"Bring your desires down to your present means. Increase them only when your increased means permit." -- Aristotle "Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants." -- Epictetus |
Be Not Afraid! We Did It! He Will Be Gone Soon!Yes, he is a proven racist and misogynist. Yes, he has stoked hatred of and encouraged violence against people of color, women, immigrants, and the disabled. Yes, a large number but not a majority of voters were afflicted with the horrible diseases of anger, fear, and ignorance. Yes, he has violated every code of ethics and professional behavior from every honorable organization in the last 100 years. Yes, he has his supporters enacting fascist rituals that are directly out of The Lord of the Flies. Yes, he believes that an example of a good leader is Vladimir Putin, a man who secretly sends his troops into a foreign country and then calls them "volunteers" when they are caught or killed. Yes, he believes democracy is a tool to be used to his own ends, claiming fraud if he loses and claiming victory if he wins. Yet it is important to understand that this sick man only took advantage of deep divisions already present. His election is more a symptom than a cause.We will not be afraid. We stand against him. There is no doubt that some of his supporters will resort to violence. The KKK is celebrating victory. Anti-Semitism is running rampant. Attacks against minorities and immigrants are almost sure to follow. We will bear witness to the upcoming crimes against humanity and will we not back down. Jesus and Ghandi and Martin Luther King, Jr. will be by our side Do your part. Pledge to stand in solidarity against the monster's agenda of fascism, racism, sexism, xenophobia, and hatred. "The moral arc of the universe in long, but it bends toward justice." -- Martin Luther King, Jr.P.S. I spoke with two of my friends who are moderate Republicans. They both believe that the inflammatory rhetoric and fascist rituals will be replaced with what is essentially a typical center-right Republican adminstration and they downplay the fascism, racism, sexism, xenophobia and hatred and believe that it was all just to get elected. I pray that they are correct. However, we have seen in the past what has happened when certain segments of a society are demonized and de-humanized. Personally, I believe there are forces of hatred and xenophobia that have been irrevocably unleashed in the United States and it will be difficult to impossible to tame them until after much blood is shed. P.P.S. They were both wrong. BUT, here is hope for our future! Undividing America? The mother says she is a Born-Again Christian. Yet she voted for a monster who brags about grabbing pussies, separates children from their families and places them in cages, demonizes entire countries and religions, mocks the disabled, lies continually, and attacks war heros who were shot down by multiple surface-to-air missles and spent 5 years being tortured while he got a deferment from the Vietnam War because of supposed born spurs in his ankle, yet he was still able to play sports. What a fraud! |
