Whew - Naps Later, After We Read Up, Cool Down, & Wind Down - Saturday Night OT

 


I'm imbibing a LOT of electrolytes after having been out longer than I thought I'd be today

There've been reports that Hurricane Erin is intensifying into a Cat 5 storm



and the same thing is going on on three separate continents and I'm concerned because the wanna-be autocrats seem to have their stuff organized while the pro-democracy forces do not appear to do so 

(speaking of which, please have a word with your local League of Women Voters chapter and set them straight if they're clutching their pearls over using 21st-century tactics to fight 21st-century fascism)


but here is Professor Crenshaw explaining how it's happening in the U.S.

"This is what happens when we don't know enough about our history to protest its erasure"



and here on an entirely different continent are author Kelechi Okafor and Dr. Myriam François discussing the EXACT SAME THING 




Power and Resistance in a Gaslit Nation

“If you want fascism to rise, you have to convince white working-class people that their suffering isn’t caused by the elite who strip them of resources — it’s because Black and brown people are here. Don’t you know?”


^^ This one is long -- but it makes it much easier to see the global plan of these hyper-capitalists masquerading as world leaders in league with the techno-feudalists (they really believe they're all Caesar and the Empire is just not gonna fall this time) ... 


And let us not forget the wisdom of Calvin & Hobbes




Forgot it was Madonna's birthday
