Just my opinion, but it seems to me we acted like a democracy. People really cared and came out to vote. Now it’s time to add honesty back into the mix and I’m thinking that may happen. The misinformation has served its purpose. The goal has been achieved. Now I hope we’ll all get on the stick and exercise our people power by paying attention to our real problems.
I wish I had the youth, energy, knowledge, training, expertise, and wherewithal to establish a truth commission, but I’m hoping others will do that. And I hope they’ll start with the truth about who’s arriving at our borders – like stories of families escaping terrible situations at home, hoping to save their kids and themselves. Then I hope we’ll get on a freedom search and get out the information about what banning books really does to damage our kids. And the life-saving issue of abortion choice as it affects not only the hosts of the embryos and fetuses but also the products of forced birthing. And how about the floods and fires related to climate change. Maybe we can take all that stuff and more out the political denial/distortion mix and get busy focusing on real problems.
Maybe the truth distortions have served their purpose and we can flick the switch to the “On” position, on to the search for real problems and real solutions. Maybe we can give up on the idea of letting someone else do it and get busy being aware and active ourselves. But that won’t work if we sit back, relax, and leave the work of destruction to the powers that be.
Just sayin’
