Today’s Tarot: Clarity (Q&A)
https://youtu.be/A7InMa2oCjQ?si=tKeE68AJXtOKi3v1
Q: What do we most need to know right now in the United States following Lindsey Graham’s death and conjecture about Mitch McConnell’s.
I drew this card with this question in mind, right after seeing a social media post from someone who I typically has good points and real food for thought. This may well be the first time I’ve disagreed with him.
But no, this isn’t a time for tut-tutting about “speaking ill of the dead” from either side of the political divide. Graham was not a good person who, because of his political power, inflicted real harm on real people and contributed much to the rise of fascism and white christian nationalism in America today.
I’m sorry for the loss of any kind person who feels his – or their – passing. But at the same time it is fair to think they are lying in the bed they made during their lifetime.
The social media person clucked something on the order “saying these things says more about you as a person than it does about them.
Not this time.
If making fun of a powerful bad man says something about the person saying it….what does a powerful man’s silence about the death of school girls at the hands of unnecessary war, the death of women at the hands of politically and religiously motivated abortion bans, the death of schoolchildren at the hands of our lack of gun control….and on and on and on. What does silence about these dead say about THEM? I’d rather people make merciless fun of the politicians who caused harm than remain silent in the face of the harm they caused.
It’s more important to be kind to everyone living than to worry about what is said about the dead.
Laughter is good medicine. Public figures who caused real harm aren’t going to be any less dead if we only say nice things about them after they’ve been rendered harmless by the inevitable. Momento Mori.
In the noise of current events, the Ace of swords reminds us to cut to the chase, get to the point, simplify. Tune out the static and get right down to what really matters. In the end, kindness is the only measure of what that is.

Insult the Pope then invoke God⁉️👇🤔
#tRump blasts 'godless' Democrats in incendiary speech to evangelicals
"Trump accused Democratic left of being "hardcore, godless communists" in a #divisive, politicized speech Fri full of #falsehoods abt his perceived foes as he addressed evangelicals at #rightwing #Christian conference🤥.. Despite a career mired in legal & ethical #scandals (fr alleged #affairs to #felony) twice-divorced Trump remains popular w the #evangelical right"🤦♂️

#Evangelicals, of course, talk fluently about evil, but (empirically speaking) they have become the most evil religious group in America. One goal of any morally serious religion must be to oppose the evil of Christo-fascism.
Happy Passion Friday to all who oppose Christo-fascism!
And a big FUCK YOU to all Christo-fascists out there: if you don't repent of that evil, the world will be a better place because of your death.
