Covid and climate change are wake-up calls but are we waking up? We’re adults running the world as though we’re children. Spiritual maturity is needed now: a serious realization that if the next wake-up call comes in the form of a nuclear disaster there will be no more waking up

Ha! Having lived through that time, I don’t totally disagree with you. It’s not an accident that psychedelics are making a comeback. That, or the enlightenment experience that amounts to their equivalent.

Disease, drought, fires and flooding are taking us out now. This is it.

Yes ... we need to take action now ourselves ... otherwise ... a power in this universe will SHOCK us into taking action ... and if it does ... it won't be pretty!

For me covid was a wake up call of how ridiculous mainstream media is.

I agree. Many young people in the next generation understand this. Its up to those of us who weren't aware of Climate Change when we were younger to pass on the tools for enabling social change that we used. See: wagingnonviolence.org/2019/1…

Why doesn't American political culture understand the power of direct action campaigns?

It's time to recover what we once knew: Direct action campaigns are the engine that power movements past state power and right-wing violence.

Brunch liberals now set to go back to sleep. They set the alarm to wake them in time for the next election. We are already having trouble organizing "the base" around the tasks at hand. Per DNC plans, I'm sure.

We'd do well if we did act like children. Children are far less corrupted by anti-human memes, though they, too, aren't unexposed, and even 5 year olds can start to pay more attention to competing for points than to being creative and curious.

Start hammering your party about their aggressive xenophobia and chest-poking towards Russia. We need diplomacy there, not a new Cold War.
