Welcome to AmeriKa

Where Power’s invisible hand works relentlessly behind the scenes,
ensuring those of us who don’t belong stay obedient —
and grateful for the crumbs.
Are you listening, Voter?
You better watch out because Power is hungry
— and you're the main course.
Zombie feasting on brains — symbolic of obedience and manipulated thought

Do you think you’re safe? If You do, You better rethink — and do it fast.

Amerika Dangerously Dumb!

Indoctrinating You Tenderly!

Fanatics in a temple.
Brainwashing Wasn't Born in the USSR — It’s as Old as Power Itself.

It started when humans allowed someone else to tell them what to think. In America, indoctrination comes dressed as freedom — but it’s the same old process: feed you lies, kill your questions, reward your obedience....

Neither a Democrat nor a Republican.

I left the GOP for the Democrats — and now I'm questioning them too. This isn’t just about politics. It’s about how both parties are failing us, and how the real problem starts long before the ballot box...

Digital Zombies: How Games Train You to Obey.

The games you play, the ads you skip, the scrolling you can’t stop — none of it is harmless. Beneath the fun hides manipulation, misinformation, and control. What if the real threat to your mind isn't political — but digital? Promoted by stars like Samuel L. Jackson and Chuck Norris, and backed by names like PayPal and Apple...

Raising Uninformed Voters.

What scared me in a Cuban classroom is now happening in America: obedience over truth, control over learning. DeSantis, Trump, and others aren't just shaping policy — they’re shaping minds...

Artificial Intelligence: Empty Promises, Holy Profits.

Low pay, shady practices, and... hmmm, high-tech? My experience with Appen says a lot about what’s broken in the gig economy. And trust me, Meta is just fine with it ...

A Great Wall? Really?

Illegal immigrants crossing the border.
Illegal immigrants crossing the border.

A wall can work — if you're willing to add a minefield and shoot-to-kill orders. Without that, Trump’s wall reeks of PR hype, fear-mongering, and a suspicious Made-in-Who-Knows-Where label. From the Berlin Wall to the Great Wall of China, this post explores how history has already exposed the futility of building barriers against human desperation.

Worlds Apart, Closer Than They Seem: from Havana to Miami

Trump or Death

A Cuban should know better.

Back in 1959, Cuba needed a change —but Fidel Castro was not that change. Decades later, around 1994, I conceded to a friend that Venezuela, too, needed a change. But I warned her that Hugo Chávez was not the answer. She didn’t agree. Twenty years later, sometime in 2014, I found myself trapped in a similar conversation, this time it was about the U.S.A. Again, I agreed about the need for a change. But, again, the warning signs hit me cold and hard. And, again, I could not hide my fears. Donald Trump was not that change. Period. Sure, I will not agree with an American who supports Trump, but I understand why they might. An American knows little to nothing about the aftermath of the 1959 Cuban Revolution. An American didn’t experience Chavez' rise to power. Americans have no frame of reference for what happens when a leader promises salvation, only to tighten his grip once he grabs power by the neck. But a Miami Cuban born and raised in Cuba? C'mon! A Cuban should know better. A Cuban should know what a dictator looks like. A Cuban should know by heart that a dictator doesn’t seize power overnight — he wins people over first with empty promises, resentment, and hatred — a hatred so deep, so blinding, that it drags the past into the future. A dictator promises to turn the have-nots into the have-it-all. He claims they’ve been robbed, that the system is rigged against them. He guarantees that he alone can make things right. He doesn’t offer slow, steady progress—he promises immediate transformation. And to do it, he demands absolute loyalty. A Cuban should know this story by heart. A Cuban should recognize when history begins to repeat itself—when a leader rises by fighting a nonexistent enemy, by making grand promises, by demanding unwavering faith. A Cuban should know that a man who tells the have-nots they will have it all is always planning to take everything for himself. So while I can understand why an American, raised in a stable democracy, might not recognize the warning signs, I cannot understand why a Cuban—someone who has seen this play out before — would ever support a leader who follows the same dangerous path.
A Cuban should know better, for sure.

Life in Cuba is far worse than the grim, chaotic portrayal often seen in Miami. To understand why, one must delve deeper into the inner workings of a dictatorial regime.
