social roles for public betterment



 when the wealthy elite complain about 
government programs to help the less well 
off, are they forgetting, or embarrassed, that 
their social role is in part to provide the 
funds for public betterment




you want kids safe?  tell them the truth, 
give them options and ideas for 
self-protection, be safe to them, treat them 
like intelligent humans who are merely 
inexperienced in some of the ways of the world

(and they'll be much mentally healthier as well)





categorizing by gender only 
perpetuates gender myths and inequality

rather, categorize by level of ability



it's not about the money
the cruelty is the point
we do need to organize and fight back against the bullies



Has anyone else noticed Musk's intense bipolar energy?



It may come down to excellent education
-- not as a political football or a means
to profit -- based on values of the benefits
of an intelligent, aware electorate;
providing the building blocks to create
the great ideas of the future, the solutions,
products, breakthroughs, new enterprises
not yet imagined, to take us further
toward our best potentials.



Racism, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia
Homophobia -- all of these are more
wholesale hates are basically a form of
social tribalism that claims:  You are not
proper people according to our teachings.



Though given every consideration in 
public discourse, media bias, and 
political maneuvering, the ideas/ideals
of the Conservative Christian Right
are for the most part abhorred and find
no favor with The People.
