  1. A quotation from Thomas Jefferson

    We hold these truths to be sacred & undeniable; that all men are created equal & independant, that from that equal creation they derive rights inherent & inalienable, among which are the preservation of life, & liberty, & the pursuit of happiness; that to secure these ends, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government shall become destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, & to institute new government, laying it’s foundation on such principles & organising it’s powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety & happiness.

    Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826) American political philosopher, polymath, statesman, US President (1801-09)
    Document (1776-06), “Declaration of Independence” (original rough draft)

    Let's just make it a rule because self government and democracy.

    No one is responsible FOR something, unless they are responsible TO someone.

    Billionairism is a cancer murdering human society. Just as rich always has, but now its metastasizing billionairism.

    Nothing to buy in their price range except governments.

  14. A quotation from Lincoln

    Near eighty years ago we began by declaring that all men are created equal; but now from that beginning we have run down to the other declaration, that for some men to enslave others is a “sacred right of self-government.” These principles can not stand together. They are as opposite as God and mammon; and whoever holds to the one, must despise the other.

    Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) American lawyer, politician, US President (1861-65)
    Speech (1854-10-16), “In Reply to Senator Douglas,” Peoria, Illinois

  18. A quotation from Lincoln

    What I do say is that no man is good enough to govern another man without that other’s consent. I say this is the leading principle, the sheet-anchor of American republicanism. […] According to our ancient faith, the just powers of governments are derived from the consent of the governed. Now the relation of master and slave is pro tanto a total violation of this principle. The master not only governs the slave without his consent, but he governs him by a set of rules altogether different from those which he prescribes for himself. Allow all the governed an equal voice in the government, and that, and that only, is self-government.

  23. Before the Trump Coup exposed billionaire plans for world fascism, Australian Labour was supposed to lose this election.

    Trump and Elon have awakened rhe world.

    As Lincoln said defeating the slavers, government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

    Shall not Perish.

    They are not done counting, this is a tidal wave, an electoral tsunami.

    Billionaires are buying hate propaganda to eliminate democracy because we are on the verge of democracy everywhere. I could care less about the excuses.

    Similarly, the is no such thing as race, but there sure is a lot racism being used to create hate.

  31. "Autonomy" means something different in Spain (having certain powers) than in #Slovakia (a region has a plan for its future independence)

    This is due to Slovakia's history

    (Removed, see next post:"The country itself became autonomous before parting ways with Czechia")

    Why is this relevant? #Hungarians living in Southern Slovakia would like "autonomy" over the territories where they are a majority

    But they can't say "#autonomy", so they use the word "self-government" instead

    Organize

    Make lists of allies, friends and people needing allies, needing info, needing protection. Make meetings, make time.

    The top best political film for organizing, understanding SELF GOVERNMENT is the biopik _MILK_. TOP best almost only political film, the fact that its lgbt is great, but not the point.

    Self government, mutual respect are built. BUILT, need as much maintanance as your home. More. Its where we live.

    'Milk' is online
