It’s Not Much, but…

It’s not much, but it’s all we have. Our vote. Our vote has been taken away from us by greed and selfishness, by apathy and laziness. Our vote, however, hopefully, can still swing the power of probability in a positive direction. Our vote. Your vote. My vote. This one concept can change the world if we use it.

Look at the facts; look at the recorded history of Donald Trump. Look at the electoral college, and what is was supposed to be and what it has devolved into. Put down your flags and platitudes and simply see for what it is. Calm your empty hatred and turn off the voice that has been put into your head. Forget god and think about the people around you. Learn! Do not accept. And you, too, have a vote.

And forget your personal interests, and your “most important” politic. Your choice is yours no matter. You had nothing to do with the color of your skin. But always remember that the right and the good is much broader than your personal identity, your personhood. You only matter because a society says that you do. And society is only as good or bad as you make it. And you, too, have a vote.

There is only one choice here. One choice against a corporate conglomerate, a fascist, an oligarchy. The choice may not be the one you want but this is not about you. This is about an idea, a story that we write. This about an ongoing battle against those that would control and take. Be a giver. Give up your high and mighty ethic, your most important identity, your nationalism, your hatred and vote as an individual for a better society.
