1/ False positivism is when you pretend things aren’t really so bad when in fact they are. The most positive thing is always to tell the truth, and sometimes that means shedding light on something that’s negative.

2/ There’s a common Holocaust tale about people who would say to their neighbors, “Have you seen Mr. and Mrs. Schwartz and their children recently? No one seems to know where they are!” And the response would be, “Oh let’s not discuss unpleasant things! Let’s just be positive!”

3/ So the moral of the story is “Let’s be positive.” Every effort to register anyone to vote, to motivate anyone to vote & to counter to nefarious voter suppression efforts now being planned around the country, is the positive action of someone who knows negative when they see it

I think head-in-sand positivity is actually cowardice masquerading as optimism. It takes courage to let yourself see, accept, and then tell others the truth. Without that everything falls apart because nothing can be trusted, and trust is the foundation for all human interactions

The system is beyond repair. #NormalizeIndependence
I'm starting a platform called The Free Market of Independents Party. It will have no right or left affiliation. It's purpose will be to rival the duopoly and magnify/legitimise the voice of those who run on the policy of changing the way elections are run.
