Great and true reflection, Guy. Excellent reminder of the absolute necessity of fun and the intrigue of the outlaw/trickster. I often think of how much fun the left could be having but isn't. How on earth did they become the stiff ones? This is a good attempt at unveiling that. Personally, I miss a left I never really knew. I miss the hippie left, the Beat left, the George Carlin, Allen Ginsberg, and John Lennon left.
"And from a young person's perspective: still climate change is upon us, Israel slaughters children on a daily basis, and the incumbents apparently do next to nothing."
Yet when we LOOK, the incumbents ARE doing plenty. So I ask, are you familiar with the Russian/FarRt infiltration of local ISPs and the blocking/diverting of progressive info across all platforms?
My experience - only when I am logged in - is that Searches give ONLY FarRt Results, Posts that debunk lies have the text turned the same color as the background (=invisible), groups are siloed into echo chambers,, emails and physical mail disappear, literally, and more. Even my attempts to report this to the FBI have been blocked.
If we can break THIS, we could get through. Remember the WaPo study where people recently lost in MAGAland were shown true info, and **60% of them changed back!**
Anyone got a Blue/Neutral FBI contact? I have physical evidence.
No society run by behavioral anarchistic leaders have ever survived. Fun to identify them. Foolish to empower them.
Loved this analysis of our moment through the trickster lens. Very revealing!
Thanks Matthew!

Thanks James! Yes, that's the vibe I resonate with, the sixties trickster left.
