I've been thinking a lot lately about naysayers. Folks who always find a reason to latch on to things that tell them "that can't happen."
This is natural humanity imo, so I'm not knockin' it, but I do wanna talk about it in the context of November 3rd.

Any of y'all that read my stuff know I'm pretty bullish about this election, and Biden's chances. Hell I'm pretty bullish in general when it comes down to it. I ain't into astrology but I'm just sayin' it's odd I'm a Bull.
But I'm a thinker too. Possibly good at it.

Anywho, the election.
I'm absolutely convinced Biden's got it in the bag, maybe over 400 EC votes. Maybe. Still though, imo this chicken is done. Take it out and get down with the victory meal.
To say that the manifestation of trump and the current GOP is every Americans fault is HORRIBLY out of touch.
Not only am I personally offended by it, b/c I've been screaming from the rooftops for 30 years about our broken system and it's ramifications...

Is it logical to tell the black community, who have been systematically devastated...

We used to one community everywhere. All of us. I actually hoped we'd spread that to the world.
But the poltical parties' unending quest to take and keep power, especially the GOP, have destroyed our sense of community.

Where are all the mini democracies we used to depend on daily? Our PTAs, our unions, our (yes) community organizations, our heavily attended town hall meetings?
We no longer listen to each other and instead scream at each other from afar, then wonder how we got here.

For millennia the only thing that has enabled the tasty pink packages that our bodies truly are to survive has been numbers against predators and bad humans. We're inherently social beings for a reason...
