I am going to have a subsequent article breaking down all of the opinions, but I wanted to get this one out quickly to you all because it is a historic opinion, one that will create significant inequities across America.

AAron, love you brother....as a subscriber I'd suggest you check how comments are posted here....seems newest comments are scrambled, moved to the bottom or disappeared altogether..makes it difficult to read through them...other than that, keep up the great work you're doing.

You can filter comments by oldest, newest, or top. Top is the default.

how? I don't see any clear way to do that, like a drop down menu etc. And what is meant by "top comments" ?

Expand full comment
Boston Blake's avatar

Oh, wow. I see it's a problem. The option seems to appear and disappear. When visible on the website, the menu is to the right of the bolded **Comments** heading above the text entry box. On the app, it's a tiny box with two arrows on the top navigation bar above **Comments**. As wonderful as Substack is for writing, the navigation UI needs a lot of work.

This regime is far too "OK" with all manner of significant inequities. And we need to make that very, VERY uncomfortable for them, at the same time as we note and record and distribute w i d e l y every infringement of civil rights. We DO NOT HAVE TO ACCEPT the monumental immorality, nor the criminality, nor the treachery of this "reign of atrocity!"

Trump, et al, this nation wants you -- ALL of you -- GONE!! We deplore your heinous plans to enslave Americans and loot the country, your filthy bigotry, your disregard and flouting of our core values and our Constitution, your consistent mendacity and glorification of tragic, dangerous, willful ignorance!

Easy way, or the HARD WAY, but

GONE you will be. Start

packing your bags (not your

stupid guns or ill-gotten

fortunes!!). You ain't seen nothin' yet; The People will not rest until the legion crimes of this regime against The People's government and the wellbeing of countless individuals, have been judged fully and expiated.

Count on it.

Don't give up, EVER!! It ain't over until it's actually over -- and it won't be.

Every traitorous, tyrannical movement hopes that the potential "subjects" will obey in advance.

You had better be awfully grateful that you happened by some grace to be born on this landform--it was nothing that you earned or qualified for or planned or paid for--it was the grace given to your parents having been born here and the grace of their parents etc. Noting that you can claim and lord over anyone else as if you had done something special to deserve this. Have some understanding about what this means to those who have dreamed, fought, fled and struggled to be able to come and find a way to get through the currrent impossible immigration system.

It is real, but the body had to have the same aspects to house the same awareness. They can only come into the flesh of their own ancestry, generally and with several noticeable exceptions. This is why diversity is so important, because changing the aspects, it's like changing the chords in a song, the whole shape of reality changes depending on the nature of us, living embodied beings, how we act, and how we are prone to act

I started researching where to move my family the day after the election. There are four countries on our list: Mexico, Canada, New Zealand, and Costa Rica. Each one offers a better shot at healthcare, safety, and democratic stability than what we’re facing here.

I told my husband I’ll fight for our human rights for as long as I can, but when the time comes, I’m leaving, with or without him.

I read Project 2025 before this administration stole the election, and I knew it would come to this. The dreams and visions I’ve had about America’s future are already coming true.

With every cell in my body, I hope it doesn’t come to this. But I’ve been preparing, just in case.
