voteinorout on Instagram: "Filmmaker #MatthewCooke argues that the political movement built around #DonaldTrump has collapsed under its own weight. In his vie…" Filmmaker #MatthewCooke argues that the political movement built around #DonaldTrump has collapsed under its own weight. In his view, the moment federal power was openly used to justify killing civilians, government stopped operating by public consent. He says legitimacy depends on due process, accountability, and de escalation, and when those disappear, so does trust. Cooke frames this as a breaking point where people stop seeing left versus right and start seeing power versus the public.Cooke also says distraction and fear are tools to protect wealth and authority, not public safety. He points to war threats, mass surveillance, for profit detention, and corporate capture as signs of a system extracting value while demanding obedience. His conclusion is blunt. When authority relies on force instead of consent, people withdraw support, organize locally, and reclaim power through community, labor, and collective action.#MatthewCooke #Authoritarianism #CivilRights #Democracy #Accountability #Protest #Power #Justice—MAGA just lost everything. Pandora’s box is wide open. Everyone can see inside. Now it’s only a matter of time – and each of us, doing our part. Call a friend. Start organizing. Get educated. Let’s put this primitive “predatory phase” of humanity behind us. We know what to do. We know how to feed, house, clothe, and care for all of us on this miraculous floating orb in outer space.

And now it’s Tilly - the regal blue point Tonkinese who looks at George like something that came in stuck to her paw… she doesn’t mean it… but he IS annoying!

Yeah - I am cheering on the asset stranding of that commodity … renewables keep getting cheaper and countries are relentlessly moving toward implementing it across their power provision grids. Those still trading in the dirty stuff will soon find their hunger and greed just a mouthful of ashes.

Right on! Violence belongs in the past…it’s a kind of madness to continue a battle you didn’t start!

Fantastic that ‘Civics’ has once again become socially acceptable! People power will thankfully direct our future - so grateful to live in a country that guarantees our vote by making it compulsory… I will never complain about the compulsory vote - ever! 👏👏👏

Good to see Orban on the ropes - but what does the more popular candidate promise?

Just an incredibly blatant giveaway that he has to have his own name on everything… so ridiculously childish and emotionally stunted! How on earth did he fool so many? Seriously?
