1. When people wonder how did we get to where we are...

..they only need to look within themselves and then consider the mindset of many, who are the responsible beings, who allowed the Republican to Overtake Congress, after the worst economic and social damage since the great depression of the late 1920's and then look at the war monger that raged across Europe during the reign of Hitler, and its comparison to the wars we created and spread across the Middle East under the leadership of Republicans.

We not allow allowed the Republicans to over take Congress, many became willing and some even driven participants in the Republican overtaking the Presidency, when the vile of Trump was present and visible to the world, before he was seated in the office.

Its the lack of real educational concerns to be learned and to learn more and become and be informed, enough to drive people to stand up and act, to protect democracy. We can see much in the microcosm of this site, with the lack of engagement and engagements that convey such limited of thought, beyond a defense trying to be managed by the usage of sarcasms and humor driven put down... and then to be angry, when its pointed out. But still not driven to read, and resentful of being asked to write and promote value based narrative that promote the Democratic Ideals.

Many do not much more than chase the same drama antic's as does the republican, only in this case, they seek out articles of republican vile, for the primary sake to issue a sarcastically derived comment, but no promotions of ideas, of the democratic Ideals, and absolutely limited concern for the necessity of promoting Democratically Promoting Commentary, to advance Democratic Narratives to the people. " It's more a weakness in conviction and a uncommitted promotion of democratic values.

As MLK said... a great danger is the Moderate White Society, as they can't make up their mind if they are for full equality based Democracy, or if they want to cling to the groomed in ideals that afford them white privilege.

He wrote:

(( "We know through painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed. Frankly, I have yet to engage in a direct action campaign that was “well timed” in the view of those who have not suffered unduly from the disease of segregation. For years now I have heard the word “Wait!” It rings in the ear of every Negro with piercing familiarity. This “Wait” has almost always meant “Never.” We must come to see, with one of our distinguished jurists, that “justice too long delayed is justice denied.”

We have waited for more than 340 years for our constitutional and God given rights. The nations of Asia and Africa are moving with jet-like speed toward gaining political independence, but we still creep at horse and buggy pace toward gaining a cup of coffee at a lunch counter. Perhaps it is easy for those who have never felt the stinging darts of segregation to say, “Wait.” But when you have seen vicious mobs lynch your mothers and fathers at will and drown your sisters and brothers at whim; when you have seen hate filled policemen curse, kick and even kill your black brothers and sisters; when you see the vast majority of your twenty million Negro brothers smothering in an airtight cage of poverty in the midst of an affluent society; when you suddenly find your tongue twisted and your speech stammering as you seek to explain to your six-year-old daughter why she can’t go to the public amusement park that has just been advertised on television, and see tears welling up in her eyes when she is told that Funtown is closed to colored children, and see ominous clouds of inferiority beginning to form in her little mental sky, and see her beginning to distort her personality by developing an unconscious bitterness toward white people; when you have to concoct an answer for a five-year-old son who is asking: “Daddy, why do white people treat colored people so mean?”; when you take a cross county drive and find it necessary to sleep night after night in the uncomfortable corners of your automobile because no motel will accept you; when you are humiliated day in and day out by nagging signs reading “white” and “colored”; when your first name becomes “nigger,” your middle name becomes “boy” (however old you are) and your last name becomes “John,” and your wife and mother are never given the respected title “Mrs.”; when you are harried by day and haunted by night by the fact that you are a Negro, living constantly at tiptoe stance, never quite knowing what to expect next, and are plagued with inner fears and outer resentments; when you are forever fighting a degenerating sense of “nobodiness” — then you will understand why we find it difficult to wait." ))

The Moderate Minded White Masses are a Damaging Danger within the Democratic Party... as they waffle, and become faint in their support with a conviction lacking in the necessary devotion and dedication to the full circle equality, as being the foundation of True and Real Democracy.

In “Letter From a Birmingham Jail,” King offered a scathing critique of “white moderates” unwilling to do the right thing that still resonates today:

He wrote:

"First, I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.” Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection."

Sadly, we saw them fall victim and become subjects of the Republican ideals and supporting of the Republican vile while they passively sat silent, and when in the voting booth, cast their vote for "white supremacist ignorance" and the vote aimed at protecting white privilege.

Therefore, its no great surprise at the level of silence and unwillingness to generate commentary and the avoidance of commentary that address such things and matters followed by the anguish at the very mention of generating commentary and making effort to promote it.

We watched yesterday as the voice of Maxine Water spoke, and the voice of her speaking earlier last week.

We watch on a weekly basis, the normalization of the Trump Authoritarian dictations, that become the make up of selective amnesia infection, as its covered over day by day, until people can't remember what their drama and sarcasm was focused on even a week before.

We see the softening against support for Mueller's Investigation, as well as we watch as the media now patronizes Trumps madness as victories. Still people have nothing more to say, than a one liner sarcastic comment, and they have appeased themselves with such, and the normalization of the acts that dismantle the governance and pervert the courts with conservative agenda, that is driven by Confederate Ideas and Antebellum styled reshaping of a nation... a few puns slung here and there, as it becomes nothing more than a form of acceptance with a glimmer of bicker, as they normalize the acts and changes into their daily lives.

Many are torn between the want to preserve white privilege and hang on to the subliminal idea of white supremacy, yet claim they want the system changing promotion of full circle equality, but cannot relinquish the historical groomed in ways of living within and by a system built to promote and function with white privilege as a societal process for 100's of years.

When President Obama spoke of "Change", when some realized that change included a move away from "white privilege" many turned away, and some backed away, and the result was many did not come out and vote to support a Democratic Congress which would have supported that process of "Change". We watched Democratic Politicians, become silent, and some leaned to the Right away from the Changes that were necessary, and refused to promote the message of Change.

When he was incessantly attacked by Republican at every turn, 'silence" and unwillingness to get out and vote by a mass of the Democratic electorate, became standard policy of conduct. This was further exacerbated by Democratic Congressional members adopting a position of silence, while others sided to appease the Republican system, and still others cowered down in fear that Republican may attack and or expose them for some misdeed in their past.

Its time to face what is of the many truths... that promote the weakness that has caused us to suffer the loss of Congress and the loss of the Office of Presidency, as well as to see us to have loss the Supreme Court, and to see the loss of Governorship's and State Congressional bodies, to Conservative Driven Dominance.

As Democrats we have much to face and in facing the much that there is, to make a determination to be true Democrats, or to continue in the ways that cost us and continue to cost in as Republican Reshapes American into their Confederate based ideals, and Antebellum ideology of social construct.

Among black people, there is no confusion about such things, as we know that the modern day republican, are not the republican who supported Civil Rights in the 1960's and they certainly are not the Republican of Lincoln's stand to free the slaves. Black people know too, that the Democratic Party of today, is not constructed of the ideals of the Southern Democrats of the 1960's... therefore.. there is no wavering of the Black Democrats, who have long fought and stood for Equality and promoted the principles of Equality as being the foundational core of what Promotes True Democracy.
