"It’s going to be a long haul, but the construction of that parallel infrastructure is underway." And not just media, but also political and economic. Basically, we need to build a parallel nation.

Thank you. What a hard time this is. Reading Chris Murphy’s words and seeing his serious face jolted me this early morning. SO clear we must organize now. They can’t steal our country in front of faces, can they?

Every Substack writer needs to offer concrete action items with every article or comment. Chris Murphy’s words “we need to organize now” just blow away in the wind. Disney has its tentacles everywhere, from ABC to Hulu, to ESPN. Cancel cancel. No more “shoulds” or “need to’s” or “musts”. Sheesh. So many words. “Show up” is not helpful either.

Hoping that the abrupt cancellation of Jimmy Kimmel will jolt some middle-of-the road folks into awareness of the crisis we are facing. And hoping that there will be a huge turnout for the No Kings protests on Oct 18. Massive demonstrations would energize the pro-Democracy movement.
