Hey, you got the narration working! Yay.

As for the post, agreed. I belive in God, Castro was evil and i never met him or his boy Trudeau.

FYI, it appears that the phone app has AI to mechanically read the text, but the desktop app does not. Don't ask me why. I've been doing my own narrations (often but not always) in place of having Robot Girl read it. The link to my narration shows up in the laptop app, but not the phone app. None of this is by my design.

Legend has it that Trudeau is indeed the son of Castro. His mother and Castro were in the same place at the same time. Ideologically at least, they are nearly identical. Neither has any respect for individuality. In fact, they see individuality as an abnormality that must be cured by any means possible, including force.

1) Robot girl reads all my Substack. I read on the app. This is the first column of yours she read. Did you do anything differently?

2) I read a fairly persuasive account of Trudeau’s parents visit to Cuba 9 months before his birth, back in the days of swinging, free love and all that. (Also on Substack) meticulously researched. The photos reveal a startling similarity.

I work almost entirely from my laptop, and I am only just now realizing the differences on the phone app. I know we discussed this at length previously, and I still don't know why you couldn't get the robot girl narration. Although Substack hints at revising the narration feature, I haven't seen it.

Remember, Justin Trudeau is Pierre Trudeau's son (or perhaps not), and Pierre was a piece of work in his own right.

I wonder what it was like to live in America in 1890. My father was born in America in 1907 before income tax and the federal reserve

He went to Canada when he was 4 and I was born there so I grew up in Canada

I returned to the USA some homing instinct I guess

As ask people born in America how could you sell yourselves into slavery by accepting income tax

And they say look all the stuff we get

I say like what?

Now the government is Leviathan as Hannah Arendt said over 350 years after Thomas Hobbes asked for it

But people think that’s ok

Will the Americans have a Moses to lead them out of Egypt to give up on slavery?

In the Sinai some wanted to go back

Our elections are controlled so the outcomes are meaningless

It's all very sad. Many people came to America to escape totalitarianism in their down country. And now, it's here. Thy can't understand why we volunteer to bring upon ourselves the very things that they sought to escape from.

Something inside me thinks I should have lived in nineteenth century America. But that's not to say that it was ideal then.
