Are we stronger than hate? (#1863)

Time will tell on this one in our current era. Here in America we have as a whole become less involved in our society's structure and more involved in our own concept of self-gratification. We do this at our peril since there are forces out there who are not modern nor are they reasonably civilized. They have a thirst for power and control that cannot be sated. I will tell you here that these abominable forces are embedded within the Republican party and they are pushing their agenda through such deception that even some who pay attention cannot comprehend their subtle power play against us. By us I mean regular ordinary American folks who not only want better for our own lives but for the next generations that follow. All of us need to stop thinking about our own situations so much and start thinking about the big picture of our society. We cannot just trust that leaders in our country are fighting for us. A lot of them are instead fighting for a small faction of wealthy people who wish to subvert our democracy in favor of their "cure" for our lives. They have the added sense of privilege that sustains their efforts whereas all we have is our voice and our vote. But if we activate our voices and our vote we can combat their hatred for democracy in favor of a privileged plutocracy. Have no doubt that the good we feel inside us is not shared by their smiling faces with a metaphorical knife behind their backs, waiting to attack us. They would promote division through their own hatred to divide and conquer us but will we let them? That is the question of our age and it has yet to be determined.
