Some Final Twittervism Before a Vacation Break
A year has passed since I ramped up production of blog entries with a break at the end of 2017. This weekend marks the anniversary of the Charlottesville atrocity, the murder of Heather Heyer, and the two police officers who died in a helicopter crash that was present because of the Far Right rally. Since then, I took part in the short gubernatorial campaign of Ameya Pawar, set up a ton of monthly donations to non-profits and political causes that are close to me, went to a few rallies/protests about immigration, attended an even about socialism movements in Honduras and the Phillipines, and an Indivisible where a liberal Congressman disappointed me with talk about process, access, influence, and money. It's been half a decade of a year! Tariffs don't fortify national defense. However, voting does. Go out & vote in November.

So, yeah, this trade war just helps our competitors. [Wait. . .did Pompeo degitimize Trump in his testimony to Congress?] #PluralismTrack: Does anyone know why there was such a huge drop in disposable income 2014 even as consumer spending increased at a steady rate? It provides some concurrence with some other teams I've seen. Unspoken translation to conservative "How are we going to pay for social programs that sound attractive?" ~ "Why will us white people have to pay for non-white people?" when the answer to the voiced question is "The 1% & others who got tons of money off most of our backs." Did some research. ACA started 2014. Major cold snap at beginning of 2014. By end, economy did good, there was some major job growth, & that's when economy did major turnaround. How much was 2016 Election a reaction to 2014 & earlier? Trump freeze consciousness w/ announcement? Feels like we're doing 'walk of shame' after the 2016 Election, a hangover from Great Recession, coming to grips in 2014 when things started to turn around. Correction: Increasing taxes on the 1% not enough to aid the United States. Taxes need to increase on top 20%. Unfortunately, they're most civic mind & do most to protect their own. #PluralismTrack REALLY detailed precinct voter map for 2016 General Election.https://t.co/vXfm1qCWl5 "I can't do this alone.

That's a very good sign they want to rule rather than serve. EU pledge to buy more soybeans means little. Trump learning needs allies & is put up a front status quo w/ allies & acting w/ Russians is progress. All optics. *Sigh* #FreedomCaucus on the Far Right, #JusticeCaucus on the Far Left. . .can we have an #EmpathyCaucus? I'm not considering it moderate or centrist, but Freedom and Justice don't feel human enough. If this encounter is representative of the Establishment Dems, I feel like they want to be bipartisan in the office but partisan on the campaign, focusing more on their base than trying to get independent voters on their side. Don't agree with this article 100%, but as part of the "Oregon Trail" generation & having hope written off by an Establishment rep, idea correct. #PluralisTrack: And then I saw taxes as a social justice issue similar to something like the Civil Rights Act. . .kinda like accidentally walking into a wall trying to catch a ball. #PluralismTrack #PluralismTrack Appreciate a consistent states-rights Republican arguing against GOP tax dodges introduced by 2017 Tax Bill b/c it takes away money from public schools.

Five Things Americans Don’t Understand about Politics - Resiliencehttps://t.co/v2aEAwDdw8 Friends & connections in Michigan, I'm having a lot of political debates with people from Michigan.

This, people not able to advertise legitimate fundraisers. . .what's next? No posts at all anymore? #PluralismTrack Wait. . .this interview of a mayor pushing for a compassionate city is in the same state that made Mitch McConnell?

That's one of the things I always fail to understand about the rich, the global economy, etc. etc. If all the money accumulates at the top, there won't be anyone to buy what's being made or offered as a service. Then CRASH! About California but argues something smart: Candidates need motivating messaging & positioning beyond impeach & resist Trump. Heck, I'm all for it, but we need more. #PluralismTrack So the ACLU gets how to win people over, but Establishment Democrats (this ep about ACLU, not Dems). #PluralismTrack But admittedly, in some locales, now that some primaries have passed, Establishment Dems are still better than what's in office now or what aims to take office. So the Right in the US complains that citizens don't work hard enough while non-citizens come to this country then work too hard & are willing to get paid less. How much are people supposed to work & supposed to get paid? (Note: I know these are dog whistles on the Right). Why is Trump putting out negativity? He wants to mobilize base that feels "persecuted" like him & encourage voter self-suppression of independents & the Left. Don't self suppress. Get out there for primaries & November 6 & let your opinion be heard in the minimum participation. Reason is more history than science, & unsatisfying to author & us. Just finished watching season 3 of #HUMANS last night. A favorite topical & "human" SF shows since binge watching season 1 one afternoon. Season 2 went quick.

It’s about transparency and fairness. #ReleaseTheRecords Senators are heading home today and tomorrow—including Collins and Murkowski. They’re on recess through Aug 13. Folks, this is the time to make it clear: NO on Kavanaugh. Airports, town halls, farmer’s markets, office drop-bys—it’s time to show up.

What kind of exposure to space images do conservative areas get? Climate change sentiment? Very likely true, though I'm sad re: quote of person that says that they don't vote because nothing ever changes. Ermmm, get enough more people to vote, and maybe it will. Folks who think Nazis were leftist 'cuz there's "socialist" in the name must get really confused by "buffalo wings." So now we're getting into the Executive Privilege of George W Bush? Things are going to get ugly since we don't even understand the full Privilege of the US President, since we're making this stuff up as we go along (as it should be, but ARGH!). https://t.co/m5UcAhwvun While this white woman is able to weaponize her autism against black people, black autistics have our autism weaponized against us.

I'm coming to understand that #Election2016 was about #TyrannyOfTheMajority, that majority being that of money, influence, access, & process where Fed politicians see these factors as primary to getting things done protecting the minority, incl lower classes who we might not. . . Regression. Good exploration of how results of #Election2016 started in 2010. Exploding Targets used in target practice are causing a lot of forest fires. Yo, people who like guns, stop destroying our environment & threatening human lives with your exploding targets. President Trump describes himself as a “stable genius” and then mocks the intelligence of LeBron James. Thanks to CNN interviewer Don Lemon who reminds us LeBron is building classrooms while the President is building detention centers. I can appreciate Illinois for upping its game on sexual and consent education. #PluralismTrack If a judge or jury thinks NRA should be able to sell liability insurance for intentionally shooting someone, I don't know, give up or up resistance, both? Except for the ending, this story sounds familiar to national politics since 2008. . .except for maybe that Chicago had a more capable total leader afterward. "[. . .] liberals focused their efforts on specific advocacy issues rather than institutions. [. . .]" TRUTH! People on left disaffected with institutions. At the signing ceremony of #VRA53, President Johnson called the Voting Rights Act “a triumph for freedom as huge as any victory that has ever been won on the battlefield.” Racism, sexism, anti-Semitism, homophobia, and transphobia are real in this country. The Russians know that — they attacked us demographically and geographically. And they’re still trying to divide us and conquer. This is an urgent national security threat. Wise words from @CynthiaNixon at #NN18: “We can’t just give people something to vote against. We have to give them something they’re going to want to show up and vote for.” Time for the Democratic party to embrace a bold, radically progressive agenda. https://t.co/sAXxx6C2XU #PluralismTrack I got my pledge in! #PluralismTrack Uncanny Magazine Issue 23 Part 2 features DINOSAUR fiction/poetry by Brooke Bolander, Brit E.

The media exaggerates negative news. This distortion has consequences - The Guardianhttps://t.co/5PT5QRhb7J Trump admitted he attacks press to shield himself from negative coverage, Lesley Stahl says - The Washington Posthttps://t.co/WJ2btBfjRd So, in sum, press does have a propensity for negativity, in general, because that's what gets attention & positive things happen slower. Nonetheless, Trump is a gaslighter, & he's intentionally confusing the public because, I believe, he's addicted to chaos, it's his normal. [Trump isn't really doing much to restructure economy & is doing more to hurt it. We're still getting benefits from Obama/Fed economy. Also note Rep says need more immigrants.] I don't want to prop up conspiracy theorists, but I really have to give them credit for the amount imagination & creativity used to distort reality to explain their beliefs & ideas of how things work. If they didn't have such closed minds, they could write some interesting novels #PluralismTrack This might be my favorite one so far:
I deserve a break from blogging for awhile! Unless I get whipped up into some passion, I expect to stay away for about two weeks.
