Some Favorite URLs For Explaining Where We Are
Many millions of us must correctly comprehend our collective situation if we are to win the war to defend American Democracy and American Liberty from the domestic enemies of the Constitution who have been making war on it since the mid-1970's. Their war is reaching its intended conclusion and only by understanding and fighting for freedom from the bastards who want to steal everything they can, will we have a good chance of success. The Founders understood well that the domestic enemies of the Constitution were more dangerous than the foreign enemies. General Milley was right when he explained that "Trump" (not the real family name, rather a marketing slogan) is the greatest danger the U.S.A. has ever faced.
The big picture is that half the electorate is stunningly ignorant of civics and public affairs, making themselves extraordinarily vulnerable to the bullshit volcano and his many co-conspirators. The vast majority of "Trump" voters cite reasons for choosing him which are entirely false. If we can't manage to teach one another how to recognize and reject the liars who want to steal what we have, we will not survive as a free people, nor will we have a snowball's chance in hell of learning to live sustainably so that the many beautiful features of our civilization and indeed the bulk of Creation itself can endure. It is the ultimate blasphemy to create the sixth great mass extinction, which is very rapidly exploding right before us. Those are the biggest reasons we need healthy American Democracy. There are many others.
