Español: Es el pueblo latino capaz de manejar el principio de la democracia?

March 02, 2021 15:00 - 25 minutes - 23.9 MB

Luego de unos momentos de meditación y un análisis completo creo que podríamos llegar a la conclusión que latinoamérica y aún los latinos que se mudan a Estados Unidos o que se crían en Estados Unidos no son capaces de manejar bien la democracia y retornan sistemas o bobber nantes fascistas o dictatoriales. Esta actitud se muestra no solamente a nivel político sino que también se demuestra a nivel social. Déjame explicarte en este episodio el cuál es la parte 1 --- Send in a voice message:...

Say the phrases black lives matter or blue lives matter and immediately people get bent out of shape.

Baseball began this weekend in Florida but that's not the big event that I was talking about.

Edgy Rock N Roll behavior or a criminal mentality?

February 15, 2021 16:00 - 25 minutes - 24 MB

We all knew that Marilyn Manson was a different type of rock and roller back in the 90s but as the years have gone by something more sinister was happening and it's apparently coming out in the open.
