There was a time

makes some

that the horizons

All of them

Were bright and wide

Animals, stones and plants

Were one with us all

there was no cursing

Just pleasure to be alive

There was a time

makes some

that it was simple to be happy

What was worth being

The ether was an accessory

where a blue sky

mattered so much

Who stopped to look

There was a time

makes some

Where the day went slow

It was tasted, felt

Not swallowed without water

Like there’s no tomorrow …

that was before

First of all

Before the excessive ambition

Of the abandonment of Mother Earth

From spiritual blindness …

Now we need to go back to the beginning

We walk to the end

How are we going to deal with this?

The answer is within us

It’s in our essence

Who came from the whole

And to All it will return 宮 を を を

Ron DeSantis Wants to “Start Slitting Throats on Day One” – Mother Jones

“We’re going to have all of these deep state people, you know, we are going to start slitting throats on day one,” DeSantis said during a three-day trip to the Granite State. The event comes as the DeSantis campaign attempts a high-profile reset amid disappointing poll numbers and a major staff reduction.

The promise to the slit throats of people who essentially don’t exist—that is, unless you’re a conspiracy-addled Republican—aligns with the strategy the DeSantis campaign recently outlined in a confidential memo, which reportedly includes more attacks on the “deep state,” to convince donors that the Florida governor can still win this game. Now will his latest comments do the trick? Or is this simply more evidence of the governor’s infamous lack of social skills?

Whatever the case, it’s safe to say that these remarks fall in line with DeSantis’ authoritarian approach to governing, using the state to punish his perceived enemies, from Disney to whatever new item he’s declared as “woke.” As Harvard professor Steven Levitsky told my colleague Pema Levy, “That’s authoritarianism at its core. That’s what authoritarians do.”
