we have to wait until the previous generation of wrinkling executives die off, until the new up and coming ones are starting dating the new day’s marginally more enlightened teenagers before the people behind the levers of power are interested in learning anything meaningful besides how to get behind levers.

I truly wish I did not believe what I just wrote

what we think doesn’t matter, only what we do. And one does not have to “buy” ideas, they are free to pick up and set down at any time, contrary to popular beliefs. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I don’t disagree with you. I simply fear that generations will pass with people still continuing to be sold to leaders of whatever system is in control before we can ever work meaningfully towards dismantling trafficking pipelines, if that could ever even be possible here.

I’m not advocating against voting for democrats, in case you were inserting that into your understanding of my position. I think if you can vote, you should vote for them this election, especially if you live in a christian nationalist community, since that would likely suggest that you would be directly contributing toward a more workable [pun found] position for the working (non-parasite) class in the future. That doesn’t have to mean that I expect any restorative policies out of the Democrats at the federal level any time soon. We can create new parties systems, it’s not illegal or impossible

They all chase incentives. They are only in congress in the first place as a career anyway. Idk if any democratic candidate has even been floating the idea of overturning citizens united recently, but until they become the party of money out of politics having made bribing politicians illegal and having re-nationalized the federal reserve the US currency system back from the parasite class, I think they both look nearly the exact same shade of purple to me. Once buying children from over seas is off the table and no epsteen class sociopaths are ever platformed again, politics may become a tool for protecting and producing avenues for upward mobility for the lowest quality of life individuals, families, and communities, both “domestic” and “foreign”

I wish I had all the answers. Here’s a blueprint I just came up with though:

Step 1 is education

Step 2 is conversation (we are here)

Step 3 is coordination (learning to swim)

Step 4 is execution (leaps of faith)

Step 5 is reconstruction (mind guides hands)

Step 6 is reflection (hearts inform minds)

Step 7 is integration (systems [re]design)

lawmen are too worried about people sleeping in cars to send any sort of sentiments up any type of chain

how I always took was that it’s like saying regardless and/or irregardless (regardless or not) with only one extra syllable instead of all 3, to be used as a changing-of-topics transition phrase.

But I remember a few times when some people would use the “longer version” at times when it seemed like they really only needed/meant to be using the word regardless.

FMP those people just liked saying the slightly longer word slightly more because it made them look/sound smarter.

I don’t know if I hallucinated that whole definition part into existence though because my sample size for this type of memory of conversations is limited in both total frequency and relative importance in moments when people have ever been using the word regardless, vs irregardlesses, around me
