Dignity too often has been lost in the rush toward a progress defined in terms of privilege, greed, and exploitation.

Hierarchical Establishment capitalists seem to see the environment as a natural resource to be exploited for profit while people recognize the environment as home.  That people have been relegated to the status of a human resource seems to excuse predatory and violent behavior toward both humanity and nature for profit.  One notices deflections such as the so-called pro-life march on this day, that is a smoke screen to the ongoing violence against nature and people that kill both.

Some people see the hierarchical Establishment isolation of humanity and nature into spheres of resource-for-profit as extending into self-imposed indoctrination assisted by subtle physical changes in our environment that ensures the integrity of perception is diminished that may result in sad numbing of senses.  —  https://www.treehugger.com/stars-disappearing-from-sight-astonishing-rate-7096817?hid=4246be665c7c525806e26d15079d974213d256e7&did=8048169-20230120&utm_source=treehugger&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=treehugger-daily_newsletter&utm_content=012023&lctg=4246be665c7c525806e26d15079d974213d256e7    –The authors used the observations to estimate how skyglow has changed over the years. They found that the loss of visible stars was higher than expected and that sky brightness has increased 9.6% per year over the past decade. Satellite measurements, which is how sky brightness has been measured thus far, only suggested a 2% per year global increase in brightness.

Ability for local communities to feed themselves is the essence of liberty and freedom, not to mention dignity.

Locally shared seeds are crucial for many rural communities—“genetic keys to biodiversity and climate change resilience,” as researcher Afsar Jafri states, as well as “records of cultural knowledge” and “the ultimate symbol of food security.” However, farmers’ ability to continue sharing and planting these seeds is under constant threat by multinational corporations and the states that back them.

In 2015, the six largest agribusiness corporations—BASF, Bayer AG, Dow, DuPont, Monsanto, and Syngenta—controlled 63 percent of the commercial seed market. In 2018, Bayer acquired Monsanto for $66 billion. The resulting corporate entity controls nearly 60 percent of the world’s proprietary seed supply.–end of mronline info–

An echo of the capitalistic modern-day industrialization of seed can be imagined in the communist USSR that gave land to peasants but then demanded the agricultural production to be handed over to the state for distributions to industrialized regions, as has been found in https://www.amazon.com/Gates-Europe-History-Ukraine/dp/0465094864#:~:text=Situated%20between%20Central%20Europe%2C%20Russia,Reich%20and%20the%20Soviet%20Union.         —

Situated between Central Europe, Russia, and the Middle East, Ukraine was shaped by the empires that used it as a strategic gateway between East and West—from the Roman and Ottoman empires to the Third Reich and the Soviet Union. For centuries, Ukraine has been a meeting place of various cultures.

Censorship of all things Russia seem to be more about short-circuiting a comparison between communism and capitalism that reveals similar dictatorial process and less about shielding the innocent minds of Americans from communistic ideology.

The so-called Supreme Court leak with an internal investigation that has given to answers, but that was reported by Politco, shines a light on the Assange saga and reasons to imprison journalists.  From Bill Huston—-         https://www.facebook.com/billhuston/posts/pfbid032PFA3mmEKZ2ny952pC1cMADoYBTP8KGGTTaZtfq525KZehrSCRe4Lqpr5wkKvuENl        —

Latest on Julian Assange. Tribunal today in UK, rumors in Australia that he will be released soon.

–end of facebook post–

Is the reason for persecution of Assange about revelation of US activities?  Secret documents surely proliferate to the point where politicians are ostensibly walking around with secret documents stuck to their shoes.  What’s up with the secrecy?

When it’s not censored it may be garbled.

****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       —

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!
