perhaps it's time for focus on political action in each of the states now.

this is how they brought the current results about, so perhaps it can be turned around.

@homebird

one must wonder about him🤔

@NiveusLepus

no doubt 👀 they're watching.

@catlynne333

i'm tired of seeing the abyss look back. 😤

@cassandra17lina

yes, i am jealous of them today

@corlin

amen🙏🏻

@Armchaircouch

yes, time to turn away from the abyss and look up again to what unites and enlivens us.

@Museek

this is deeply disturbing, yes. disillusionment darkens the world.

but it will make the light of those who persevere more precious and increase our solidarity.

"Therefore let us lie in wait for the righteous;
because … he upbraideth us with our offending the law,
and objecteth to our infamy.…

He professeth to have the knowledge of God:
and he calleth himself the child of the Lord.

He was made to reprove our thoughts."

Not from mere thoughtfulness and unconsciousness, but from a deeper motive,

the Wisdom of Solomon here touches on the sore spot.

the Wisdom of Solomon internalized Job's message. too bad its pearls are ignored and trampled.

"The unrighteous and the ungodly,
however, say:

Let us oppress the poor righteous man,
let us not spare the widow,
nor reverence the ancient gray hairs of the aged.
Let our strength be the law of justice:
for that which is feeble is found to be nothing worth."

@Museek

yes, one sure thing. MAGA policies are going to reduce the number of Homo sapiens along with the rest.

@tgraph52

i'm suspicious. not unusual, but it's strong right now.

@RetiredLEexec

exactly. this is the archetype that is governing MAGA minds, so this is what to expect.

Yahweh’s allocutions:

"This is I, the creator of all the
ungovernable, ruthless forces of Nature.

I am an amoral force of Nature, a purely phenomenal
personality that cannot see its own back."

This could be a moral satisfaction for Job,

because through this declaration man, in spite of his impotence, is
set up as a judge over God himself.

We do not know whether Job realizes

the fact that a kind of Moira or Dike rules over Yahweh,

causing him to give himself away so blatantly.

One can submit to such a God only with fear and trembling, and can
try indirectly to propitiate the despot with unctuous praises and
ostentatious obedience.

But a relationship of trust seems completely out of
the question to our modern way of thinking.

Nor can moral satisfaction be
expected from an unconscious nature god of this kind.

@MariaAragon64

now we must work together as never before in our lifetimes.

fascism is a recurring phenomenon and we will get stronger and more resilient fighting it again.

This symbolism explains

Yahweh’s behaviour, which, from the human point of view, is so intolerable:

it is the behaviour of an unconscious being who cannot be judged morally.

Yahweh is a phenomenon and, as Job says,
“not a man".

Of the four animals of Yahweh

only one has a human face.

That is probably Satan, the godfather of man as a spiritual being.

Ezekiel’s vision attributes
three-fourths animal nature and only one-fourth human nature to

the animal deity, while the upper deity, the one above the “sapphire throne,”

merely had the “likeness” of a man.
