After we survive all of this --what shall we do with our big oil and big tech "friends." ...🤔 I've thought that Guantanamo should become the new "(Former) Billionaires Island." 😁

We're all clear that these "detention centers" aren't intended for immigrants, right? --Who else here is likely to be on the permanent guest list?

Oh, be still my heart! 😍😁

😡

Golly. Got MRI? :-(

😮... 🤯... 😵‍💫... 😮... Just one wow! after another...

2) When so much of life around us goes on as normal, how do we maintain the sense of urgency required to create and implement effective grassroots strategies to defeat this regime?

1) What if the most dangerous thing right now isn’t what’s happening—but how normal it still feels?

4) The original post that inspired the #UntilThereAreBombs :

...Why aren’t we protesting every day? Why aren’t we striking? Why aren’t we sitting in? Because we can grab moments of normalcy That feel safe and assuring While the constitution figuratively burns Unconsciously waiting Until bombs hit our homes So, for now, we will take one latte grande, please

2) The resistance isn't moving with the urgency required because, even among those of us paying attention, we can live in partial denial that this IS a war -- as life goes on as normal around us.

1) A friend wrote a powerful poem, "Until There Are Bombs" who said she was inspired my my A Substack post, "Urgency."

2) Using #Crosstianity or #Crosstian makes a clear distinction between those who twist religious language for power and those who try to follow Jesus in caring for the vulnerable and welcoming the stranger. Crosstians will hate it -but the truth may start more cracks in their Cathedral of Cards.

1) When talking about Xian nationalism please use GBShaw's term #Crosstian or #Crosstianity: a warped version of Christianity focused on the "look": the cross and public piety, but without Judeo-Christian ethics or Jesus's social gospel teachings. Discussed in my Substack "Looking Left Project."

Part II of my short series discusses how to bring down the Crosstian right's Cathedral of Cards. lookingleftproject.substack.com/p/crosstiani...

If we skillfully and repeatedly point out the contrast between the left’s compassionate social vision and the Crosstian right’s defiance of what Jesus actually taught, more people will start to see it, as well.

When the symbol of the cross replace the teachings behind it, George Bernard Shaw called that “Crosstianity.”

That’s why I wrote about what G.B.Shaw call “Crosstianity”—when the symbol of the cross replaces the teachings behind it.

But movements built on fear and moral contradiction often contain the seeds of their own collapse.

Many Americans assume Christian nationalism is politically unstoppable.

I hope you'll check out my latest post. The teachings of Thich Nhat Hanh and Dr. King have much to offer us during these times.

Please check out my new "Looking LEFT!" post on a very cool strategic organizing model for growing the tipping point, and why talking to people outside the "Blue zone" is so important. --And if you like it, please share!

ACTION: Call Senators to add amendment to DHS funding bill: NO accessing voter records- as in GA and attempts in Minneapolis. All part of attempt to steal the election. Call your senators!

Ocean Beach this morning… just wow!!

Rude awakening be coming to the clan that George Bernard Shaw referred to as "Crosstians" their beliefs and actions ain't got nothing to do with Jesus or the core Social Gospel teachings of Christianity.

We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.

You wouldn’t vacation in Dachau in 1935. Don’t vacation in Florida in 2025.

Progressives & moderates need "family counseling" & until then, the movement & country are f'd -Seriously! We need well-facilitated trial grassroots sessions where members of both factions air their resentments, misconceptions & learn we agree on most goals. Get it toGETHER, on same page & ScRiPt!

My feelings exactly!

the cruelty of this administration is almost unfathomable. these are depraved people

This can't be legal. It has to stop!

They are probably January 6 Insurrectionists

Clever idea! 😎

Protesters against ICE in New York City are being led by Pikachu. NYC is awesome! 🤣

Support @aoc.bsky.social by making your own commitment to one hour of #activism a day. We need more involvement by everyone, on socials & in person. #usprotests #wearetheflood #mobilize.us #handsoffnow #teslatakedown

Linda McMahon, Secretary of Education, sent Harvard a letter. They graded it. Bwahahaha.

Well said. Amen!

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x convicted felon & adjudicated rapist Trump did.
