The guest of Russell Brand seems to make the connection between the sacred which must be eternal, and attempts by political ideology that attempts to own the same.

When politics attempt occupation of ideas, the notion of attempt to become sacred seems as logical as do some religious groups.  In other words, when that which can be called eternal such as people, nature, and The Creator as each person imagines as It, He, Her or Cause and Effect are presented as the possession of an institution, this can be considered as the use of The Sacred for political promotion.
An anomaly noticed is prosecution of lower-level players rather than perpetrators, bosses, and leaders.  Combining these components the notion of tyranny can be seen.
Not that she does or does not deserve this, but the conviction by the American justice system rests on the shoulders of one woman  –https://www.nationofchange.org/2021/12/30/doj-releases-hypocritical-statement-on-ghislaine-maxwell-verdict/  -Before Epstein’s death in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in August 2019, Epstein reportedly bragged to many people that was advising a whole assortment of foreign leaders who included Vladimir Putin, Mohammed bin Zayed, Mohammed Bin Salman, various African dictators, Israel, and the British, along with the American government.–end of nationofchange info–
This feels like the Democratic Presidential Primary campaign strategy all over again.
Enabling is a function of some people on the periphery of hierarchy.  Enablers seem to receive the brunt of Establishment prosecution.         ————https://www.newsweek.com/every-celebrity-named-jeffrey-epstein-files-1521985

C-Span expands relevance byway of an involved public that express views that seem less so-called partisan and more connected to topics relating to life in the USA.

Join us with your calls and comments on social media as we review the latest news headlines out of Washington.–c-span info–9:07AM–caller–paraphrase on the topic of the most important story of 2021–The collaboration between talking heads and media that fails to include funding of such “experts” (“experts” is my word)
One believes behind the entirety of chaos of life in the USA is the money that has been both accepted as normal and made legal, but that is in FACT and in a saner era, would be recognized as corruption.
Challenge to local-community autonomy by hierarchical Establishment is the story of pursuit of profits by commercial interests—https://popularresistance.org/a-dream-of-a-fossil-fuel-free-neighborhood-meets-the-constraints-of-the-building-industry/     —But Money And The Status Quo Of The Construction Business Intervened.–end of popularresistance info–

FYI until January 9 one can see a presentation of Dickens’ Christmas Carol from a less-than-capitalistic perspective—-https://www.sfmt.org/a-red-carol     —The mission of the San Francisco Mime Troupe is to create and produce theater that presents a working-class analysis of the events that shape our society, that exposes social and economic injustice, that demands revolutionary change on behalf of working people, and to present this analysis before the broadest possible audience with artistry and humor.The collective of the San Francisco Mime Troupe exists not only to create this activist art but also to embody our ideals of combating the fragmentation of the working class: we are a democratically run, multi-ethnic, multi-generational, multi-cultural, gender-balanced theater of social justice that by its very existence sustains a vision of community governance of, by, and for the people.–end of sfrnt info–
This should be interesting.
The successful advertising campaign of capitalistic hierarchical Establishment is that capitalism, unlike communism, is good for you.  FACTually  both systems are hierarchical and exploit that which they wish for personal promotion.  This campaign has given us the most ludicrous presumption.  For example during the 2020 Presidential Primary the Democratic branch of the R&D duopoly used the memory of MLK, Jr. as a standard of their position, even to the extent of denigrating democratic-socialist Bernie Sanders, whose ideology seems in line with that of MLK, Jr..  In contrast the Democratic/Republican duopoly uphold principles of capitalism and hierarchical authority..   –https://portside.org/2021-12-30/martin-luther-king-was-radical-not-moderate         —
But in his day, King was considered a dangerous troublemaker. Both Presidents John Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson worried that King was being influenced by Communists. King was harassed by the FBI and vilified in the media. The establishment’s campaign to denigrate King worked. In August 1966 – as King was bringing his civil rights campaign to Northern cities to address poverty, slums, housing segregation and bank lending discrimination – the Gallup Poll found that 63% of Americans had an unfavorable opinion of King, compared with 33% who viewed him favorably. –end of portside info–

A common-core style of education in the USA that is occupied by capitalists has worked its magic in indoctrinating American students into swallowing the misinformation.  And so we have intellectually-impotent youngsters who are attempting to promote voter rights by going hat-in-hand to capitalists to beg for said rights that are intrinsic to the rights of American citizens according to principles in our US Constitution.  Hierarchy, boys and girls, are those who wish to control your right to vote for their own interests.
We currently have an Executive Cabinet filled with politicians who so denigrated Bernie Sanders in order to gain power.  The results are predictable to an observant person.
The Republican branch of the D&R duopoly is no more inspiring—-https://portside.org/2021-12-30/least-13-republicans-who-participated-jan-6-attack-are-running-office    —Newsweekhas compiled a list of GOP candidates who disclosed their participation in the day’s events through social media posts or comments to news outlets. Two of the candidates face legal charges in relation to the event.–end of portside info–

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.
