The app for independent voices

I hope you keep going, Gypsy33 because the world needs people who care. There are way too many who don't. I don't think THIS is your time to go, i.e. die. You are not alone in having the weird and scary dreams. I am sure many reading these comments are also having some strange dreams. Our world is upside down and it is confusing, especially for those of us who are over 70 or so. It is confusing and discouraging because many of us have lived through Vietnam, Korea and the post second war McCarthyism, botched abortions, and then Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen and on and on. I had always hoped that all that marching, all that consciousness raising, combined with reading and education would make the world a better place. Sometimes the world is better. More recognition of people with disabilities, more acceptance of different sexual choices, more understanding of the stupidity of racism, more understanding of the harmful effects of sexism.....but then the evangelicals and the billionaires came along and took over and they have been working just as hard on getting back to how things were as we made trying to escape it. I think technology will foil their attempts, but it will take time and patience. And technology has its issues too. Keep the comments coming.
