This
is where I stand:
The 45th President, his power hungry cronies taking positions of authority in his Cabinet and administration, and the majority in Congress are a real and active threat to me, my way of life, and all or most of the people I love.
The American Relayer - Issue 6
Politics in the United States
Some people are saying that we
should give Cheetos Mussolini a chance, that we should "work
together" with him because he won the election and he is
"everyone's president." This is my response:
•I will
not "work together" to privatize Medicare, cut Social
Security and Medicaid.
•I will not "work together" to
build a wall.
•I will not "work together" to persecute
Muslims.
•I will not "work together" to shut out
refugees from other countries.
•I will not "work together"
to lower taxes on the 1% and increase taxes on the middle class and
poor.
•I will not "work together" to help the
President to line his pockets and those of his family and cronies.
•I
will not "work together" to weaken and demolish
environmental protection.
•I will not "work together"
to sell American lands, especially National Parks, to companies which
then despoil those lands.
•I will not "work together"
to enable the killing of whole species of animals just because they
are predators, or inconvenient for a few, or because some people want
to get their thrills killing them.
•I will not "work
together" to remove civil rights from anyone.
•I will not
"work together" to alienate countries that have been our
allies for as long as I have been alive.
•I will not "work
together" to slash funding for education.
•I will not "work
together" to take basic assistance from people who are at the
bottom of the socioeconomic ladder.
•I will not "work
together" to get rid of common sense regulations on guns.
•I
will not "work together" to eliminate the minimum wage.
•I
will not "work together" to support so-called "Right
To Work" laws, or undermine, weaken or destroy Unions in any
way.
•I will not "work together" to suppress
scientific research, be it on climate change, fracking, or any other
issue where a majority of scientists agree this fascist and his
supporters are wrong on the facts.
•I will not "work
together" to criminalize abortion or restrict health care for
women.
•I will not "work together" to increase the
number of nations that have nuclear weapons.
•I will not "work
together" to put even more "big money" into
politics.
•I will not "work together" to violate the
Geneva Convention.
•I will not "work together" to give
the Ku Klux Klan, the Nazi Party and white supremacists a seat at the
table, or to normalize their hatred.
•I will not "work
together" to deny health care to people who need it.
•I
will not "work together" to deny medical coverage to people
on the basis of a "pre-existing condition."
•I will
not "work together" to increase voter suppression.
•I
will not "work together" to normalize tyranny.
•I will
not “work together” to eliminate or reduce ethical oversight at
any level of government.
•I will not "work together"
with anyone who is, or admires, tyrants and dictators.
•I will
not support anyone that thinks it's OK to put a pipeline to transport
oil on Sacred Ground for Native Americans. And, it would run under
the Missouri River, which provides drinking water for millions of
people. An accident waiting to happen.
•I will not "work
together" to legitimize racism, sexism, and
authoritarianism.
This is my line, and I AM drawing it.
•I
WILL stand for honesty, love, respect for all living beings, and for
the beating heart that is the center of Life itself.
•I WILL use
my voice and my hands, to reach out to the uninformed, and to anyone
who will LISTEN:
That "winning", "being great
again", "rich" or even "beautiful" is
nothing... When others are sacrificed to glorify its existence.
This
appeared on my Facebook News Feed yesterday, and I resonate
completely with its content. So, I have signed it and posted this in
its entirety on my Lantern of the Hermit blog. One comment was posted
(prior to my receiving it) which I AM choosing to keep anonymous on
this re-post along with everyone else who signed it, in order to respect their personal privacy. Comment is included, as it shows how we are able to save our Republic:
“In
case anyone hasn't noticed, we're in a complete corporate takeover
here. The rhetoric about draining the swamp and helping the little
guy was never the plan. Now it's time to forget this false alignment
with party and join as Americans to fight against this dangerous and
very present evil.”
Starve the beast... Abolish the inter-corporate
state!
