Post No. 3,543 - Some random thoughts

Because so many weak-willed, amathiac, emotionally incompetent people have ALLOWED themselves to be scammed, the world is in a mess that it will not recover properly from - there will be a new normal for millennia because of the climate crisis, and many authoritarian governments because those weak-willed, amathiac, emotionally incompetent people have ALLOWED themselves to be perverted into becoming bad faith actors - agents of hate, suspicion, paranoia, and me-me-me. 

That is where we are now - and the re-election of the orange horror a second time, with active enablement from the bothsideism plagued, corporate captured "media" of TurtleoIsland and non-existent resistance from the corporate captured, weak-willed, amathiac, emotionally incompetent US Democrats which ALLOWED  Projecto2025 to be enacted to near completion has been the key. 

Am I being too harsh? 

Yes - absolutely, but (a) I am not far off the truth here, (b) I need a rant for the sake of my wellbeing, and (c) the people I am writing about need some shock therapy. 

Quite a a few of those people on TurtleoIsland (not here in Australia as yet - we’re at an early stage and have to go through a worse hell before we wake up) are now having buyer’s regret. That might help resolve the current crisis, but it means - UNLESS THEY CHANGE (develop critical thinking and emotional competence) they will be manipulated during the next similar crisis, and we will have to go through all this again! 

So ... I want everyone in the world to read Tad Stoermer’s book “A Resistance history of the United States” (pub. Steerforth Press [an imprint of Pushkin Press], West Lebanon [NH], 2026, ISBN 9781586424374; Pushkin, Kobo, Penguin Random House, Barnes & Noble, Apple Books, Amazon), and then start applying it.  

I want everyone to: 

combine 

generous, caring community-based living 

with 

DEI, human rights, and inclusion (communities can be places of hate and exclusion ... and cults) 

and 

being mature adults about NOT being reliant on others, so that they are not choosing to live a lifestyle that is vulnerable (this is generally done out of outdated conceptions around intimate/romantic relationships). 

I have seen that last point destroy quite a few relationships, and make aid attempts impossible to fulfil - some of that in my personal life. 

Go back to Tad Stoermer’s book, and understand that 

EVERY 

SINGLE 

THING 

YOU 

DO 

IN 

YOUR 

LIFE IS 

EITHER 

RESISTANCE 

OR 

COMPLIANCE  

and then rethink how you are living - in particular, note the lessons as described by Tad Stoermer shown by Ona Judge’s life, and then determine to do better.

IMO, OTAAT (“one term at a time”) is the next action to save representative  democracy, along with establishment of an organisation of human-rights observing  democracies as a functional alternative to the UN (especially the veto-sabotaged UN SC) which is a casualty of this war, but also note this “Vision for Humanity”

Post No. 3,463 - Another activism email

I have written another activism email, which may well be my last for this incarnation. 

*** 

Dear Members of Parliament, 

Since my retirement almost three years ago, I have spent some time considering what I consider a decline in the quality of Australian society - a decline marked by, IMO: 

• the rise of neoliberalism and, more recently, fascism (not recognised until too late, IMO), 
  including 
  (i) neoliberalism/fascism's anti-LGBTQIASB+ hate 
  and 
  (ii) neoliberalism/fascism's enabling of nominally "far right" actions/inactions/silences (particularly racist [i.e., white supremacist] actions against the Voice Referendum and other such actions by state and territory governments since the election of John Howard) 
  and 
  (iii) neoliberalism/fascism's massive (denial of the existence/value of and) destruction of human, social, and environmental capital; 
  
  and 
  
  
• a social and intellectual decline shown by 
  (a) the absurdity of petromasculinity (and, IMO, all resistance to action to address the clearly evidence-supported climate crisis), 
  (b) a growth in workplaces as cults, 
  (c) a backlash against progressivism and human rights in around the last 15 years; 
  and 
  (d) and indication of an end point from the USA, which, under the regime of the paedophile, convicted rapist & fraudster, incompetent businessperson and Hitler-admiring fascist currently leading it, has seen people in the MAGA cult knowingly and gleefully choose destruction rather than allowing any form of progressivism - a vile attitude currently growing in influence in Australia. 

I have long considered that we need, in Australia, to address these events by a better teaching of the life skill of critical thinking - and, 
as with the skill of swimming, which is measured, judged and assessed by its reduction of drownings, 
so too must the teaching of the life skill of critical thinking be measured, judged and assessed - I would suggest by its reduction in the number of Australians who fall prey to scams. 

I now also consider that the need to teach the life skill of emotional competence, which I have advocated for in areas of life outside government (including in my religion), now also needs to be included, to some extent, in government - much as the teaching of respect and consent are now the subject of government programmes intended to obtain a reduction of relationship violence. 

The reasons for my change of position are: 

1. the identification of petromasculinity, and that so many climate crisis deniers/minimisers are either intellectually flawed (ignore evidence or lack global perspective, including common but differentiated responsibilities) or based in emotional issues such as being overwhelmed by the scope of imminent changes and/or resentment based on illogical fears that others will gain relative to us despite the global nature of the destruction of the climate crisis,
2. the rise of anti-human cult-like workplaces,
3. the irrational, emotion-driven end point being shown on the USA and starting to be imported to Australia,and 
4. the apparent increase in the numbers of Australians being scammed - the overcoming of which requires both the skills of critical thinking and the emotional competence to recognise personal blocks (such as embarrassment and guilt) and weaknesses (such as falling to the appeal of get-rich-quick schemes, possibly out of a desire to support family) to allow those skills to be used. 

As with the teaching of swimming and critical thinking, I consider that the teaching of the life skill of emotional competence should be measured, judged and assessed, and I would suggest this be done by: 

• the reduction in the number of Australians who fall prey to scams (which also requires monitored teaching of critical thinking and, as with swimming, if the result is inadequate, adjust the teaching to improve its effectiveness based on the evidence), 
• the success of the teaching of respect and consent, as measured by an ACTUAL reduction of violence in relationships  (which also requires continuation of those programmes and, if the result is inadequate, adjust the teaching to improve its effectiveness [noting the range of personalities to be catered for, as well as matters such as neurodivergence, trauma, and shyness] based on the evidence), and 
• the success of psychosocial safety in the workplace, with the most appropriate measurement of that yet to be determined. 
  

No reply to this email is necessary.
