  1. Americans are having to hide receiving basic healthcare like vaccines (not to mention abortions.) This sounds like the underground railroad that used to run when slavery was legal to help people escape. Unbelievable. #giftArticle #populism

    * The role of loss within society
    Andreas Reckwitz 's book 'Loss, A Modern Predicament, The first comprehensive study of the role of loss within society", 2025 explains loss not only from a psychological perspective, but also from a sociological one.

    "Loss has come to occupy a central position in late modernity – whether in the consequences of climate change or the entrenchment of negative expectations about the future, the ‘losers’ of post-industrial modernisation or the collective processing of ‘historical wounds’ and of who is acknowledged as the victims and perpetrators of these crimes, in a heightened psychological awareness of vulnerability, in political populism, a nostalgia for things past, or programmes of resilience."

    "Loss is the bread and butter of populism." >>

    The government must be the trustee for the little man because no one else will be. The powerful can usually help themselves — and frequently do.

    Speech (1955-10-29), “The Crisis in Agriculture,” Democratic Rally, Duluth, Minnesota
