All too true! This is, unfortunately, going to be a divisive and angry fall. Take care of yourselves. Take care of your families and friends. We are going to spend years getting over this and in so many ways we're all going to lose a lot moving ahead no matter what the results.

The essence of electoral democracy is equality. Whenever equality is compromised (e.g. big money, gerrymandering, unequal district population distribution), democracy is compromised, distrust grows, and political rights are undermined. The risk is real.

Don't waste time fighting Alberta separatists (you won't change any minds). Instead, spend your time motivating politically non-engaged federalists.

The Albertans who are/were so concerned about election integrity that they got rid of vote tabulators and are having a referendum on voter photo ID, seem much less concerned about the breach of the voters list.

This is exactly why language matters: “women were given the vote” frames equality as a gift from men, instead of hard won political power extracted through organized resistance. Nobody gave women anything. Women fought, marched, strategized, endured violence, went to prison and died for it.

My biggest conspiracy theory is that telling working class people that engagement in the arts is a middle / upper class thing and to do so makes you a class traitor is a psyop to make them disengaged with themselves and the world and the beauty of being human, so that they accept worse treatment.

By staying on, Powell is showing that the Federal Reserve can withstand immense political pressure. He’s also denying Trump the ability to appoint a new governor, and he could act as a counterweight if Kevin Warsh, the likely next chair, takes actions to please Trump. www.ms.now/opinion/jero...
