Strawberry Fields Forever. So appropriate now for the hard working people working in the California fields. More than just a song it’s a reflection of John Lennon's personal struggles, a call for love and belonging, and an invitation to embrace diversity and unity. “Nothing is real.”
“Let me take you down
'Cause I'm going to strawberry fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry fields forever.”

He wants war. He NEEDS war for a number of reasons: To take power over us, to gain popularity with us, and because Trump just LOVES conflict. Especially if he’s beating up someone who he thinks is weaker than him.

He will punish us because millions marched against him and so few showed up to his narcissist parade, you could hear the tanks squeaking. Once again crowd size will embarrass him. He’ll punish us and then he back down a little. Because he’s weak and unwell.

“Strongman” politicians project their supposed strength by attacking immigrants, people of color, and the LGBTQ+ community. But these groups of people aren't the "threats" we should be worried about. Who is? The oligarchs who earn their keep by exploiting the rest of us.
