Seeing from a Distance
Watching the US from abroad for nearly half a year now, it really looks like things are about to implode. The radical right continues to make inroads, promoting hate and fear, lying about everything, pushing the christofascist agenda. These things have a cycle. I don't know if/how it can be rolled back. It sure looks like karma to me. The genocide against the native people, the enslavement of Africans, building a nation on that foundation, how can it not eventually turn in on itself?
There are so many people working hard to stave off the violence and ecocide. That's beautiful. Resistance to fascism has always required bravery and commitment. We saw it in WWII. We've seen it in Chile. We saw it not succeed in Nicaragua, Venezuela. We see the antifascist movement in Spain courageously pushing forward.
Humanity as a whole has yet to awaken to what we are and how good it could be for everyone. As long as the greed and fear of the minority (of underdeveloped people) thrives, this will continue. I am just here to say that we have choices. Each and every one of us can choose who and what we are in the world. Every single day we each choose, whether we do it consciously or not. So, with love, I say...choose deliberately what you are in this world, because you matter, your choices and actions matter! 💕
