America’s in deep trouble: Congress hijacked by billionaires while Fox & social media sow hate & division for profit. Toxic masculinity drives hate crimes, murders, and air rage…
The only "agency" Trumplican seditious conspiRACISTS and terrorists should have, including the murderous ringleaders on Wall Street, in Congress (both state and federal), and their disgraced ex-strongman in Mar-a-Lago, is a swat team of law enforcement agents pounding on their doors at 6 am, before coffee, when the fancy "suits" are still in their underwear. This huge herd of wingnut perps will clog our for-profit courts and jails, so the prosecutors and Judges will have to clear the huge pile of caseloads normally afflicting poor people and minorities.
Disempowerment of Americans Deepens Over Recent Decades
Those Protecting Their Power, Oligarchs, Their Media and Their Lackeys, GQP (GOP+QAnon), Use Demagoguery, Misogyny, Racism, and Economic Reaganism to Disempower All Opponents.
Some white men feel disempowered when POC’s rights are protected or strengthened, but it’s not a zero-sum game.
Some white men feel disempowered when women’s rights are protected or strengthened, but it’s not a zero-sum game.
White men who feel disempowered resort to fists and guns to reclaim their power (Freedom).
Women feel disempowered when their abuse is blamed on them or the abuser is made the victim and never punished.
POC feel disempowered when their abuse is blamed on them or the abuser is granted “qualified immunity” and never punished.
Workers feel disempowered when their unions are busted, their jobs are moved to other countries, their benefits are reduced, or they are forced to work for slave wages.
Students feel disempowered when their life’s choices (freedom) are restricted by the greed-inflicted burden of their student loans.
Voters feel disempowered when their right to vote is restricted while election fraud is legalized by state legislatures.
Democratic legislators feel disempowered when their constituent empowering legislation is blocked by a right-wing authoritarian minority.
Consumers feel disempowered when they are forced to comply with binding arbitration over product inflicted harm.
All Democrats need to do whatever it takes to equally protect and empower all citizens.
Remington was a beginning, and I hope people will take time to read the article in cleantechnica.com called "Texas Supreme Court Tells Exxon To Go Pound Sand"-2/21/22. Stopping the fossil fuel industry from killing everything and influencing politics is a great place to begin to recover the part of our agency we have lost to them.

Thumbs up. It is not one facet, but one of a few.
Brilliant insight...
