Was watching another RUclipsr talking about oligarchies over the millennia and how they tend to get toppled when they appear to be at their strongest but are in fact very brittle. That gives me hope that we can fight together and win a better world. The video is Why Oligarchy Falls (And How to Speed It Up) over at Legendary Lore.
Your video about Erica Chenoweth research showing the power of only 3.5% of population resisting nonviolently, has been extremely hopeful for me. Thank you so much for the information that you share!!!
I’m so sorry you’re getting punched in the gut with a sudden illness and loss of your precious baby girl. Hugs to you and your family, and also to her brother ❤️🩹
In my youth I often asked my grandparents and parents how they could let the rise of fascism happen. Now I am the old person who has seen it since the 2000 election and partially since 1980. I hope young people will ask me how it could’ve happened here so that I can answer.
I'm with you. I've been through it with the death of parent, the death of my dog of 17 years and then lost my job. The cheeto getting into office is too much. I'm exhausted, I'm burned out.
😢 💜 To be able to realize, even for a few seconds at a time, a space of stillness, where one knows . . . that just for this moment, here, everything is safe. Then for that second, to empty ones mind of as much thought as possible, and just breath, in the stillness, of that moment. 💜
I feel that if we are going to reclaim democracy it has to start with our local governments and build a grass roots strength of participation and new leaders that can ascend with a much stronger civic foundation than now exists. I feel that we need to build that locally strong movement around different values than we are currently governed by, and the Permaculture ethics of Earth care, People care and Fair share are a good start.
In addition to all the great things you said in this video I want to remind everyone how important physical media is. Look how fast we were blocked from all the knowledge on an app. It was so easy to use short form video content to learn how to do things. I learned new crochet techniques, fixed my plumbing, safely exterminated a small insect issue, etc. This was a reminder to search out information in books and continue to collect music I enjoy in a physical format. It’s a lot harder for the government to come into your house and burn your books. Keep a lookout at second hand stores and build a home library. Also, don’t forget about your local library!
Just a suggestion, from someone who found out the hard way. As your Athena declines, allow her brother to see/be with her. Also, allow him full access to her body after, to see& say goodbye. It will allow him to know why she is gone& perhaps not grieve himself to death.❤
THIS is so important for those remaining after a beloved pet has left us! Death is a natural part of life, and dogs are so much more understanding when they’re allowed to process the loss
I’m a TikTok refugee. I knew it was coming, but it’s still a level of shock I’m feeling. Along with the suffocated feeling. So glad we’re all here. I have hope, but it’s pretty shaky. 🖤
This is what I HATE about getting pets: as much as love and joy that they bring into my life, you know the road is inevitably going to end in heartbreak (despite being gone for 15+ years now, I STILL GET EMOTIONAL over losing my sweet girl Jazzy who slept at the foot of my bed from when I was 5 years old until I was almost 25 years old). But that’s life, I guess. Anyway, sending love to your furry angels. ❤️🙏
Yes there is much chaos pushing us to necessary change. Together, in community, we can resist the oppression. Other apps or means to have community will result. You are doing a great service sharing your views. Sending you much support
Me too. “Aggressive” MS. I’m frequently bed bound and as I told my s/o last night, my TikTok was not only my friend, it was frequently my lifeline when I have felt worse than alone in this fight. 💔
I’m so sorry for your dog. I lost the special one for me too some years ago and it was more painful than loosing close humans. So I know what you’re feeling. It will hurt for some time 🫶🏻
I'm sorry Dove Lewis wasn't able to help your pup. 😢 But you still have community here on yt and with us in Portland. Hoping it only grows stronger from here.
I am so sorry to hear about your dog. I understand what it is to lose "that one" dog. It's so hard. And yes, with all the other things going on. I am having a hard time this weekend too. Sending blessings to you and your family. I'll miss seeing you.
Getting tears in my eyes 🥹💔❤️🩹 Thank you so much for speaking encouragement from your heart, though it is breaking. You inspire me to focus on the small things I know I can do. Thank you thank you ✨💛✨
I’ve long wanted to support you on Patreon. Your anticonsumer rants before Christmas helped inspire me to make major changes to what I do with my money, and I can now afford to do so. Hope it helps.
I’m so sorry about Athena-I grew up w black standard poodles, and they are like no other dogs. As an American living outside of the US, I am finding this moment brutally difficult, not least because I can’t do the things I would be doing if I were still there, most particularly any kind of protest. So thank you for fighting so hard-you’re speaking for a lof of people who can’t be there. 🙏🏽♥️🌻
I agree. I enjoy protests, the unity. I feel badly for your loss on a beloved pet. We DID HAVE a govt that was FOR The People when FDR was president. Yes, there was STILL racism, true, but we know what democracy felt like for a time. And you're right, we need to make greedy rich go to the devil 😈
Look back to the civil rights movement that organised the millions march with no social media. It can be done but we have to find and connect networks of people offline and most of us have little idea where to start. So although I'm not in the US I'm looking for opportunities to find groups I can be part of as a starting point.
Thank you for putting it perfectly, simply, as usual. For those like me, not personally acquainted with folk who see things as they are as you do (and I do) losing your voice will suck bad. I already see you via youtube shorts so are you REALLY going away? Hate that our powers that be are so captured they choose with the force of law which oligarchs get to benefit from our atomization. Just a taster of things to come...
If it's any consolation, Pluto just moved into Aquarius. It hasn't been there since 1778 - 1798. It's time for a non-violent revolution. If you have issues with Astrology, I don't need to know. Just throwing out some hope.
I don't think it is just a few men who are the cause of all this. Each of us should look at how we are complicit in perpetuating the ways of thinking and treating others espoused by the few men at the top.
I'm so SO very sorry. They ruled DACA unconstitutional??? And I'm in Chicago, at a school that is over 75% Latine...and I'm SO concerned for my students, their families, our school's communities, and great friends outside of this school. It's terrifying. Your hopeful words? Thank you.
The ruling will only apply to Texas for now. I'm sorry I didn't realize more folks hadn't heard of the ruling I should have been more specific. I think it sets precedence for expanding across to the rest of the country.
@@ParkrosePermaculture, thank you for specifying. I'm so worried about a number of my former students who have Dreamer status. I'm scared about the announced-in-the-news raid on Chicago scheduled for Tuesday and then...ongoing. And, as a German and English teacher who has taught the history of 1933-1945 MANY times? I'm so frightened. I really appreciate your voice. Thank you.
So sorry about your precious dog. I fully understand your grief. But what I don't understand is why you see Trump as any worse than Biden/Harris. Much of what burdens and angers you occurred under the Dem's watch, did it not? Trump might even turn out to be a bit of surprise, like in this Gaza ceasefire he apparently forced in order to end Israel's AND Biden's genocide.
I would love to see you ingnolige that both political sides are equally bad because they are and that is not only men all people who have a toxic mentality it's, not only men it's all out of touch but human being's unbalanced masculine people its nothing to do with a man, a woman can also be like that if you don't have you your balance easily if your masculine side dominates this creates this kind of state of the world and trust me it's the same in Europe but out of different reasons In Europe, it's because of incompetence and in the USA it's because of lack of balance in the form of masculine feminine balance... by the way I don't belive co_ _d-19 is such danger anymore is less infecus, yesit'ss still out ther but I whold bett aht it wholdent kill a normal healthy person because these things mutate ad if humans whole eat like humans in prehistory did these things wholdent happen you whold have a natural immunity escily if you tae adptogenic herbs and mushrums exercise a lot go out in the sulgt into nature and so on meditate do yoga qi-gong and so on
May I respectfully suggest David Pakman's interview with Andrea Chalupa on how to resist trump's authoritarianism. It is the most compassionate, caring, inspiring interview I have seen about how to get through the next four years. Joining like-minded people was one of her ideas. Good for you. I never watched TikTok but understand how its ban has affected so many. Sorry for America from Australia. I am watching my daughter suffering from a rare ovarian cancer. We face homelessness in four weeks. It's hard to stay positive. Blessings.🩵
The pain of losing companions is not to be underestimated. I’m baffled by the number of Americans who just don’t seem to realize that they are handing their rights off. (((hugs)))

So sorry. Here from TikTok and glad to be able to keep the “conversation” going. My youngest is also George. It’s heavy. And we continue on.
I’m so sorry about your dog. Please take care of you and your family. It’s so hard.
In my youth I often asked my grandparents and parents how they could let the rise of fascism happen. Now I am the old person who has seen it since the 2000 election and partially since 1980. I hope young people will ask me how it could’ve happened here so that I can answer.
Just curious, did your grandparents answer your question?
Yes. Thank you for going to the rally
Also your sweet pup! I didn't know that she was having issues. HUGS HUGS HUGS
I'm with you. I've been through it with the death of parent, the death of my dog of 17 years and then lost my job. The cheeto getting into office is too much. I'm exhausted, I'm burned out.

Thank you for going to the March. Your videos reflect life.
TikTok is gone for me. I’m so used to watching it at night it’s been such a part of my routine
I am so sorry to hear about your.dog. Thoughts and prayers for you and your family. I know how hard that is...
Never mind my previous comment, I found you on blusky!❤
I’m so sorry to hear about Athena 💔 I lost one of my love bugs in November shortly after the election and it took me out.
I'm so sorry you're going through so much. We're in it together. That is all we have.
Thank you for verbalizing the fear we carry.
Im glad you have a RUclips at least
Yeah... Again.... I'm fucked in this new regime. I'm a disabled female that can not reproduce. ... It will get harder before it gets better.
I feel you 😢💔
Me too. “Aggressive” MS. I’m frequently bed bound and as I told my s/o last night, my TikTok was not only my friend, it was frequently my lifeline when I have felt worse than alone in this fight. 💔
It is a very scary time indeed.
I’m so sorry about your doggies. I have sibling girls and they are a handful
Glad to see you here. Mourning the loss of TT community... you're right it was our third place for many ND.
I’m so sorry for your dog. I lost the special one for me too some years ago and it was more painful than loosing close humans. So I know what you’re feeling. It will hurt for some time 🫶🏻

😭SORRY!! I know what you are going through..... wish I could make it better. Hang on! We will get through all this together!
Very sorry about your pup. I lost one of mine last year and it still hurts. ❤
So sorry, 💔💔💔

I followed you over! Sad day😢 You are so eloquently speaking what is in my head.
Thank you for being you!❤
Here from TikTok - we go on. Thank you ❤
Thank you for sharing. I feel the same.
Please keep going. There are not many of you out there and we need voices like yours more than ever.
Love you, we are soul buddies lady! Never been on TT, just on YT. from Bay Area.
Love those earrings. I had not even heard of this march, though I was flying all day. Was it promoted on Tik Tok only?
It was promoted by Ben n Jerry's ice cream! They're real ones. I heard about it on TikTok, personally.
@@ParkrosePermaculturealso promoted by Women’s March
I’m sorry to hear about your fur baby struggles 💜💔💜
Thank you for this. It was needed more than you know. Listened on my iPad while working around the house. Sending good thoughts for your fur babies.
Im so sorry about your puppers💔
❤❤❤
Thats the. Plan, take our freedom of speech 😢
You're great! I really love your posts. I'm so sorry to hear about your dog. Keep up the good work in whatever way you can.
