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.

Love has exponentially much greater power than fear, and so does Universal Wisdom...which is the basis of our laws and our Constitutional form of Government.

Love, and I suspect, self-understanding. When we embrace, recognize and resolve our deepest fears and emotional pains we will grow compassion - we will see the same in others who suffer like us and our heart will know and care for them. Real lasting change surely begins with us.

Oh, there’s a war? 😉 Why above? We need to go THROUGH the battlefield.

Compassion is born from perspectives, that are in turn born from the developmental capacity to embody them... in the place of the 'other'. Without an understanding of 'identity' itself, it's useless to point to the self-evident truth of 'love'. LEADERSHIP is a necessity, now...

Would you rather live under communism? Because that’s what we are headed for. This leftist agenda and this Trump Derangement syndrome is the real disease.

And by the way we are in the middle of information warfare and you are contributing to it. The only reason Barack Obama got elected is because he did not speak like a radical leftist. And he lied about not being associated with Bill Ayers.
