The revolution we need has already begun; it’s in its infancy but it’s growing. It’s a revolution of consciousness: that the way it is is not the way it has to be. And a revolution of heart: that love should guide politics and economics as well as every other aspect of life.

Even the Q boards are waking up to this, seeing republican and democrats as the enemy. I'm just so worried about the antisemitism that runs rampant there radicalizing them to the wrong end. They are so close and could be a large force.

Iono, my observation is that we're groomed to love our servitude.

Without putting it into practice though, it still stands antithesis to the cold clasp of neoliberalism and the rise of fascism. I’d like to believe those ideals can become true, but we’re a far cry from achieving it in a concrete manner.

Marianne, love is exactly what drives those of us who see the necessity of a *physical* revolution. We love not just our own children, but those of others, and those being murdered and subjugated by the most violent and oppressive empire in human history across the globe.

Uhh.... Let's say the Russian Federation invades Estonia. How would "love" help to redress that problem?

That's what we thought in the sixties. And here we are, half-a-century later. The evidence for conscious evolution doesn't support the conclusion. We may need to temper optimism with something harder.

It seems as though this is a physical as well as mental development. The fact that so many people still don’t embrace it appears almost pathological. Hopefully commitment, dedication, education, and action will bring all of them along.

I hope you're right
