as the um used to be republican group moves farther towards (old guard / whites supremacy) through the decades (nixon et.al.) they have moved to falling off the cliff and the continual call for democrats to move center has moved democrats further and further towards republican, in that several democrats seem to be republican light (15 voting with repubs recently). it’s further frustrating the terms right and left. in older eras, left meant sinister. and right is hardly meaning correct except that there is a subliminal confluence there. the gaming videos, beginning with shoot ‘ems, inculcated shooting as benign fun. and computer gamers apparently make great drone strike operators. the rise of the belief systems of (white supremacy) militia, news channels, podcasts, that fox “propaganda/news” is the media played on military bases, airports…. there needs to be media that is for equality, especially as msnbc is caved - article there today advocating that the bible is ok for u.s. history classes (hair on fire emoji). we need more than the pod saves series! the challenges to re-instate democracy are large, especially with schooling heading to lack of actual history, science… even as so many are at risk in the incoming administration, can we find resilience and hope?
