To use the jargon of “The West”, one refers to masculine and feminine.  This is most emphatically not to imply it is about men and women, it is only colloquial to speak to the audience.  One can as easily refer to yin and yang or cause and effect.  And so, fewer people would be able to relate.  Balance is hopeful and would benefit everyone.

Kristine Berzina on Ban on Russian Oil and World Energy Markets

Kristine Berzina talked about the ban on Russian oil imports and world energy markets.–end of c-span info–If this is an example in Kristine Berzina of the leaders coming up, we surely have reason for hope.  Her perspective was authentic and she offered real ideas.
Meanwhile……..https://twitter.com/BenjaminNorton/status/1501744604198096896        –Economist Michael Hudson has long argued that the US war on Russia was actually a US war on Europe, to keep the EU subordinated to US capital
That’s exactly what’s happening now: European industry is shutting down as energy prices soar due to sanctions–end of leecamp info–
As bad as the Ivanka EU economic appearance—-https://www.aol.com/news/fix-breach-harris-clean-mission-013650243.html       –A day after the United States declined Poland’s surprise proposal to provide Soviet-built MiG-29 fighter jets to the U.S. to give to Ukraine, Harris met with the country’s top leaders in Warsaw, where part of her job was to smooth over the controversy.–end of aol info–
Corporate-owned-state-run MSM continues to insist “we are a 2-Party system” represented by capitalistic branches Democratic and Republican in a duopoly.  This is more than a lie; it is contrary to warnings from the Founders.  It is said Republican/Democratic duopoly that insist that not only must Americans accept capitalism over democracy, but that this erroneous notion of democracy is spread around the world.  Our interference manifests now as it has over decades in the war that fuels the engine of imperialism—–https://twitter.com/PeoplesParty_US/status/1501862854835814404     –The US biolabs in #Ukraine are funded but the Department of Defense. “Why” is the big question.—end of PEOPLES PARTY info—

Some people also convince the public that Free Enterprise is capitalism and that capitalism is democracy.  Go figure—
https://twitter.com/radderchadder/status/1501249769288572928        –Oh the sweet, sweet freedom of car loans, insurance, gasoline, repairs, collisions, and pollutionIt’s still amazing to me that we let ourselves be tricked into buying that THIS is what “freedom” looks like. #cardependency–end of twitter info–
https://greenwald.substack.com/p/victoria-nuland-ukraine-has-biological?r=b7o9i&s=r&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email   –Claims that Ukraine currently maintains dangerous biological weapons labs came from Russia as well as China. The Chinese Foreign Ministry this month claimed: “The US has 336 labs in 30 countries under its control, including 26 in Ukraine alone.” The Russian Foreign Ministry asserted that “Russia obtained documents proving that Ukrainian biological laboratories located near Russian borders worked on development of components of biological weapons.” Such assertions deserve the same level of skepticism as U.S. denials: namely, none of it should be believed to be true or false absent evidence. Yet U.S. fact-checkers dutifully and reflexively sided with the U.S. Government to declare such claims “disinformation” and to mock them as QAnon conspiracy theories.–end of greenwald info–

“The old ways” may be about a balance that is unknown in 2022, as we pander to patriarchy, when the scales have been weighted in favor of greed, privilege and exploitation that is metaphorically quite male—–https://twitter.com/Selena_Fox/status/1501931507782340613         –Honoring ancient ones & ancient ways at–end of twitter info——–end of Selena Fox info–
For those who will find as naive references to feminine “old ways”, because “we can’t stop progress”, we may consider that this disturbing progress is an excuse for the ages-old masculine aggression, violence, and patriarchy that has unbalanced both of humanity and nature over millennia——-https://theintercept.com/2022/03/07/ukraine-russia-nato-kosovo-war-crimes/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=The%20Intercept%20Newsletter     –Many governments of the world have denounced Putin’s actions. But when it comes to the U.S. and its NATO allies, these condemnations demand greater scrutiny. While many statements from Western leaders may be accurate regarding the nature of Russia’s actions, the U.S. and other NATO nations are in a dubious position to take a moralistic stance in condemning Russia. That they do so with zero recognition of their own hypocrisy, provocative actions, and history of unbridled militarism — particularly in the case of the U.S. — is deeply problematic. From the beginning of this crisis, Putin has exploited the militarism and past bombing campaigns of the U.S. and NATO to frame his own warped justification for his murderous campaign in Ukraine. But the fact that Putin is trying to justify the unjustifiable does not mean that we must ignore the U.S. actions that fuel his narrative.–end of theintercept info–

Indoctrination has been accomplished that the gifts of The Creator, in whatever way you imagine It/He/She/Causeandeffect, is inferior to patriarchal authoritarian presumption.  
That humanity is out of balance seems indisputable.  That the perpetrators feels pride in their destruction of humanity and nature has historically been the mindset of imperialism and warriors who destroy simply because they can.  
As we listen to the Pentagon mumble about sending “enablers” to confront the chaos that some people see as having been promoted by “Western values”, perhaps we should talk about complicity.  The language perpetrated by patriarchal-think is disturbing.

After a 5.2% reduction in emissions during the first year of the pandemic, emissions increased by 6% to 36.3 billion metric tons in 2021.–end of treehugger info–
That the Pentagon which may symbolically be the masculine has sent what they have labeled as “enablers” to Europe to participate in the mayhem we are witnessing, seems to be a blatant display of machismo that taunts with the customary posture of terrorists, the feminine into silence and obeisance.
Aside from any atrocity from war, Climate Change which is the result of an unbalanced system is a national security risk; all of which are mishandled by a chauvinistic government intent on personal power and wealth accumulation regardless of all else.

A personal view is that feminism is pro-nature and anti-authoritarianism.  This would imply a feminism that is anti-hierarchy that includes both communism and capitalism—–https://mronline.org/2022/03/09/what-is-anti-capitalist-feminism/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=what-is-anti-capitalist-feminism&mc_cid=5e1b2361e0&mc_eid=2833cdb99b   —

LIBERAL FEMINISM, OR, HOW YOU TOO CAN OVERCOME SEXISM IF YOU PLAY BY THE RULES

Girl bosses. Leaning in. Climbing the corporate ladder.If you were a woman on the internet in the early 2000s, you pretty much couldn’t go a day without coming across one of these terms–hether it was the latest success story of a woman-led Fortune 500 company or the newest think piece detailing why the #girlboss model was the way of the future for women everywhere.At the core of all these stories was one simple premise: if you tried hard enough, you too could win at capitalism while still being a good feminist–because achieving power and climbing the ranks of the corporate ladder was essential to the fight for equality.Where this whole idea goes wrong is that it ignores the very nature of capitalism and how it necessitates winners and losers in order to function. A system like capitalism needs a majority of people at the bottom of the ladder so that the select few can rise to the top. Amoruso’s clothing empire doesn’t exist without relying on exploitative labour and Sandberg’s climb up the corporate ladder is only feasible if you can afford to pay other people to take care of aspects of your life like childcare.And that’s not even touching on the fact that this form of women’s empowerment only functions if you are as close as possible to the cis-het, white male ideal at its centre. For women of colour, trans women or gender-diverse people, making capitalism ‘work for you’ is a whole lot harder, if even possible at all.–end of mronline info–

White-washing into acceptance of patriarchy is the job of patriarchy.  
From Yasha for a “Russian view”—-https://yasha.substack.com/p/a-russian-antiwar-view-on-things?token=eyJ1c2VyX2lkIjoxMDE3MzU2LCJwb3N0X2lkIjo1MDAyODA3NywiXyI6IkM5Q2hYIiwiaWF0IjoxNjQ2OTMxNDY1LCJleHAiOjE2NDY5MzUwNjUsImlzcyI6InB1Yi0zOTMwIiwic3ViIjoicG9zdC1yZWFjdGlvbiJ9.shd9jPYNSu3KBkFzmRZ-fpLMk9mpqOcoEy-QytUKZHA&s=r           –Sure, America’s rabid foreign policy establishment is a big factor here. That goes without saying. But I don’t see a lot of people even considering this Russian view on the war. I guess because to even consider it, you’d actually have to be interested in Russian perspectives and be willing to reconsider positions that challenge your simplistic, America-centric views. Evgenia is angry these days about this sort of thing. As she says, “the self-proclaimed anti-imperialists in America are acting very disdainfully and very colonial themselves. They don’t actually want to regard the native Russian point of view at all. For journalists who supposedly sympathize with the plight of victimized people, they seem very short-sighted and tone death in regard to the Russian point of view.”–end of yasha info–
Here’s an “American view”—-*The hierarchical-Establishment label on Americans of exceptionalism is too easily accepted by the rest of the world*Americans are struggling for survival perhaps to an extent unrealized in the EU*America does not have free and fair elections*America has politicians pandering to big-money interests (oligarchs)*American laws reflect this corruption of money in politics*The majority of Americans understand the need for a 1-payer-comprehensive public health care policy that would be less costly and more equitable, but instead we have an industry-enriching sick-care system*Political Parties supporting capitalism in the USA mirror the Soviet-era 1-Party communist system*The wealth and treasure of the USA seems earmarked for The Military-Industrial Complex to “spread democracy around the globe” when we don’t have democracy in the USA*Everyone is aware it is better to be rich and guilty than poor and innocent in the US judicial system*The USA has the highest incarceration rate in the world
So, no, Americans needn’t sit back and shut up.  It is time Americans spoke up for the attention requisite to citizens of our nation. That’s what democracy means.

That “we are a 2-Party system” is a fabrication of the Republican/Democratic duopoly and spread by MSM.  In FACT the majority of voters aren’t either registered Democratic or Republican.  The censorship about this info must be envied by bureaucrats of the Former USSR and their simplistic style of 1-Party elections.  

Regardless of which character sits in the Oval Office, We The People have work to do to maintain principles of our democratic (small d) Constitutional republic.  Several items to challenge—*We need the integrity of ranked-choice voting so voters won’t feel compelled to “hold your nose and vote”*Censored debates must be stopped.  The Democratic/Republican duopoly pretends to legitimate debates in what is nothing other than another campaign show.  Independent debates run by uninterested sponsors such as The League of Women Voters, must be restored.  (Access www.debates.org to understand the extent of duopoly control).  The so-called Debate Commission is a corporation to promote the Democratic corporation and Republican corporation, not to inform We The People*Challenge and stop gerrymandering that is a trick especially of the Republican branch of the duopoly.*Stop voter suppression by political Parties, and especially confront and stop Party suppression, which is the over-arching approach to voter suppression.  Party suppression seems to have been the responsibility of the Democratic corporation*Promote by law ranked-choice voting, so we won’t be told again, by D&R duopoly, to “hold your nose and vote”
If these issues are handled, our next elections can be honorable.

WITHDRAWS SUPPORT FROM FINAL PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE–end of lwv info–Murray Bookchin, who founded social ecology, a theory that strongly influenced early Green Socialist thought, strongly advocated the discussion and study group as the first step of any revolutionary movement. A group of individuals meets to expand their knowledge of radical thought and form a radical intellectual community; through the give and take of discussion, can eventually form ideas for next steps in organizing and political activity. According to Bookchin, study groups help create solidarity and a shared language — with a shared coherent vision — for building a mass, organizing, political movement!
Along with Climate Change, many people oppose the imperialism of the USA under control of the Republican/Democratic duopoly.  Use of the wealth of our nation should be to enhance quality of life for We The People rather than for imperialism.  Some people vote accordingly.I———————–That “we are a 2-Party system” is a fabrication of the Republican/Democratic duopoly and spread by MSM.  In FACT the majority of voters aren’t either registered Democratic or Republican.  The censorship about this info must be envied by bureaucrats of the Former USSR and their simplistic style of 1-Party elections.
