Capitalists are destroying the ecosystem. They don't realize that they will be among the victims of that.

I think that's more like the lack of a plan. Capitalists chase after short-term profits; they don't know how to plan ahead very well.

I do think Trump is much worse than Obama, but it bothers me that so many people think Obama was perfect.

Mammy Yokum taught me ethics when I was little. It's so simple, even ICE should understand it. (Why don't they?)

So we need to advertise some of the other places where people can hear your music. Tell me again what they are.

"at our best we at least tried to be" -- Sorry, I don't think so. Nearly all of our presidents have been as greedy as Trump; they just concealed it better.

Here is an abridged version of my leaflet. Maybe this shorter version can stand by itself.

Some humans are ecologists and climatologists. It would be a step forward if those of us who do not have the training and knowledge of ecologists and climatologists, could recognize the great value of that training and knowledge. If we could step away from the ignorance Asimov described.

I don't think so. "Human nature" is very malleable; different cultures have diffferent "normal" behaviors. Our present culture is a very sick one, in my opinion -- we need to change our culture to a healthier one. We need more friendship, more empathy. Here I side with Arendt, not Musk.

Here is a new essay, a little shorter than the one I've been promoting for the last few months. This one fits on one side of 1/2 page.

I could be mistaken, but I think land theft can be motivated by greed, or even beauty. One can be indifferent to the victims one is removing; one doesn't need to hate them. Manifest Destiny was seen as beautiful by the "settlers."

This coming Saturday is the No Kings demonstration in most cities. You can shop for a costume between now and then. If you want to be REALLY badass, print out some leaflets before Saturday, and try to hand them out. That's what I'll be doing.

I'm trying to figure out how and where I (a 75-year-old man) can wear my "Super Leafleteer" costume, and hand out leaflets, during the month of October, without getting into trouble. Suggestions?

I made myself a Halloween costume a couple of years ago, but I haven't used it yet. Maybe I'll get up the nerve this year? Keep in mind that I'm 75 years old. The main ingredients are gloves, cape, helmet, leaflets, and a T-shirt that says "SUPER LEAFLETEER."

I was greatly inspired by a recent statement Elon Musk made about empathy. I believe just the opposite, but now I feel better about saying so.

If there is any chance of the left capturing the Democratic Party, it must begin with understanding the LIE of that party. That party's politicians pretend to believe in empathy, but all but a handful are lying about that.

... The D's (the politicians, that is, not the voters), also do not believe in empathy, but in their rhetoric they pretend to believe in empathy. Anti-empathy is a basic ingredient of capitalism.

I think the oligarchs will only outlive the rest of us by a few days, or at most a few months.

The plutocrats believe they will survive the collapse in their bunkers. But they are mistaken -- they will only outlive the rest of us by a short time.

The plutocrats are idiots. They are destroying the ecosystem, and they'll only outlive the rest of us by a little bit. We need to overthrow them before it's too late.

... which they hope to exterminate with bullets, bombs, prisons, etc. In contrast, what we antifascists name as enemy is a CULTURE, not so easily isolated. 3/3

The "attribution fallacy" is that people tend to attribute good motives to their allies, and bad motives to their opponents, even for the same behavior.

The sign that I wore is copied below. I did manage to unload a few leaflets. After a while I got tired, and so I started saying "does anyone want some commie propaganda?" After that the leaflets went very quickly, and I soon ran out of leaflets. I'll bring more next time.
