The following news stories encourage the opinion that greed may be at the bottom of many of the troubles of society, including poverty and war.  These are topics that should be aired openly and discussed from the view of different people.  As one with an overriding concern for the environment and opposition to Climate Change, the health of people and nature are the subject.

The concept that local community integrity takes a second place behind industrial profiteering seems more nearly fascist than of a democratic (small d) Constitutional republic. — https://twitter.com/washingtonpost/status/1507298286419468288 –An Appalachian town was told a bitcoin mine would bring an economic boom. It got noise pollution and an eyesore.–end of twitter info–

The original people of Seneca Lake also deserve respect. https://sni.org/ –The modern day Seneca Nation is a true democracy whose constitution was established in 1848. The Nation’s constitution provides for a multi-branch system of government that–end of sni info–
A progress defined in terms of exploitation, greed, and privilege seems to grow in our capitalistic-hierarchical Establishment modern world. Fear of acknowledgement of our history as being irrelevant seems to assist in fashioning a system of fascism while denigrating notions of democracy that seem described for our Constitutional republic.
For example, The PBS News Hour broadcast at 7:00PM each evening, on 5/6/2022, shared the history of abortions in the USA. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/exploring-the-complicated-history-of-abortion-in-the-united-states –In the leaked Supreme Court draft opinion striking down Roe v. Wade, Justice Samuel Alito writes that the nation has had an “unbroken tradition” of criminalizing abortion. But as John Yang reports, the history is much more complicated.–end of pbs news hour info– Aside from the startling FACT that Pilgrim women had been burned at the stake as witches, and not for perpetrating abortion but just for being a pain, abortion was routine and was the purview of individuals. Also shared was the apparent FACT that Indigenous woman had autonomy over their own bodies. Eventually a medical association consisting of white men decided they alone could deal with this. This sounds interestingly familiar, don’t you think?

In other words, history is written by the most aggressive, violent, and exploiting people among us. This isn’t democracy.
As patriarchy imagines and implements the idea of a so-called shining city on the hill, which in their view seems founded upon capitalistic hierarchical excellence, a parallel path runs in reality. The 2 roads seem destined to never meet. As one who doesn’t understand the reason governance can’t attempt Utopia that includes everyone, one also watches Establishment build out a Utopia that includes hierarchy at the expense of others. Women have always played a role in this hierarchy; and to criminalize choice quite obviously but secretively removes competition and adds to the resource pool. Until this is no longer the FACT, discussion is difficult.
We could begin by discussing that choice wasn’t a matter for public discussion until an all-white-male professional association got involved (listen again to the PBS News Hour report), and personally opining probably with industrialization of the social order.https://portside.org/2022-05-06/growing-criminalization-pregnancy –The impending decision in Dobbs is the end point of a decades-long campaign by anti-abortion groups to criminalize abortion by seeding the idea of “fetal personhood,” a concept that, by detaching the fetus’s fate from that of the person carrying it, manages to redefine the pregnant person as a potential criminal.–end of portside info–
Recent political campaigns were poster events describing the following reality. At the same time that words about equality were expressed, policies that are implemented maintain the status quo. We The People are crying out for a 1-payer comprehensive public health care policy but we have industrial-profiteering disease care. We The People demand voter rights but said rights are made nearly impossible for some people. A majority of We The People understand the birth right of bodily autonomy but Establishment sees the benefit to hierarchy to insinuate control. https://twitter.com/asosin/status/1522690257216589827 –“..Advantaged groups frequently support the concept of equality and yet use their advantaged position to implement policies that perpetuate inequality … We argue that it is because advantaged group members misperceive that equality necessarily comes at a cost to their group.”–end of twitter info—

Some people who have witnessed actions of the USA for decades, if not half a century, understands the concerns of some leaders of foreign nations — https://mronline.org/2022/05/06/solomon-islands-pm-warns-of-invasion-by-australia-and-u-s/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=solomon-islands-pm-warns-of-invasion-by-australia-and-u-s –Without naming the U.S. or Australia, Sogavare said: “We deplore the continual demonstration of lack of trust by the concerned parties, and tacit warning of military intervention in Solomon Islands if their national interest is undermined in Solomon Islands. In other words, we are threatened with invasion.”–end of mronline info–It’s not a good look that foreign nations feel threatened with invasion. Yet this seems to be the case. Such fears can be labeled as conspiracy theories, but the fear seems real. On what is that fear based?
The US Constitution doesn’t seem to sanction elections run by political Parties, and to permit control of political debates by political Parties seems equally corrupt.

Ross Perot in 1992 on NAFTA and the “Giant Sucking Sound”

Centralization is the lifeblood of the R&D duopoly.  It’s the way to enforce capitalism onto workers in 2022.
———————–We can do better———-

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!
