Creeping Neo-Fascism

In Saner Thought

I remember the days when the country was warned about the ‘creeping socialism’ of the American Left….the ‘creeping’ was more like an anemic crawl……but now this country has a new ‘creeper’ it should be more worried about……that of ‘creeping Neo-fascism’…..

Do not get me wrong I do not like labeling those as ‘fascists’ just like I do not appreciate the label ‘socialist’….but the GOP seems to be heading in a direction we have seen before.

The way to fight this trend is to fight the neo-liberal trend….

Neoliberalism can be defined as a political approach that “seeks to transfer the control of economic factors from the public sector to the private sector” — and strives to “place limits on government spending, government regulation, and public ownership.” Neoliberalism can be described more candidly as vast, systemic, nonstop plunder.

The plunder is enmeshed in politics. In the real world, economic power is…

Federal judge says Florida ban on “sanctuary cities” racially motivated – Axios

A federal judge on Tuesday struck down parts of a Florida law aimed at banning local governments from establishing sanctuary city policies, arguing in part that the law is racially motivated and that it has the support of hate groups.

Why it matters: In a 110-page ruling issued Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Beth Bloom said the law — signed and championed by Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) — violates the Constitution’s Equal Protection Clause because it was adopted with discriminatory motives.

A donkey worked very hard for an old man for years. The donkey was getting old and was no longer as fast as his young days; but, he was still loyal and tried hard to be able to do the usual daily tasks so he wouldn’t be a burden for the old man.

One day, the donkey fell into a deep well in the old man’s farm.

fountain-2311804__340

The old man ran towards the sound of the donkey’s cry. When he got to the well, he realized getting the donkey out would be impossible.

He said to himself: “In any case, I’ve wanted to buy a young donkey since this one is already old. And I’ve long wanted to fill in this dried well and dig a new one. I will kill two birds with one stone. I’ll fill in the well and bury the…

Thoughtful Thursdays, Stayed on Freedom’s Call page 30, and mutual aid

Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better

It is crucial that we each help our society to become more fully inclusive for all of us today, and to come and work together, for all of us, right?  

I have a short story to add, after this page quote, about my persona experience using Time Banks…

I believe that attention to shared histories, as in DC, may provide part of an answer.  I started a note about that, a few years ago, in my book Stayed on Freedom’s Call:

” … Time Banks USA
“What is the function of a currency? Rewarding caring and sharing…

A medium of exchange reinforcing what we say we value.” -Dr. Edgar Cahn on Time Dollars

Lying in his hospital bed in 1980, Edgar Cahn realized something.  Each person needs something, and each person has something to contribute. Money is an impersonal and scarce medium of exchange which devalues those who cannot…

O Genocídio dos Povos Indígenas na América do Norte ANTES de acontecer na América do Sul AGORA!

Barbara Crane Navarro

«Eles querem que abandonemos outra parte de nossa terra tribal. Esta não é a primeira vez nem a última vez.

Eles reivindicam esta nossa mãe, a Terra, para seu próprio uso, e isolam seus vizinhos dela, e a degradam com seus prédios e seu lixo.

O branco sabe fazer tudo, mas não sabe distribuir … o amor aos bens é uma doença para eles.»

– Cacique Sitting Bull

«Empresas de mineração de ouro, florestais e agroindustriais decidiram arrasar nossas terras com máquinas enormes.

A floresta está sangrando, posso sentir isso em meu coração. Eles derramam mais veneno na terra do que ouro. Eles são como mortos-vivos, cobertos de lama dourada.

O que você fizer mudará o mundo inteiro e destruirá nossa casa – e irá destruir sua casa também.

Pedimos que pare o que…
