It takes billions of us to support the gluttons dictating our futures and the future of Mother Earth. The tiniest sliver of our population are orchestrating our enslavement and our demise.
We need to grind the wheels of capitalism to a halt. We are fueling the beast of corporate communism. We can no longer be blindly distracted by the latest shiny trinkets of consumerism and technology. Stop financing the billionaires war ravaging humanity. Let the Teslas rot on the lot. Let the Crypto pyramids crumble into the dust. Stop taking bites from the Apple of our own destruction. Starve the super computers and AI centres of our collective wisdom and die of thirst.
As hard as any spirutual excercise i can imagine. But i begin by trying to figure out what "respect" involves. My Unitarian Quaker Buddhist self says to respect ALL LIFE no matter how wrong its behavior. The tangle of mental and moral illness engulfing the seed of life in Trump cannot be honored. But somehow, somewhere i have faith that that seed is there. And my soul wants to live in a Universe in which reverence is always possible.
Good luck with that and I respect your lofty goal. But there is no "seed" left in him. Whatever he had he spent it long ago (some of it with children).

It's too late for men with butterfly nets, it will take a "Third World" type coup to arrest and convict all these criminals currently occupying the White House.
Joy, I heard your convo with Schmit (sp) I think it aired on October 30. Can I just say if anyone is interested in history and the flip flopping of dems to republicans throughout, she gives such an AMAZING break down. Joy you are sooo smart. You should look into teaching at one HBCU's you would be a wonderful professor. If not HBCU's which I personally would rather see you at, just generally you know your stuff. So happy you continued on after MSNBC. Proud to be part of your house Joy.
💕…Just the ⚡️I needed. Yep …this is a planned attack and Trump’s the character actor used to manipulate mod Reps and other non MAGA cult members into drinking the MAGA koolaide and now all Americans are suffering b/c NOBODY can control Trump’s grifting. He doesn’t have “good” Christian values. He’s not good at business. He doesn’t care about the anything but self gratification.
GOP gave up power and abandoned oversight and now Trump is a GOP liability. Trump was to tired and or toxic to campaign for GOP candidates.
I don’t believe Trumps physically or mentally able to run again. That’s why he’s rushing to collect all the wealth he can. The threats of a 3rd term are strategic attempts to manipulate how Dems prepare for the 2028 election. Attempts to distract from important issues happening now in real time.
Dems have the opportunity to rise from the ashes like a Phoenix… “Warriors Defending America Democracy”. They have in this moment a chance to regain RESPECT from die heart Dem voters, to motivate young, new and or Indep voters to VOTE BLUE. These are the folks needed to 🛑 Project 2025 progression. To win some gov control/real oversight capabilities.
Trump’s a bully no matter how rich he gets he’s not going to be happy and it won’t buy him the respect he desperately craves.
True respect is earned by actions, displays of competence, integrity, courage and willingness to stand on what’s right even when it’s hard. Bullying has gain Trump compliance and false words of praise, but not respect.
Shared this with substack! Oh my! What an article! I’m aware of what is going on! Please explain why the Governor of Colorado didn’t make laws to keep all of this from happening! I heard he even got angry with a female and hurt her! That is unacceptable to me! Being violent is wrong towards anyone!
Thank you, Joy-Ann Reid! This made my morning.
May all your dreams for this administration and every single one of its enablers big and small come true!
I love the sharpness of your writing this morning. Just a long time fan from Nebraska.
We've heard enough from all these fascists.
It's high time for a GLOBAL REVOLUTION.

That’s a really perfect song to summarize our loathing of that fat Florida fůċk and his whole weird legion of doom.

You go, girl! I hate all of them with the intensity of a trillion suns.
