Well, it will be one heck of a job to reach anthros who believe that planning and executing postive movements to make our country better is a communist/socialist/devil-driven plot against them, even the assurance of lower medical insurance costs and a possible $2000-dollar check to help them through difficult times!
Better education (!), better housing, new jobs and better job-protection, NO de-funding of police (the Dems have NEVER wanted de-funding) but better programs to ensure equality and protection for all, better child-care programs, lower tuition for college, and so much more, all are viewed as the work of the devil…jeez, Louise.
But mama and papa have read a lot on both sides and found that evangelical leaders might possibly be a source of guidance for those Trump followers who are appalled at the “patriots” attack on our government, and this is very positive news.
Reaching the “patriots” may take years and years of showing them that their vaccinated world will bring prosperity and jobs and a better life for them and their families.
Fictitious “reality”, however, is tough to change. Maybe dialogues, one on one, SEEING one another, acknowledgeing the problems that are the roots of uprisings, maybe….
We have to stay positive. Not easy. Not easy to get close to a weapon-brandishing “patriot”…
But hope springs eternal.
As do snoozes…
Okay, now, stop looking at my tummy, okay? It always looks like this when I’m spread out…
…well, today, anyway.
Each human can do their part by educating themselves, listening to both sides, and getting information and facts from credible sources, so they can then make informed decisions.
One who perpetrates lies over a long period of time is often believed.
Those so called patriots are nothing more than rabble who make half brained excuses for bad behavior
Thw thing is, they are more than dangerous…never has the USA seen what these misguided humans can do.
SO WELL SAID, LOULOU – but that’s why Mamma moved to France – things are too slow in the US!!
It’s just that they do not seem to SEE the people who have become radicals. They were not BORN radicals….
I agree, all we can do it stay positive.
Yes, we’ll do that for sure.
Some have said “Time wounds all heels.”
Mom keeps saying “time will tell”…..just when we think we know how things will go, it changes. Tomorrow is an unknown. We just take one day at a time and hope for the best. The best is hard to FIND these days but hope is always there!!!
Hugs, Teddy
Yes, time helps all, but not always heals. This uprising is a big wound.
