I've taken the day to reflect and refocus what will be my highest focus in the years to come, and as this blog is called Forward to Happiness, it must have a political theme after recent results. I saw many online today claiming "America won"... and I tried with futility to enlighten why that was a false statement... so that is a point of education that must be intertwined, as well.
What is America? Is it the buildings in D.C.? No.. from our founding, it was stated clearly that America is "we the people"... and that people is divided, and almost half of that people lost, last night. It's not like over half will have "won".. either, as almost half of California votes have to be fully counted as well as other Kamala areas, so likely he will have failed to reach 50 percent of the vote for the 3rd time. But, that's really irrelevant, anyway. What is America? We the people doesn't mean the MOST of the people. It means ALL of the people.. every single minority group IS America, something the right fails to understand. The things that are important to them are AMERICAN interests.. to say otherwise and to push a singular point of view on others is the definition of fascism... and push they do. Whether they choose to tell people how they can dress or makeup they are allowed to wear or who they can love or what god they must worship or whether they are ALLOWED to choose a vaccine for their own bodies... it is strikes against freedom.
And, I'm a big believer in freedom. I always have been. That has caused me to oppose one political party or another at various times with a defense of personal choices, and that defense is now directed almost entirely at the group that came into power on the message of removing choices, and we are seeing that taking place by that political party in states, already. This week, the state where I am defined gender by law. Get that? You are not even allowed to CHOOSE FOR YOURSELF what pronoun you'd pick, even though making that choice does not harm anyone else for that decision. The state has also recently mandated that EVERY teacher MUST teach from the Bible in their classes... even if that class is Math and the teacher happens to be athiest or Jewish or Hindu. I have opposed that as it took place, as well. Shortly, if Trump is to be believed, he will remove LGBTQ people from the miliary, as he campaigned to do in ads ran on X. He has also said healthcare will be done by RFK, which has said he wants a nationwide abortion ban, said he wants to ban people from choosing vaccines for their own bodies, and has said he wants to remove floride from water and that he distrusts all medicines made by big pharma as being unsafe... which will lead to long wait times for cures, while people DIE because they won't be given a choice to take what they want to fight their illness.
We are just beginning a VERY fun period, in fact. Kamala was blamed for every rise in prices, even if those was done by greedy corporate people posting record profits. Guess what... those greedy corporations won't be choosing LESS profits in the future, so Trump will be to blame for every price increase in the next 4 years. I truly hope that Kamala stays in the fight as the lead candidate, so she can say the same things about his economy and government that he said about hers. She's still young, and he LITERALLY cannot run, again.
So, don't give up hope. Conservatives are LITERALLY dying off.. being an elderly population.. all the younger ones voted for Kamala. Educated people voted for Kamala. Women voted for Kamala. Black men voted for Kamala. Hispanic women voted for Kamala... and all of these at higher levels than prior elections. Change is coming, even if Republicans try to deport everyone that is dissimilar to them, and it will happen, eventually. I am dedicating my blog and media to the defense of those whose freedoms are targeted and to ensuring that every broken campaign promise and economic failure and fascist action is noted of the GOP leadership and every blatant hypocrisy of his supporters.. such as claiming a loving God at Christmas even as they cut poverty food aid and hate migrants like Mary and homeless like Jesus.. is cited, as well. I will make the proud uncomfortable and comfort the afflicted, and I won't give a SHT if the religious declare that .... unChristian.
