We often have heard hierarchical Establishment proponents warn We The People that we shouldn’t describe our system as a democracy.  Perhaps those using this forbidden word do so in place of reading out the entirety of the First Amendment that seems to suggest freedom and inclusion in reference to our governance.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Does anyone remember Helen Thomas?  If not, this could be significant.

The importance of calling out ethics breaches was once typical but in 2021 the partisanship between Democratic and Republican strategists seem so ubiquitous as to go unnoticed in too many cases.  Censorship of views other than from the Republican/Democratic duopoly that promotes capitalism has advanced to the 2 branches attempting total control that seems contrary to principles of our democratic (small d) Constitutional republic.  Actions that are democratic (small d) seem suggested in the First Amendment.  Nothing in the US Constitution seems to promote capitalism.  Democratic Psaki may have violated guidelines as have so many Republican strategists.  https://www.aol.com/news/biden-aide-psaki-may-violated-213617320-011300192.html      —- McAuliffe, who served as Virginia governor from 2014 to 2018, is up against Republican Glenn Youngkin in the Nov. 2 election. Polls show it as a close contest.   The Hatch Act of 1939 limits the political campaigning activities of federal employees, except the president and vice president.

Hierarchy prefers to suggest that democratic (small d) action isn’t insinuated in the US Constitution.  This seems incorrect considering the First Amendment.  Either way, considering protection of human and environmental rights, challenge to violations are supremely human and….to borrow a phrase…….endowed by our Creator.Received from popularresistance —  https://mailchi.mp/popularresistance/e3u3x4gkzu?e=1b0a9c0541                —

As one who is privileged to live on the historical land of the Haundenosaunee in NYS, and recalling that our US Constitution is thought to have been inspired from their governance, a return to principles that have yet to be attained, including a More Prefect Union, has a best chance of success by remembering the society of these people.
The Haudenosaunee probably didn’t call it democracy, but the influence on our Constitutional republic was the same.

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.  

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.
