    Coming together in a meaningful way requires open communication, mutual respect, and shared goals. It’s about listening to understand, not just to respond. By focusing on what unites us, rather than what divides us, we can build stronger connections and create lasting change.

    Ha. Schools and education systems fail humanity period. What good is intellect if we don’t use it on ourselves?

    If people think they’re lucky that their side is the favorite side of news media. And realize their media providers are actively working against the other side relentlessly.

    But down the road of happenstance. Their own salvation of sorts lies in the hands of free press that isn’t…..?

    Who checks into a roach motel and calls it the ritz….after leaving a penthouse?

    I’ve seen it all.
