If we do not pull together on DU, we will fly apart.

263. I'm a flat out gone beyond left liberal populist New Deal Real Deal Democrat.

I have a bleeding heart hippie girl liberal code of ethics, and am not, and never have been, and never will be, compromised by any wealthy private interest.

I recognize the many posters here who share my ethical beliefs to a very great degree, and I trust them, because they are clearly not motivated by anything but a sincere and healthy desire to improve conditions, in every way possible, for the majority of people on the planet, and to protect our mother earth to the greatest degree possible. Basically, we are of one heart and mind in our intents and purposes

If someone, or some group, behaves in a manner that makes me suspect that they have been compromised by some type of wealthy private interest with odious, duplicitous intentions, I'm simply not going to buy into their game. I'm not going to agree with what I know to be wrong.

If a poster's political beliefs and opinions coincide with the duplicitous propaganda, desires, and actions of organizations whose proven primary motivation is clearly to exploit people and the earth for profit, who have supported totally unjustifiable war(s) in the name of conquest and profit, and who will deliberately deceive others for the purpose of gaining profit, I simply cannot accept (outside of genuine ignorance), that their intentions are sincere and genuine.



“The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.” ~ FDR
