1/ This world is going to right itself because it always does. Nature itself bends toward healing. The part that human beings play is in determining how long it will take and how much suffering must come first. Even now, we’re being asked to decide what kind of future we choose.

Since the founding of our country the persecution of black people has been a national character defect. But we’ve pushed it back before & we’ll will push it back again. The vast majority of Americans are horrified by it and will rise to the challenge of casting it from our midst

The American ideal is that nobody gets to “take over,” and that everyone has equal opportunity. Obviously we’ve never fully actualized that ideal but it’s the purpose of every generation to try to get there. Sometimes, like now, it’s 2 steps backwards. But we have to keep trying.

You meant fiction. Not ideal. Myth. Canard. Fairytale. Lie. Suggesting we keep trying to elect people who want us dead isn't helping. It certainly won't help you sell books.

Bakunin said that political planning based on the ideal led to disaster and that we could only reach our ideal based on acceptance of reality. The reality of America is that it is an oligarchy ruled by corporate landlords and robber barons.
