love is foundational

I don't think we live in a functioning democracy. Government are not doing what the majority want. It's time Rogers closing speech at his trial got a wider sharing. It's time he is released and his conviction is overturned. I haven't seen any criticism of his arguement after 6 months of revisiting it.

Script full of deepities, not what we need at this time. Try again.

Entrenched power will give up nothing voluntarily.

Antonio Demasio covered the interdependence of the rational and emotional mind in his book, Descartes' Error.

The system seeks to sow lies, division, competition and hate rather than truth, unity, cooperation and love.

Those who bend the la must be held to account. When judges refuse to allow climate change as a motivation or defence, or impose punitive sentences, or when the Metropolitan Police impose an injunction on protest on all of London as in October 2019, thrive 10 or 20 tonnes of possessions from protesters, or people are wrongfully arrested or falsely imprisoned those actors must be held accountable. It would take another subgroup of people to take up this task but many other organisations do so at least in part. Any compensation should be recycled into campaigns so the system pays for it. The idea that the legal and power system pays for campaigns, and why, is terrible optics for the system.

Thanks, Roger! Our journeys have been different in space, time and substance - while we both observe modernity starving itself into a slow oblivion, feeding off its own endless contradictions. Yes, it’s a cultural revolution, not in the sense most imagine right now - rather emergent from change as a prime mover. Change itself, as Hegel maybe ironically inspired Marx (+ many) to transcend into material analysis. That was wise for the time, as material-economic asymmetry seemed basal for societal growth in an early industrialized realism. Also pertinent that Haeckel coined *ecology* (1866) in a very inspired manner. The term got transhistorically stolen, towards the reductive understanding of «some interconnected heap of nature» outside of us - far away, something separate. Darwin’s beauty was transgressed - by economic power, not science - into Social-Darwinism. Maybe the worst single outcome of modern science abuse…? I surely don’t know how to «bridge» insights into something tangible - why Roger is right. That bridge is spiritual, connecting a dying culture into one emerging. When facts die - feelings awaken. A bridge to cross, once it’s real enough…😊

Reaching people at a local level is vital, however the science and physics says we are out of time. The video by Jerry Kroth shows strongly (Six Years To Climate Catastrophe) that we have six years at best for radical correction. There will be breakdown and the power elites are not going to change, but also are caught up in their own demise due to global heating and economic impact bearing down. We create cells and community resilience, and also show a vision for a better existence (ideology) that works for all and the planet. This is another area where the left is making a big mistake, as well as XR not taking the struggle directly to political parties and the political process, including defining a country's constitution. We now have entered a transition period that in effect is an evolutionary process where some groups will come through, but the exploiters of this world and mighty powerful corporations wont shift until their systems breakdown, which is now happening. Disrupting the public is not a good idea who are facing enormous economic and weather disruption. The other thing is that XR does not work with other organizations except for a sympathy vote. To talk about a door knocking campaign is not a practical reality and which countries? There is sympathy and no unity with other organizations. We have to admit publicaly we have lost the battle and help communities to prepare for resilience and adaptation as much as possible. This is the big message. Just have a look at the enormous resources and loss of life going into war right now by the various power elites. This is the horrible reality but we also convey a message of what is possible. The power elite are also living on borrowed time. One fortunate piece of news is that Trump is starting a tariff war with China and others, and this will undermine the foundations of capitalism in general, which is happening anyway. A plethora of pleading groups has not changed the fundamental problem of 'Climate Change' and other converging crisis.

Violence is in the DNA of American culture. It's the American identity. A malignancy.

At this point, regardless of what we do now, we are going functionally extinct. It’s too late Roger.

Great stuff to take onboard.. for duration of listing to the history of the Freedom Riders.💦🌲🤠

If everyone was like you, the climate and nature emergency would be dealt with and young people would have a future.

Two sock puppets exoressing faux anger at their own opinions and fixated on a fictitious ambulance is not news.

Merry Christmas Roger. Hope you're bearing up well as it seems. Trying times indeed. What you do here makes a future for you.

Yep, when its my turn, I WILL ALSO SPEAK TRUTH TO POWER! 🙏🏻✊🧡🌍🌎🌏

You've got balls, Roger. Way ahead of your time, though surely realisation must be growing out there in TV consumerland due to your efforts....? Good Man. Chin up mate...

Yus - because conservatives are only interested in values in the service of conserving existing hierarchies Two parts : (1) The rich are interested on conserving hierarchy based on wealth.... and when they have hoarded so much that the spending power of ordinary people starts to collapse, they form an alliance with that part of society (2) that wants to conserve hierarchy based on ethnicity and gender. "The temporary alliance of the elite and the mob", as someone somewhere else once described it. If you haven't already, it might be worth having a talk with David Snowden... he has taken the citizens-engagement thing to very advanced levels, as well as (accidentally I suspect) creating something that is inline with the anarchist principles that Sophie Scott Brown talks about (mass parallel experiments with a sense of direction rather than gameable goals). A coherent theory of change, underwritten by a coherent moral philosophy that goes down to the metal - and he is attempting to scale globally - and I think he actually has the capability and clout to do that. He did some work for the NZ govt a year or so ago. The diversity of his case-studies is very impressive.

Thanks

Progress is never made without struggle.

Great news. I hope it goes well.

Wise words

THE EMOTIONAL DARK AGES As a culture we are just now emerging from the emotional dark ages. We are emerging from a time when feelings were to be performed (or suppressed) by rote, without individual attention, style, uniqueness, without the freedom to explore that dimension, that window, as a way of knowing the universe. And the same is true for imagery. The imagery that has been allowed has been a standard imagery, an imagery having to do with the origins of one's nation or one's family, and with one's relationship to the universe, to God. Not a freedom to explore one's own imagery, as it presents itself, as one discovers it to be, uniquely individual, but an imagery that was standardized and approved,an imagery that was dictated and dominated by thinking and control. Let us hope that the opening of the windows of imagery and feeling will be as fruitful and as freeing of our natural humanness as opening the window of thinking was for our natural creativity and invention. In fact it will probably be more so, because it will also entail our coming into balance, where our four windows [thinking, sensing, feeling, deep imagery] will all be open,and so our center will be true, and we, for the first time as a living organism, will enter into our true fullness and aliveness. - Eligio Stephen Gallegos PhD, Animals of the Four Windows: Integrating Thinking, Sensing, Feeling and Imagery

At this time we need to be active where we can be most effective agents for change. While this may include going on the streets, at the present time this does not seem effective strategy for all. It is important to also have people aware of the issue and not in prison to effect the changes that activism lays the path for. If everyone is banged up, no change will happen. Let's not make enemies where fellowship is needed.

Exactly i despise 2:10 to no do anything

Fate will determine? Madre mia.

1:27 "we" do? I beg to differ, Roger. Anyone promoting that is not "on the left".

I have some ideas. Stand by

Yep, we HAVE to do EVERYTHING WE POSSIBLY CAN FOR OUR CHILDREN'S FUTURE!.. Simple😢... ✊🧡🌍🌎🌏

I began geoengineering when I noticed by academic paper being ignored. So I write geoengineering efforts into near future speculations on what to expect. From humans, being what they are. climaterealityseries.wordpress.com/

Replenish the earth.

Sounds like the truth to me. Thanks for the straightforward approach to honesty, Roger. As ever, keep sane in there...

.....inspired and impressed self reflection as a tool for change, thanks again 🌱

Do we know when the result of the appeal might be expected?

Lollipop 🍭 for Roger 😊.

powerful

Yes lets get on and get on with it!♡
