Mike for President- ha ha. You're too smart for that job. But in regards to the "leg to stand on" reference to the basal mind game comeback of "so you are a Hamas supporter" that rational thinkers get thrown at them, I just say it's consequences. The consequences of 76 plus years of brutality, murder, and oppression of trying to keep brown and those different from yourself down and exploitable and that I know the difference between apartheid-Zionism and Judaism. It still has no effect though. But every day I meet many more who know what's coming our way on all fronts. How can we possibly fix this?
Facts are good, rationality is useful, but we have noticed that it only works for some people. Most of us, if not all of us when it comes down to it, are led by other forces. These forces are very deep in the unconscious. If we are to bring about meaningful change, we must address this part of our psyche which lies deep in the core. We must master the language of poetry, of mythology, of music, of primitive art, dance…
Our approach must be holistic as the 17th century shift to empirical science completely disconnected from spiritual and indigenous knowledge is the cause of our failure.

The only option to fix things is a commitment to radical but rational change. That means refusing to tolerate the lies that opportunists spread.
