For weeks oil & gas CEOs have been publicly criticizing the Trump regime’s oil geopolitics (all while their profits soar). I suspect this is a new form of PR: “sanewashing,” where oil & gas execs disassociate themselves from Trump, claim “reasonableness,” when of course in truth they support him.

How do you define democracy? Here’s how I define it in On Mindful Democracy: “a communal practice of working together to care for ourselves, each other, and the life that we share.” Think of how things would change if we returned democracy to what really matters, and started talking to each other.
