It’s a shame he hadn’t mentioned Canada. We may have an equally problematic fascist undertow here; particularly as one of our past PMs is tending a proverbial lighthouse for most of the world’s regressive and constipated political parties.

With all due respect, it may be time for the monarchy to liquidate some of its assets to fund such endeavours along with tax payers. Wouldn’t that gesture be a concrete demonstration of leadership? Perhaps the moneyed elite may take a cue?

This is fantastic! I hear it as a minimalist score with maximal impact.

Thanks for highlighting the rest of your team - it’s a humble gesture that speaks volumes.

Oh, and perhaps we need to start using Progressive rather than Liberal to describe the political centre? Conversely, the right are acting more like Regressive organizations and less like Conservatives.

Thank you Dan. As an experienced, educated, knowledgable, curious and considerate leader in the analysis of our history, your analysis of our current circumstances is critical imho.

To win the game on the chessboard of life
Whether you are a king, a pawn or a knight
Your odds are bleak and your chances are slight
Without a queen to lead in the fight.

You are a rockstar.

Common sense revolution could be renamed to conmen sense revolution.

Didn’t you once write a story about a self-driving car possessed by malevolent forces..

Our streets are now littered with the newly nationalized cars which have the potential to be self-driven and controlled by a malevolent and egomaniac grifter.

Thanks for sharing your work.
