Go on more walks. Walk for no reason. Walk to solve a problem. Walk to blow off steam. Walk to get outside. Walk to listen, read, and learn. Walk to escape distractions. Walk to improve your health. Walk to think. A simple walking habit can change absolutely everything.

Great discussions

Join the most interesting and insightful discussions.

Educate yourself.

When a question about a certain topic pops up, google it. Watch movies and documentaries. When something sparks your interest, read about it.

Read, read, read.

Study, learn, and stimulate your brain.

Don't just rely on the school system; educate your beautiful mind.

Why do so many Americans embrace the fascist/oligarchs that now control the republican party? Do they not understand that they are actually supporting the corporations and billionaires who pay those in office, and they will be the next to lose their liberties (vote) and rights (guns), and freedoms (speech)?

You ask "why": my guess is that Americans are subjected to a school curriculum chosen by corporate flunkies who have no intention of teaching ethics, civics or the ability to think analitically . I don't know how teachers cope!

My father gave me “Teaching As A Subversive Activity” when I graduated in 1969. It guided me. I had to make my own social studies curriculum for my fourth and fifth graders even until 2012 when I retired. Read “Lies My Teacher Told Me.”

Thanks for this recommendation. Just ordered from ThriftBooks
