Thoughts (nothing new) after coffee and before I put in a day’s work with a hired helper … tidying up around here. (The stuff below … is not very organized …; however, I am ATTEMPTING to communicate, primarily with my friends to the relatively far-Right politically.)
1. I am definitely more conservative than most U.S. citizens. (Trump and Trumpians are FAR from being conservative!)
2. I am not poor and have been VERY lucky in life, but for many reasons I do identify with the poor, disenfranchised, homeless, recent & other undocumented immigrants, have-nots … even desperate very terrible “criminals”.
3. I am not a disciplined, structured, “typical” scientist-type. However, I do believe in a process of Science and in Scientific knowledge (& resultant wisdom and prudence). Given my little- brain, -energy, and -discipline (& therefore -knowledge, -etc.), I have have persistently worked in university & other structured courses & library stacks, etc. and through picking the brains of scientists & others from about 1966 … in efforts to truly profoundly & holistically understand biological/ecological systems … and perhaps put the human component of those systems on a track toward the systems being better for quality life for all.
4. Nevertheless, I do also understand that Faith (INFORMED BY Science) within humanity is super-important for sustainable ecological community including human beings.
5. As I have stated repeatedly recently, I am certain that key needs for sustainable ecological community are …
o ecological literacy,
o de-weaponization & demilitarization,
o Degrowth,
o global local sustainable agrarianism which is quasi-matriarchal, and
o equity.
