Creating a New America


"Educating Ourselves During this Dangerous Time"


We must recognize the absolute necessity of changing ourselves and our country in a permanent manner:

  1. We need to educate ourselves so we understand:
    • How we allowed ourselves to be lulled asleep by a tyrannous gang of crooks

    • How we can prevent it happening again

  2. We must create a new American commonwealth of, by, and for all the people.


America is such a rich and dynamic country that it's easy for its inhabitants to merely enjoy its fruits and feel no obligation to understand and preserve its precious heritage.

But the Bush junta and its Republican and Democratic collaborators became so outrageous in their corruption and oppression, that they momentarily aroused many Americans from their slumber of ignorance. Now we must make sure that the cabal doesn't lull Americans back into somnolence. Our first task is to gain an understanding of what kind of people we've allowed ourselves to become and how we've permitted our nation's principles to be degraded and destroyed.

The world’s power structures have always ‘divided to conquer’ and have always ‘kept divided to keep conquered.’ As a consequence the power structure has so divided humanity--not only into special function categories but into religious and language and color categories--that individual humans are now helplessly inarticulate in the face of the present crisis. They consider their political representation to be completely corrupted, therefore, they feel almost utterly helpless.”

R. Buckminster Fuller, Critical Path

I believe what Fuller says - people must rise up, they must hold the very rich and powerful to account - it is anathema to those who possess wealth or power to give it up - what do we do then? Just take it? I don't know what to do, it depresses me more all the time.

I'm always struck by how our better thinkers are largely ignored, and how our course is so often set by dim-witted pretenders.

Man is superior to the stars if he lives in the power of superior wisdom. Such a person being the master over heaven and earth by means of his will is a magus and magic is not sorcery but supreme wisdom

TERRORISM NEWS


'The nationalist not only does not disapprove of atrocities committed by his own side, but he has a remarkable capacity for not even hearing about them'.....'Every war when it comes, or before it comes, is represented not as a war but as an act of self-defense against a homicidal maniac.'.....'In times of universal deceit, telling the truth will be a revolutionary act.'.....'War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.' George Orwell
