A little ray of hope

See The Rules on the Trump phenomenon. It's not unique to America but a trend happening around the world. As the people get fed up with a neoliberal system that trashes them in favor of the rich and powerful we strike back blindly by electing so called anti-establishment, authoritarian leaders in the hopes of change. But such leaders are prime examples of the very system they claim to decry. Hence the political system is corrupt to the core and we must look elsewhere to effect the change we want to see in this world.


"So it’s time to come together, taking time to remember the earth. Remember all the successful struggles for justice that came before us, and imagine all those to come. Remember that social movements are growing all over the world and realising the common struggle. Remember life. Then, organise. Find each other and help midwife the inevitable transition that brings forth from the ashes of neoliberal capitalism a system that works for the good of all life on Mother Earth. This is not just activism; this is our responsibility as human beings alive as this all unfolds. This is why we are here."
