1/ What’s happening politically in America is the tip of an iceberg, the external reflection of a huge underlying struggle. It’s a contest between two competing visions of what America should be.

2/ Some of us find diversity appealing, a potential kaleidoscope of genius, an explosion of cultural brilliance the likes of which could only happen here. We’re excited by it and proud of it.

3/ But what to some of us seems beautiful and enriching, to others feels like cultural annihilation - an overwhelming assault on their identity against which they must defend.

4/ The fear that they will be left behind is now exploited, of course, by a master manipulator who understands their fear because he feels so much of it himself. Being destructive, he fears destruction because he subconsciously feels that he deserves it.

5/ Compassion is our only way out of this. Feel compassion for those who fear you, because love is to fear what light is to darkness. In the presence of one the other dissolves. Only love will win the war because it will take us above the battlefield.

What’s happening is there is one vision for America. The two parties play the same game. You are still playing Republican bad. Democrats good. Neither are good. They all sell out and you know this. Stop misleading the people you claim to want to help!

Failures of humanity worldwide are becoming crystal clear. This starts a global shift in human consciousness from self-centered goal seeking to intuitive understanding & action to help others & our planet. This will be as big as human thought emerging from animal instinct

Marianne, in my mom’s published oral history The Walking People, at 1 point many of the people decided they would no longer move to accommodate their neighbors-they fought. The keepers of the peaceful way did move; later we found them all deceased in the swamp nobody wanted. 😶

I keep coming back to this core dilemma: the problem is there are always, it seems, those who lust for power over others. Most of us have some of this in us, but it’s not our dominant self. Those who do, wreck it for everyone. Much is spent trying to reign this in. Verges on evil
