communist China can not use any of those sites to gain uncensored information or to openly speak their minds as the government of mainland/communist China either blocks or filters those internet sites from its populace. It would appear that if the populace of mainland/communist China were under the rule of the Taiwanese government, at a minimum, the mainland Chinese would be more free than they are currently.

Don’t even believe the politically correct ‘crap’ put on the internet that Taiwan is, and should be, part of mainland China. The Western governments appear content to support [the government of] mainland/communist China and the westerners also appear content to sell any support for the Freedoms of the one to two billion people in mainland/communist China in exchange for a seemingly never ending source of cheap [slave-wage] labor in addition to also gaining the ability to have western manufacturing operations in mainland China - which apparently are not subject to any anti-pollution laws nor subject to western employment laws either.

This blog entry is merely to state that the government of mainland/communist China appears as unjust and apparently needs to go away. This blog means no ill will to the good people of mainland/communist China. This blog reflects my opinion, my knowledge of the situation, and reflects reported news on the matter as well. Because, where I come from we are allowed and often encouraged to voice our opinions.
