Yes exactly! There are people I can think of that could step up, but they're all playing nice right now. I understand why they are, hoping mid term elections will change things, but I worry about all that is being done now and wonder how much can be undone.

I don't disagree with you. WE need to do something. But without a true leader to rally behind our getting off the couch makes no difference to those in power. We can do little things, but we need to do much bigger things. Get noticed, be heard in numbers too large to ignore. We need a leader!

They assume we're hormonal or overreacting emotionally. They discredit and discount the depression. We are expected to lighten men's load, never add to it. They can tolerate our disease or depression until it affects the quality of their lives, then they expect us to "man up" and get over it.

My experience is that they accept we're depressed but discount the depression as hormonal, absurd, or without merit. We are not allowed to be depressed because our role in men's lives is to please them and keep them happy. They believe we're depressed, they just lack empathy and don't care.

It isn't going to happen. So many don't know, care or believe the truth of what's happening. Those that know are scared of the very real repercussions that spreading the truth will do to them. Look to Fauci - receiver of death threats, federal security recalled, because he tried to help us in crisis

Not gonna happen. They want the money and the ratings. What happens to this country is so far down the list it's practically fine print.

Apparently we're too polite to fight. Too heartbroken to carry on, too tired to keep going. The troops will respond to the rally call of a true leader - just as soon as one presents themselves, as soon as one isn't afraid of becoming target # 1 in this political climate.

Until THEM becomes US. It seems we, collectively, don't care when something happens to them, but care deeply when something happens to us. Ex: I supported common sense gun reform, but wasn't fully invested until my niece was shot & killed by her boyfriend. Them became us that horrible night.

Thank you for posting this. It's true. My adult Autistic son will be affected on multiple levels by all of this.

I hope he holds his breath while waiting for it...

I used to love Jewel, I can't anymore. She certainly had the freedom to choose and we have the freedom to choose to delete her from our memories. Bad decisions have consequences, and like most people, she'll learn that the hard way.

They're already building them in Texas

They are creating an America where only the strongest survive, very Darwin of them. The more ppl that get sick and die the less "burden" they will be for the govt. "Purifying" the populace is straight out of the Nazi playbook.
