PERSONALITY TAKES TIME


Is the personality of the young nation of the USA still under progress?

A stereotype of juveniles suggests a characteristic of anti-social behavior that displays as being cool.  This is a part of growing up.  Marketers have glorified this period of human life into popularity even for people with sufficient years to have developed actual personalities.  The reason seems to be selling opportunity.  The result may be that some people may accord their life consistent with suggestion from marketers rather than according to quality of life, reality, or best practice.  This is harmful to said people, in the long run, while being obnoxious.

An example drawn from recent news is a propensity to build a home if not a community, on the edge of a body of water in a hurricane alley, for example…..

To consider quality of life over quantity of goods may be a path to economic well being.  Few would argue that economic well being itself enhances quality of life.https://www.treehugger.com/retired-couple-builds-zero-waste-tiny-home-6744078?hid=4246be665c7c525806e26d15079d974213d256e7&did=850479-20221004&utm_campaign=treehugger-daily_newsletter&utm_source=treehugger&utm_medium=email&utm_content=100422&cid=850479&mid=98644160441     —
With people becoming more aware of how their lifestyles can impact their environment, we’ve seen a slow but sure shift of people adopting the idea of living a fuller life, with less stuff. That might mean reining in impulsive consumerist habitsflying lesseating and buying local, or living in a smaller home. The notion of a simpler lifestyle is catching on and not only with the younger generation: It is also making sense with a growing number of boomer retirees who want to leave a healthier planet behind for their children and grandchildren.

Marketing seems to be a reason for lifestyle choices that are unlivable or dangerous.  Pyramid-Scheme economy inculcation elevates characteristics such as competition and aggression over concern for fairness and restraint.  In the end this is seldom healthy for the perpetrator.  If it sounds like one encourages ability to imagine a better vision, it’s because that is the intention.  Consider simple intelligence in building a community, as discussed in the link following.

But there’s another story out of Florida — a good news story — that’s not getting anything close to the coverage it deserves.

Just 12 miles northeast of Fort Meyers — a community devastated by the hurricane with total loss of power, water, and massive loss of life — another community not only came through the hurricane just fine but never even lost power.

It wasn’t to save the world that they built an all-electric, all-solar community: it was to avoid exactly what happened to the surrounding area; electric and water outages and the collapse of infrastructure that typically accompanies a hurricane.–end of portside info–

One is interested in the highlighted portion of the above portside info that seems to imply a type of nobility that the community wasn’t so constructed to “save the world”.  So what’s wrong with saving the world, and how weird is a culture that feels compelled to take on said aura of environmental chauvinism that rejects “saving he world”?

Again, feels like hubris and juvenile grasping for something to fill the void.

Without mentioning a meritocracy, Russell Brand seems to speak to this special type of oligarchy functioning in the USA.

One may research The Meritorious Manumissions Act of 1710, if one wishes.  This may be uniquely American as written into law.

****As one who would be perfectly contented to retain the Senate if they adhered to Oaths of Office more than to Citizens United campaign donations, one is interested in a topic raised as to the reason we maintain the US Senate—-


 This is a reminder of how much we don’t know.  This brings one around to Howie Hawkins, who continues to impress with original thought.  We also could acknowledge Hawkins often speaks to censored information.
One such topic about which one would never have even considered, is whether the USA needs The Senate.  Apparently The Senate is little other than expensive window dressing, promoting hierarchical interests, and too often placed in positions of power by big-money via Citizens United.  But the public gets to fund this curiosity of pompous supremacy.  Who knew?
The Democratic Branch of the Republican/Democratic Duopoly are especially functional in voter suppression—–https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNbdkuU1edw          —#GreenSocialist Notes #76
Howie Hawkins brings up the concept of whether the USA needs the Senate.  Apparently according to some people, the Senate isn’t necessary.  This brings up the blockage from the Senate of many bills that would benefit We The People.  Combined with Citizens United that promotes big-money interest choice of Senators, in which laws are passed that benefit big-money interest rather than We The People, and that We The People support economically, the members of the Senate, this seems a good topic for discussion.
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.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQ7kn2-GEmM       —

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!
