It ain't over yet. And right now the southerners have the house, senate, presidency and scotus. Never before in modern times has this happened w a sexual predatory psychopath as a president.

I know. But freedom can still win. It will take very creative thinking to do so ("asymmetrical warfare" some might call it). But it can happen! Buckminster Fuller once said "To change something don't fight the existing system. To create real change, design a new system that makes the existing system obsolete." This IMHO is what it's gonna take to defeat ChristoFascism / White Supremacy.
I agree. The Democrats talk a good talk, but Nancy Pelosi (for example) blocked AOC from making the contributions sheтАЩs capable of making. That resistance to new people with new ideas is classic blocking of real progress. And real, transformational progress is what we need.
Disruption of the status quo can be constructive or destructive. It all depends on the value system of the people designing the disruption. Technology is value-feee. Facebook could have given us Heaven on Earth. But Zuckerberg wasnтАЩt willing to demand users agree to adhere to constructive progressive values of the kind embodied by Dr M L King, Jr
Some folks, Steve, seem to want a Wreck-It-Ralph to, as Bannon urged, тАЬburn it all downтАЭ. Yay chaos & destruction!!! Then the complaints come thundering about тАЬstuff not workingтАЭ. Go figure ЁЯджЁЯП╗тАНтЩАя╕П
Yes, Barbara, some just want to throw what we have out the window. But they have not been taught to think like engineers / designers think. They donтАЩt know you must first design a better system you want to implement тАж what you want to replace the existing system with. ItтАЩs a two-step process. But sadly way too many people only think about Step One.

Excellent point. As for the Dems, we need a complete overhaul of leadership. Dems are rudderless now. Need new leaders and new philosophy.

New ideas have been trounced
Steve, isn't it what maga did? They were very asymmetrical and changed the system. That's why we are still shocked?

Social Media sure came down on the side of - money. Values be damned
seems like most of 'merikkka came down on the side of money...
Most just think they did, the rich get richer, the rest just pay the piper
That is what repubs plan to doтАж
This is what Trump has done.
Yes, but Trump is a destroyer. IтАЩm talking about being a builder тАж of a positive future (see Buckminster Fuller for an example)

DonтАЩt forget the several others in his proposed cabinet of mismatched toys.
