The level of chaos happening in the world - including in this country - is not normal. Stress points long pushed to the limit have given way. We are experiencing the eruption of dysfunctional energies now overwhelming levies that for decades have kept them at bay. 1/6

It’s no longer a matter of warning that something is going to blow; things are blowing now. And they are going to land in one way direction or the other. They will either land in the direction of greater democracy, justice and love - or they will fall in the direction of chaos, authoritarianism and violence. 2/6

This is not a moment to simply wait and see; it is a moment to grab hold of history. It is a moment to realize we can and must change. We will either wisely and proactively move in the direction of much greater hope for far more people, or we will be forced to move in whatever direction that forces beyond our control are leading to. 3/6

Nothing could be more unwise, or tragic, than in 2024 to meet the Christo nationalist fascist energy now supporting Donald Trump with the stale and worn out energy of establishment neoliberal politics. No amount of money the Democrats can raise will be enough to override Trump’s mad dash toward fascism, if we don’t offer people a far more generous agenda for ways to improve their lives. 4/6

To win in 2024, we must meet big lies with big truth - but not the mealy mouthed truth of establishment politics. We must speak the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth regarding where we are and how we got here. We must meet the post political energy of Donald Trump with a post political energy of our own. 5/6

Joe Biden is not the one who can do that, and we must snap out of whatever delusional mindset would make us think he is. We must meet radical fear with radical love. The only way to defeat the undemocratic assaults on our democracy is to make sure our democracy delivers so much, with such vibrancy and justice, that the people themselves will choose it. Then and only then will the enemies of democracy be pushed back in our time as they have been pushed back in times before. This is our moment and we need to seize it. #marianne2024 6/6

***Newsflash*** Democrats are enablers/the other side of the coin/same bird other wing. Fascists come in all shapes and sizes, stop acting like the Dems can't produce a fascist that appeases the Christian-right

This reminds me of the open letter you wrote to Hillary in the lead up to 2016. She didn't heed your advice and things transpired as you'd predicted.

Well said. Unfortunately those who hold the levers of power, & the millions who still benefit from the fumes of their shortsighted policies, fear balancing the books more than Trump. We far outnumber them but they’re the ones who vote. Some sort of collapse seems inevitable 🤷🏻

Newsom should run, but Biden would need to announce he’s not running. That can only happen if Trump is losing. The soonest that could happen is Feb 24, after the SC primary, if Haley is away ahead of Trump.

I think we need to see some structural changes in the world may be led by USA and that one basic change is to do away with the concept of gdp to gauge the progress made gdp should be replaced with a far more sane concept of gross domestic health and happiness. Focus matters. 1/2

Quit acting like you care about democracy. Democrats are always fighting against democracy. You want a republic ruled by elites. You don't trust the will of the people. The status quo gives you comfort. You want to do just enough to prevent a revolution.

Christo nationalist fascist energy...radical love...meet undemocratic attempts with SUCH justice that they will LIKE it. Such powerful words. I can just feel our kids' genders changing spontaneously as they lovingly chuck Molotovs at, well, us.
