we need to create and promote a national project to educate and inspire the People to demand democratic rule for our common benefit -- it takes work and commitment, which seem to be out of favor
we need to fully fund so many projects to improve our lives, health, interactions, ability to thrive
we need to reassess our attitudes toward money and use it as it is meant to be, to account for the use of resources so we may more easily trade our skills to do what we best could for all
the truth is we are not Republicans or Democrats
We are people with hugely varying experience, ideas, values and cohorts
We are a species that needs to gather with others of our kind, and so create these labels to pretend those who we attach to them are the same.
remember democracy? where we get to debate our positions, look for the people who would best represent us, the whole competition aspect through which we find and refine our best options? This is well before the big day (days with early voting), when we ought to be searching far and near for the very best -- not cementing ourselves in a "safe" place which is anything but
dreaming a season of peace
I understand you are concerned
about those who threaten, who
hate your group, because they are
threatening you. Understand,
your real group is humankind.
The threat is people who enjoy
violent bullying, who feed on hate.
We don't just need a Not Trump
for our future US leader. We
need ab experienced, intelligent,
calm, resourceful, compassionate,
charismatic representative of our
best values to bring us forward
through vastly complex troubled
times.
Who do you see?
Can the underlying rationale to
criminalize abortion be for some
Christian Nationalists a means of
depleting the Black American
population? So many Black women
die in childbirth, both removing
them and their reproductive future.
There is no better world to aspire
to or find
We can devise our Earthly
lives to be kind.
Christian Nationalists are
pro-Zionist while viciously
antisemitic.
Develop, create, spread inspiring
excitement -- let a thousand
progressive projects bloom!
Understand, results may be
incremental, at times imperceptible,
until a tipping point brings another
leap forward.
Protest outside the offices of the
people who have the power to
make the desired difference.
Call them by name, and demand
they meet with the group's
representatives, live streamed.
Make sure to have knowledgeable,
persuasive representatives.
This in the US is not inflation.
Dollars are not worth less.
Rather, prices are "inflated"
regardless of the actual costs to
manufacture and distribute
products.
Maybe the problem is that what
the People want is not democracy,
but the pomp and glitter of
aristocracy. The Hunger Games
type society, where the poor are
made useful as brutal entertainment,
the wealthy privileged are entitled
as the ruling class.
