Dear Friends who are AI empowered (Actually Intelligent),

As you may partially know:

- My IA (#Intelligence Activity) is limited at the best. But I am still #sentient. Just about
- In the intelligence #community (Private, State Spin-sawed/sponsored and #independents) I am what is known as 'A perdaughter/pear-sun of no interest'
- As they say in the last vestiges of the first rich Reich, Vatican City, 'follow the monied'

Anyway enough about you. What about a better world for our childlings?

BREAKING: In a Stunning Admission, Mike Johnson just told reporters that he plans to cut both Medicare & Medicaid after the midterm elections We can STOP THIS BY ELECTING Gary Crockett for United States Senate AND Never Vote Republican #Louisiana #NoParty #democrats #independents #vote #healthcare
Independent voters were allowed to vote in an "open primary" for the first time in New Mexico and by the look of the margins from winners within the Democratic Primary, it appears that #Independents joined #Democrats in multiple decisive state party victories as a united front.
Bravo 👏

Forming a party wouldn’t make independents less independent. It would strengthen a centrist bloc

A party structure could help independents better work together on common ground, while retaining the very thing that made them attractive in the first place

It’s not that hard. I don’t support anything right of centre for one because there lies the path of #authoritarianism and more of the shitful, moribund #neoliberalism that I could ever suffer in what little time I have left. I also do not wish to foister more (or worse) of the same crap we’ve had for the last 40 years on future generations.

For me, alternatives are found in small L liberal #Independents who are committed to the community they live in and, of course, the #Greens above all else. If there is a lack of these in your electorate’s candidates at the next election, you’ve got two choices. Get involved and make it happen (preferred option) or move to an electorate where there are such candidates. Putting up with the major parties is no choice at all IMO.
