Americans are a bunch of temporarily embarrassed millionaires, conditioned to believe that the US is the land of opportunity where anyone can strike it rich... Liberals, conservatives, democrats, republicans--all seem to believe it...

Is there a true progressive movement here in the United States? Is the progressive movement dead or was it just co-opted by wealthy, privileged "limousine liberals" who might care about saving the trees, the whales, and maybe even 'black lives matter' (as long as it's in vogue), but they don't care about human life and civil liberties in general. From their comfortable mansions, they pontificate on women's rights, sexism, racism, climate change, etc. However, these same "progressives" seem to be okay with the government telling them to wash their hands, wear a mask, and take a mandatory vaccine. So much for the right to control one's own body... (Or maybe they think their wealth and privilege will exempt them from an enforced vaccination?)

They claim to be anti-establishment, but can people who are living comfortably and who benefit from this establishment really be anti-establishment? Why aren't there very many people of color, poor people or homeless people involved in the "progressive" movement for social change? Why does the so-called progressive movement seem to increasingly resemble the establishment--wealthy, privileged white men who devalue women and minorities while holding up their BLM signs to fit in with the current trend.

The movement for positive social change has been hijacked! Women, minorities, people of color, immigrants, poor people, homeless people: we all need to come together, despite our differences, and speak out!

They want us to think that our opinions don't matter, that if you're not a "scientist" or some other authority figure, that you don't know anything...

Listen, people! One of our greatest presidents, Abraham Lincoln, was self-taught. His family was poor. In his day, a poor person (had to be a white man) could become president! 

We've been conditioned to listen to "experts." We are the experts on our own health. People, take back your power!
