Other Ways To Peacefully Resist and Make Our Voices Heard

Note, I meant to publish the full conversation and I published the 3 minute clip that goes only until we had technical issues. Sigh. Here’s the full conversation:your weirdo friend has been on my radar for a long time, and I finally got the opportunity to sit down and talk to them. The previous day I’d been out on a ski and I listened to a long recording where they deconstructed much of American thinking. In this country, everybody is indoctrinated to believe he, she, or they is a cowboy who can fend off the forces of evil. In truth, the forces of evil will wash over us like a tsunami unless we’re responsible in the way we vote.We’re seeing that now, and a LOT of the American mythos is about to be exposed as the lie it’s always been.But we’re not helpless, it’s just that our resistance is going to be peaceful and lawful. It’s going to come in a way that we’ve been groomed and conditioned not to perceive. We’re at the point in the movie where Liam Neeson says, “They’re going to take you, and there’s not a damn thing you can do about it.” Then he proceeds to provide some scant instruction on what our resistance is actually going to look like.It’s not going to be glamorous or heroic. We’re in the trenches. It’s going to get ugly. It’s going to be demeaning.But we’re going to win, because what is happening right now is not acceptable.I hope you enjoy this conversation!You all make this newsletter happen!
