Thanks for your mirror SOTTREADER, I am perhaps too emotional about Trump losing the election. For me, it's a drama that hits close to home. I grew up in the 60's and 70's. I was an ok boomer. I am just trying to be one of the wise virgins. Some of us in America still have some sort of illusion - it's like a Norman Rockwell painting. It's not real but it's realer than real.I think the anger and perhaps rage that @Mark7 is exhibiting is quite interesting.
It's interesting because it's from the inability to effect the outcome of this situation. It's the realisation that power doesn't actually reside with him, the people. It's the expression of the realisation that the democracy he thought he lived in doesn't actually exist. It's the denial of this, he hopes, he wishes, he lashes out that this lie that he's fallen for is in fact a lie and Trump will indeed be made president.
I imagine quite a few million people in the US are going through these emotions. It'll be interesting to see what comes of it. Millions must be feeling quite toothless and I don't think they are used to feeling toothless so I expect at some point there will be an explosion of anger and rage that will emerge from these ranks. That's my guess.
I like that.I come to this forum to be wrong sometimes, to stay awake.
Q: (L) Let me ask this, CD asked an interesting question. It was, if we know what he thinks we know, and if we are building the kind of strength that he thinks we are building, and getting factual information about all such things, why hasn’t somebody, either on third density or fourth density, seen fit to stop or block us? He was asking very plainly why has something physical not been done to, as he put it, “take us out?”
A: The powers that be want slow release of information.
Q: (L) Does this include the fourth density STS?
A: No, but they don’t see that which they do not wish to see. [Now notice the distinction here. They said that “the powers that be” want a slow release of information, and I asked if this included the STS factions and the answer was “no.” So that obviously means that the “powers that be” we are talking about here may be the “good guys.”]
Q: (L) They don’t see us as a threat?
A: More like an annoyance.
The process of rechanneling this energy involves six interplaying elements, five of which are called the “attributes of warriorship” – control, discipline, forbearance, timing, and will. While these apply to the inner world of the warrior, the sixth applies to the external world: the petty tyrant. “A petty tyrant is a tormentor. Someone who either holds the power of life and death over warriors or simply annoys them to distraction.”
[...]
Don Juan told Carlos, “My benefactor explained something very interesting. Forbearance means holding back with the spirit something that the warrior knows is rightfully due. It doesn’t mean that a warrior goes around plotting to do anybody mischief, or planning to settle past scores. Forbearance is something independent. As long as the warrior has control, discipline, and timing, forbearance assures giving whatever is due to whoever deserves it.”
Carlos asked don Juan what measured defeat in an encounter with a petty tyrant. “Anyone who joins the petty tyrant is defeated,” he replied. “To act in anger, without control and discipline, to have no forbearance, is to be defeated.”
"At some point..." It's hard to know if this is the tipping point. There have been so many horrendous things over the years, and most of us just let it go.I think that at some point people will be angry enough that mass-disobedience will start en that people will revolt.

Gave you a few thumbs down on your posts. Never did that to anybody else somehow. All's I will say is that I am not the only one.
I get the impression that you are a young man who is seeking knowledge. I come to this forum to be wrong sometimes, to stay awake.
I have been some sort of a member through several iterations of this forum. I value being here. I need to WORK and pray. Sorry to everyone for my blind spots.
Yup, 3D Earth STS dominance hierarchy.What I have gleaned from this whole affair is that on this planet might makes right.
Wow. Go Nevada!The odds of turning the election are slim but let's appreciate the fact that there are still people fighting the good fight.
Wow. Go Nevada!
This means when the electors go to DC on Jan 6th, with dueling electors, the VP, which is Pence, can decided to take either the Dem or Repub electors, or can just say we're not counting those. If that happens and Biden or Trump can't get 270 votes, then each state gets 1 vote based on their legislature - in which case, Trump would have the most votes. If I'm not mistaken.It's not only Nevada. Republicans in Georgia and Pennsylvania also casted their electoral college votes for President Trump and Vice President Pence. Perhaps more will follow? But let's not get our hopes up too high. But it surely is interesting.
