When a young Eva Kollisch arrives as a refugee in New York in 1940, she finds a community among socialists who share her values and idealism. She soon discovers ‘the cause’ isn’t as idyllic as it seems. Little does she know this is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to activism and her determination to create radical change in ways that include belonging, love and one's full self.

The Orthodoxy of Medicine 13:29

5 years ago13:29

13:29

The mainstream narrative on covid is one of fear and helplessness. In this way, we are being led down a path toward manufactured consent of mandatory vaccination and testing. Whom does this serve? Is this to our benefit or that of multinational corporations, pharmaceutical and technology companies, not to mention the military industrial complex? Do not let the limited facts and propaganda dictate the drastic contours of your life.…

Pluto the Great Unmasking 12:31

12:31

While we scramble to keep our lives in order, the powers behind the scenes are showing themselves to be truly inept, irrelevant and in fact, dangerous to our survival. The masters of the universe crowd are grasping for the last scraps of a dying reality construct. It is time we open our eyes to the farce that is success and wealth in our society. We will come back from this, but it will be under a different social order if we are willing to demand a stake at the table and retribution from the perpetrators of this economic, political and medical disaster.…

Pandemic Theatre 7:47

While we are focussed on the acute nightmare of an invisible pathogen, what else is going on behind the scenes? What social, political, extrajudicial, financial abuse might be taking place? How did this event come to be? Whether the madness of men or the benevolence or wrath of Gaia, we must keep our eyes, ears and minds open to quickly changing paradigms and question everything.…

CORONAVIRUS AS A TEST RUN TO DECELERATION OF THE CAPITALISM ECONOMIC MODEL 9:42

5 years ago9:42

9:42

While with the coronavirus, conspiracy sites speak of end of times or martial law, it is an end of times of a different sort - that of capitalist expansionism and overreach. The virus is the canary in the mine that hopefully forces us to see that we must change course with our economic practices and regard the delicate balance of life and death that we have so callously denied and destroyed through predatory capitalIsm.…

Contagions Large and Small 10:19

10:19

From Walmart to Wall Street, our lives are inextricably linked to China. With the threat of the coronavirus, all eyes are on a possible pandemic. And industrialists, so intent on cheap labor, never considered this disruption in the financial equation. We should NOT be so vulnerable and need a realignment of capitalist principles and economic policy. Saturn/Pluto infers the end of the corporatist era of reckless profiteering. The precipitous decline in the markets is just the beginning of a different kind of global epidemic.…

BERNIE'S REVOLUTION IS ANYTHING BUT - (IN THE BEST SENSE OF THE WORD) 11:35

5 years ago11:35

11:35

Bernie Sander's "radical" agenda should be the floor, not the unattainable ceiling in what would constitute a decent society. In fact, the radicals are the right wing who have wrestled and chained the powers of the government away from the people and toward the powerful few. Let's untangle this ball of lies and set the country straight to avert climate and economic collapse. Otherwise, we're all throwing ourselves on a funeral pyre of our own ignorance and/or complicity.…

Economic Traitors and the Reagan De-Evolution 12:19

5 years ago12:19

12:19

The Reagan Revolution was a palatable version of much more insidious policies stemming from the libertarian wing of the Republican party. Yet, it set in motion a trend toward deregulation and distrust of government that we are still wrestling with today. In fact, such disastrous drip drip poisoning of our government has brought us to the brink of disaster and the need for real revolution and an honest attempt at democratic economic reform.…

Destruction of Democracy Libertarian style 10:18

10:18

While most sane people are decrying the death of democracy in the aborted impeachment trial, there is one group that is orgiastic in its pleasure - the plutocrats and the radical right wing libertarians. The fact that our system of governance is failing has been their covert plot and desired goal for over 50 years. The fifth column has invaded our democracy with horrifying results for the average American and the future fate of nation.…

Religion May Be The End Of Us All 7:44

7:44

Our current reawakening of Islamist state fervor brings us to an epic impasse. This shit is biblical as we are still engaged in a holy war for ideological supremacy against those desiring a 15th century caliphate. Instead of inciting violence thanks to our own jihadists in the cabinet, we should be ending centuries of old testament eye for eye vengeance once and for all. We are on the edge of a precipice toward further extinction so instead of the nuclear option, let it be the annihilation of a devolved paradigm of violence and human suffering in the name of religion.…

History Repeats Itself - On Purpose 7:37

While Trump's motivation for ordering the killing of Qud leader Soleimani was purely self-serving, he did wittingly or unwittingly unleash more death and destruction on the planet. As we are approaching a paradigm shifting moment in our history courtesy of a Saturn/Pluto conjunction in the sign of empire, instead of continuous warfare let us consider an end to our history of violence and oppression in support of economic imperialism.…

New Year's Resolution for America - Let's try to lose 325 lbs. 9:30

America needs to go on a diet and shed 325 lbs of toxic fat. It's a matter of health and long-term survival. We're a junk food nation and we're becoming terminally ill with a steady diet of chaos, cruelty, bombasticism and mental and emotional dysfunction. We need to make America great again by booting this turkey out of office (if only for symbolic starters). The triple-header astrology of January is encouraging in this regard.…

The Other White Supremacists 6:45

The literal and figurative pillar that upholds racism and sexism is evangelical Christianity. A failure to accept the world that is, these groups attempt to coerce through media and political clout. Any God who hates those whom Jesus loved - the sick and the poor - is the creation of power hungry men and not divine inspiration.…

Current Politics as The Fear of Death 9:25

5 years ago9:25

9:25

Most politics is fueled by death anxiety - of a culture, of financial prospects, of unearned privilege, of an certain identity or tribal association. Of course, it can be terrifying but we experience mini-deaths everyday which oftentimes advance our lives forward. Life must change and grow and it is only a sociopathic mind that chooses homicide and self destruction over evolution.…

With runaway inequality and corporate abuse, the only trajectory is downward into disaster. Jupiter in Capricorn, along with Pluto and Saturn, will force a new system of economic fairness. To survive, it will be best to submit to necessary restraint and accept responsibility for one's sins.
