Maybe this post is better placed here.
.. The tragedy of freedom paired with a weak concept of commonality.
I keep reading long complex dense jargon filled paragraphs, full of the minutiae that political junkies love but the massive central conflicts just get buried.
Thing is, "political" differences reduced to whether this dam should be built or this tax should be reduced/raised miss the point.
Thing is" what is it you feel/believe about your relationship to your local community. your state. your country, the rest of the world.
Thing is "who am I in all this?"
Till we start going there, we will forever be electing, supporting, Fascist leaders who push an "Us First" agendae...and we will be forever electing them, every 60 -70 yrs,( a generation or so), after tiny burst of "feel good" liberalism. that are regrettably short-lived cause we never stopped to figure out "why".
