There is no longer any denying the forest from the trees , on so many avenues/paths. The American Dream is done , few see the puzzle coming together/connections weak/dancing all around the corpse. John Stewart’s cry comes closest to nailing it. The circus of traitors insidiously beat the last vestige rhetorically. Cannon is the canary.

Metaphors?
A change of unequalled challenge is upon the World. There are no winners, only survivors on the last boat.
We are truly all in this together, Joyce, the visionary…. correctly.
Eloquent writing, laid out meticulously, shouted the warning well in some circles, lies and ridicule in others, designed from histories downfalls, the playbook of the coal mine or the cold mind counted and calculated .
I think the overturning of Roe was also a canary (can we have 2?). I think it pointed us right back to the Declaration which says all men are created equal. Put us women right back in our place to be only protected as property, not as human beings. We would be better off arguing our property rights were violated with the overturning of Roe because that’s how we were regarded when the Declaration was penned…as property.
And property is that over which you have control. You get to eat YOUR sandwich. You get to drive YOUR car. The idea that people can be property is tyrannical. The concept of universal equality means that no person can be property. We have rights and responsibilities, but are subject to no autocratic whim. The tension between those who would be masters and those they would regard as slaves is as old as humanity.
It also seems to me that there is strong tie-in to notions of supremacy, racial, religious, gender, financial, etc. that posits narcissistic privilege over others. That's the tragic flaw that could bring down our species. No? Noem felt justified in killing an adolescent dog that failed to acknowledge her presumed superiority. For centuries, those impulses have left a wake of blood.
Realty always has the last word, and it's not like we have had no opportunities to learn of where tyranny leads. Sufficient votes for sanity can stop the spread of madness.

Mom Nature may have the last laugh.

Well stated! As was the way there were lots of canaries, I’m sure the blue 💙 will be the popular vote by far…but that doesn’t mean a win anymore !
Lot of historical canaries going way back, including slaves owned by presidents.
No need for two, Mary Ellen. The first one choked to death on Dobbs.
