Aggressive and violent political tone takes the country to a place of reactive paranoia and fear. It also takes us to a fascistic corporatist state. We must have some hopeful idea to replace the fearful and vitriolic narrative of the right. That narrative only serves their interests and ensures their power. It is a dead end of progress to turn us upon one another in suspicion and violence.
Hope is more efficient than fear. Where is the hopeful narrative of what we may become, when we have a common dream? The right's dream is of the few and holds no promise for common opportunity.
Note: I troll the Net message boards, political and otherwise. I come across thoughts that must have a wider audience. So I put them on my Blog.
