Banks are Made of Marble by Les Rice

I've traveled round this country
From shore to shining shore
It really made me wonder
The things I heard and saw.

I saw the weary farmer
Plowing sod and loam
l heard the auction hammer
A knocking down his home

I’m gonna tell you fascists
You may be surprised
The people in this world
Are getting organized
You’re bound to lose
You fascists bound to lose

Race hatred cannot stop us
This one thing we know
Your poll tax and Jim Crow
And greed has got to go
You’re bound to lose
You fascists bound to lose.

1/2
You playboys and playgirls, ain’t gonna run my world, not now or no other time.

You fallout shelter sellers, can’t get in my door, not now or no other time.

Your Jim Crow grounds, can’t turn me around, not now or no other time.

—continued—

When is enough, enough?
When is the time just right?
How can we hate so hard?
How can we survive this plague?
Uncertainty drives us forward, ignorance is truly bliss. That is until you realize they’ll sacrifice you to the abyss.

We lost our generosity, our kindness, our love
We’ve embraced our greed, our cruelty, our hate
The inhumanity of humanity is pure insanity
We’ve lost the way to reach beyond ourselves and only care about ourselves.

Afternoon thoughts today.

Amazing that we have republican extremism and democrats who are trying to be the bigger person.
How about we go nuts on becoming progressive democrats!
While repubs aim for an oligarchy, we progressives can fight for the rights of the people who need it most.
☮️We shall overcome.

Maybe being the bigger person is no longer working.
Maybe it’s time to step up and start pulling from the repugnican playbook of obstructionism.
C’mon dem leaders, step it up, don’t do a single thing they want done.
The time to fight back is now.
It’s time to get truly progressive.

Let’s change up some language, please.
I am tired of the word offended.
I am NOT offended by racist, mysogynistic, tRump loving idiots, I am DISGUSTED by them.
I think it is time for a vocabulary change.
We shall overcome!

Just starting a thread about the Paradox of Tolerance.
My son shared a Wikipedia page about it, and would love to hear your thoughts about this topic.
I am not a natural philosopher, but I love learning from others.
Does this apply to our stories today?
And yes, I need to do more research.

Isn’t it time for dems to be even more progressive than ever?
I think holding the middle ground will get us nowhere.
Just my two cents.
☮️
We shall overcome

Go forth, noble stead, bring some joy to the world!
☮️
We shall overcome.

The infighting has already begun.
He needs shock value everyday.
While we need to stand up for the vulnerable, I think we need to sit back and see how he fails, because ultimately, he will. He is a master of chaos and ran the first four years pitting people against one another.
☮️
We shall overcome

Ok, can someone explain what’s with the invalid handle?
I tried changing my name, and nothing seems to work.
TIA

You matter.
You are worthy.
Do not let your story end.
I saw this statement, and as down as many feel, we will not let this story end.
Let us end their nightmare.
Let us unite and overcome their hatred.
We shall overcome.
☮️

Do not lose heart.
If you voted, you did your duty.
Do not allow him to take your health and inner peace.
You are more important than the clown show.
Keep informed.
We have decided to take a walk and talk politics, rather than poisoning our home with it.
We shall overcome.
☮️

Today is World Kindness Day.
Celebrate by being kind every single day!

I might have a fabric problem.
Though, it is very uplifting during these semi dark days.
I fear darker ones are coming, so let’s continue to lift one another up, be the light in the darkness.
We can do better, and we WILL!
