I read your article this afternoon, and I’m very intrigued by the concept of “reactionary centrism, which I’ve never heard identified in that way.”
Yesterday I published a Substack post entitled “After the March, What Now” because I know many people who are willing to march, which is great, and then just wait for the next March. I do not believe that’s enough to get us where we need to go. We just need to go much further.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I appreciate your sentiments on this, and like you, I’m very happy that the March happened. We just need to go much further. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
We need a REDEEMED GOVERNMENT, to lead the people INTO redemptive action. However, I also believe it was CORRUPT PEOPLE ELECTING CORRUPT OFFICIALS. It seems like a paradox, but it is not. It is the rational outcome, from an irrational MINORITY which has the MAJORITY of power (the extra wealthy, and the EPSTEIN class).
This has been progressing for years and years. There has been an absolute "hornet up the ass" of the FBI, and the federal government since Martin Luther King Jr., and Malcom X. But, the problem continues: the rich get richer, and the marginalized get "DEPORTED". NOW, that is what I see happening!!!
Excellent perspective, and kudos for the shout out to Dr. Patton. I love her posts and I admire her courage. I wish I could absorb some of the hate-mail you and she are getting.
Well put! I am what you might call an "old white woman." I have noticed that since the oppression has reached people of my melanin content, the entire issue has become more serious to them. But this kind of sickness has lived in American society since its founding.
Their proposed next step might be referred to as "to regain power and fix what's wrong, we need to underbus the needs of Black people, Native people, Brown people, and immigrants." (Credit to Heather Cox Richardson with the term "underbus.") I hear this comment from well-meaning friends and acquaintances who have not pondered what they're really implying. This crap has been happening for ages, and it has only stuck us further into fascist quicksand. No person or community should ever again be thrown under the bus - it only deepens our collective sickness as we are separated from values of compassion and care.
