Does the flag support the fag?

Why, yes it does.

This morning I will share that I have an interchange with my neighbor, whom I will call simply A, on my mind. Last night, before nightfall, I attached an American flag to my mailbox which sits at the bottom of my long driveway next to the 2 other mailboxes belonging to neighbors with an easement across the bottom of my property.

It didn’t go on exactly as I hoped, facing out over my box, instead it flew out above and over the other two, I guessed it would trigger a complaint, and planned to mount it better elsewhere, but at the moment, there was barely a shred of light left and I was eager to take a dark hike with my dogs in the warm eve at a particular state park where I had a paved road to walk and no cars would be there, so the dogs could run free without harm. This is how I clear my mind and breathe.

I had a common law class at 7 pm to make, and not so much time to do all this.

Sure enough, as I was in the online class a text came through from A. Here, I will share it: “Will you please rearrange your flag so it isn’t on my side? That’s not representative of my ethics and values, especially as of this election, I fear for the future of my children and potential grandchildren who can’t access health care. I fear for immigrants who deserve a better life. I fear for the climate that will absolutely be bulldozed under the hideous excuse of a human that was just re-elected. Please respect our boundaries.”

What followed was an extended text conversation, wherein she revealed that she thought God was a fairytale, and I did my best to reassure her that Trump is not a war monger, not invested in war weaponry, and the environment will finally be MORE taken care of (RFK) and that open borders with 300+ k children sexually tortured and missing was not offering a better life. I did my best to tell her that American people are essentially good, and that I have faith in them and that I love my country, and I love that she is part of it. She soon retorted that “everyone thinks I am a nut, and no longer shall she defend me.”

She said obviously I have zero interest in woman’s rights gay, trans and ethnically diverse rights and that she wants no further interaction with me, that she will be civil. I said “ in fact you have never asked me about these things. So how could you know? That’s why I hate assumptions, they always are a result of shallow thinking and lack of careful inquiry. Enough for now, suffice it to say you are 180 degree incorrect.”

“Fare you well”, her reply.

So now,

I have it on my mind. I am leaning towards saying that well thank you for calling me nuts, it’s indicative of nourishing food, protected by a shell. Shall I lean into mean, or stay cool even and kind? That infuriates people even more. I might say, I’d rather be a nut than an empty vessel, devoid of of any discernment capacity, defined only by a need to belong to a group of empty vessels filled with whatever views the corporate empire desires me to have.

So to this text I wrote her:

Dear Alex I am all over it. I’m not happy with how it is right now. However. I encourage you to seek a place of calm and at least know that our country is filled with caring people who are far more tolerant and respectful than the press would have you believe. Also know that the environment is going to be more protected than it ever was previously. Especially since war is the hugest insult to the climate and it begs the question how they can claim that threat and yet allow for environmental devastation of war. Trump for all his work and wealth has shown himself to be a person adverse to war as a means of profit or a means of true resolution of differences. So I know what you have been told he is. But I also know that Kamala and the press have been telling you what he says but they are all speaking hearsay. And until and unless you hear the speeches he makes and hear what he says in context it must be said that you cannot say that what you’re told he has said is really what he has.  I have watched this country devolve. Watched the party I once belonged to devolve. Experienced hate from my town for my choices to turn down an experimental injection which after turned out to be fraudulent. I love my country. I love that you are part of it. I am proud of the people who love instead of hate. Who seek peace and honor, family and harmony with Nature. There is a false charge that this country is fundamentally racist. I see a country that fundamentally loves people and wants to take care of each other.  Inviting 20 million over the border and putting it in the cartels hands is not an act of love towards anyone. Especially the nameless minors who are trafficked and sexually tortured.  There are over 300 k. As a result of this.  These children have borne the brunt of suffering of cartel held borders. Please breathe out your fears send them to god. I give you my word that people care about you and about our land. About others of all races and about nature. You will see soon a renaissance of care towards all that needs attending to.  The flag represents all the is good and the people are universally good people without malcontent. They love trump because he loves them. He puts out love and respect .  I urge you to set your fear aside. It never serves. Roll up your sleeves and find a way to help our country. I am working on a way of increasing our network of regenerative farming across the country. Now  I will be able to do so much more in that regard with this new admin.  We are good people Alex leave aside the labels and know that we are multicolored and multicultured and willing to find out what a loving country can do.

I just figured Id email it to myself and put here, here is the whole rest of the conversation

A: , Yeah, no. God is a fairy tale. Trump loves no one but himself. There is not an iota  that I can support regarding trump and his supporters. Please don’t impose your views upon mine and Stacey’s. Sadly, after reading your spiel, I no longer have any respect for you. I will always be civil because I’m not an asshole but I have no tolerance for racist, misogynist, rapist, grifting, cheating conmen. I am sick that my children are endangered by the upcoming government.

Me: You have been programmed to hate rather than to seek understanding.  I am sorry to see that. Never let a man bring you so low as to hate him Dr king said this.  I’m sad you are suffering please try to check your negativity at the door. I do not need your respect. I have self respect to accept there is a greater power than humans and it is Source capacity for creative and abundant harmony. Living amongst the hate here in putney while proclaiming tolerance is toxic. This is the home of hate I hope you change that by serving others without judgement. So enjoy your hate but its bad for the health!

A: Everyone in town thinks you are nuts. I’ve defended you as I imagined you have the best of intentions. I am sad to see that is not the case. I still wish the best for you.

Me: Talk with good boundaries, you are not Trump, therefore you cannot speak to what he loves. No everyone does not. I see people in negative terms but do my best to try to see them thru a loving lens. I absolutely thank you for wishing me well, A.

A: So disappointing. I no longer wish to engage with you but I do wish you well.

Me: Im in a law class online, please excuse me. I want to attend, I thank you for your civility that is so important. It’s ok, We can play it be ear, take care. I wish you well too and goodnight.

A: I am not interested in any further engagement with you Emily, you obviously do not care about women’s rights, gay rights, trans rights or ethically diverse rights and that tells me all I need to know about you. Thank you in advance for adjusting your flag.

Me: Well you would be quite incorrect to presume this about me, in fact you have never asked me about these things. So how could you know? That’s why I hate assumptions, they always are a result of shallow thinking and lack of careful inquiry. Enough for now, suffice it to say you are 180 degree incorrect.

Hmm, this will be fun. How shall I address this?

I think another letter to the editor, of the daily paper this time, the one that might print what I write:

Dear Editor of the Reformer.

My neighbor took offense that I put an American flag on my mailbox last night, because I mounted it so the flag flew out over her mailboxes. I knew I had to remount it better, but didn’t have time or the light to do it last night. She texted me: “Will you please rearrange your flag so it isn’t on my side? That’s not representative of my ethics and values, especially as of this election, I fear for the future of my children and potential grandchildren who can’t access health care. I fear for immigrants who deserve a better life. I fear for the climate that will absolutely be bulldozed under the hideous excuse of a human that was just re-elected. Please respect our boundaries.”

I would like to speak my mind on this, since I see her text message is full of conflations. The American Flag stands for our republic, and our freedoms as individuals sharing a land, and government. One of the most important foundational freedoms is the freedom to speak one’s mind, to criticize government, each other and do so without fear. Soldiers have died to protect our Constitutional rights. So, I point out here to her and anyone, this flag, representing her freedom to have and express her opinion DOES actually represent her values. 

The American Flag also stands for our right to be free in the manner of our personal choices, it reflects our Constitution that instructs government to serve everyones’ right to bodily autonomy, privacy and religion, or conscience. Our Constitution instructs for pure elections, and thus allows for the people to alter their government through them. This is what the Flag represents. This is what the people have done on Nov 5, overcoming many impurities by their numbers. She has the right to reform and alter government. 

I happen to believe, for the record, since she assumed otherwise, that everyone’s personal choices are between themselves and God, however, I do not think of God as a wizened wizard-like figure in the clouds, rather as Living Source Wisdom in intelligent ethers. It is not inherently male, in my understanding. Who created the Nature here in Vermont? Pfizer? 

We have just been through Covid where the Government has subjugated the population to a series of injections, imprisonment and destruction of personal businesses, while absolving themselves of the very mandates they demand we obey, enriching their financial superiors beyond measure. I am not for this. I am thrilled that others in the country have removed the administration that did this. I believe that had our community had more people of African American descent, these people would have warned Vermonters of the bad outcomes of other experiments, namely the Tuskegee experiments. The VAERS reports, known to under-report by a factor of 10, according to a Harvard study, has listed over 1.2 million deaths associated with the injections. I am not happy this has happened to my naive community. 

She paints a very interesting picture, how do you bulldoze a climate? I will tell you, however, that if you wanted to care for 'climate change' e.g. Nature,  the very most important activity the government would engage itself in, is the establishment of a large and broad network of micro, small and medium regenerative, organic farms. The fact that government does its antithesis,  allows poisons on our soils that destroy the natural world and our health, informs me. With the presence of Robert F Kennedy Jr in the next administration, we will have the foremost champion of Nature with litigative success almost unparalleled to halt corporate perversion of Nature for profit. And the fact that the people overwhelmingly voted for him through Trump ought to be very relieving to every person concerned about the destruction of Nature by government and corporate empire.

Now here is a very important point concerning woman’s rights. How may one stand up for women while concurrently encouraging someone with male physiology to compete unfairly in their sports? Thats like allowing for competition of male reproductive prowess by women armed and strapped with plastic facsimiles that inject 100% alive specimens.

Oops I don’t think they will allow that part, do you?

Lets rethink. ……..I could add, plastic facsimiles with vibrational capacity..

heheh.

How is it ‘healthy’ to abort a child? Does it not cause all kinds of mental anguish? This is what I believe she means by woman’s health. I would say woman’s health also means capacity to earn enough to CHOOSE whether or not to carry, and to be able to care for a child economically while devoting more time and attention to the next generation. My view, destruction of a fetus is between the woman and her Conscious or her God.  If a person gets an abortion, that emotional hardship is 'punishment' enough. Government has long attempted to control others and subjugate women specifically to males, and the many to the few. I stand against that. 

I believe we do not have economic conditions that favor women enough, so that they CAN have children and devote themselves thus. Also, we incorrectly blame women having children for ‘climate change”. The blame for that is 100% on a monetary system that compels slavery and indenture by all including the governmental class to a banking elite so greedy it will instigate war and environmental destruction for control of humanity. It will open borders to undermine the jobs held now by minorities here, with noncitizen people willing to work for pennies. I also ask this, why is the “right” the only “side” concerned with child sex slavery and trafficking? A horrifying consequence of an open border.

War of course, is the worst insult to ‘climate change’, and thankfully we now have an administration that will seek alternatives to war and is not beholden to the military industrial complex as the last is. For the amount of money we poured into war over the last four years we could have established millions of small regenerative farms, repairing health and reducing pollution massively. 

AS far as trans and gay rights. Thankfully, we live in a country where one can be what one wishes, that is not threatened in any fashion. However, our country IS threatened by the encroachment of Shariah law, and if you are concerned about women’s equality, Wowzer, this would be your issue. Protecting our country from that and Chinese communism (where the Apple company that made my computer has a factory with nets around its building to catch people jumping out of windows to kill themselves, and to keep them alive and industrious for Apple) is an under-discussed priority. 

The CCP has infiltrated our country on a scale that is hazardous to our freedoms. The last admin encouraged, rather than discouraged that infiltration. 

My personal view regarding obsession with all and any forms of sexuality, there are more important things to focus on, like repairing Nature, maintaining our Freedoms and enhancing the people’s economic freedom from indenture to the banking elite sector. Once we accomplish that together, sexual obsessiveness through media indoctrination will be replaced by actual economic, expressive and creative freedom. 

So, I am telling Alex and everyone else who thinks I’m nuts, thank God (Living Source Wisdom) I am, because if I weren’t, you would not have someone smart enough to develop a path to economic empowerment for you and your children of all colors, and brave enough to stand up for your rights of all colors and sexes, and build a future for your children with their right to be free intact, augmented by empowerment of their creative capacity to meet the crises we leave them. 

Next please ask me how serious I am about indigenous wisdom. The Flag, insofar as it represents subjugation of their people, also represents our capacity to alter our governance to honor the true harmony indigenous American people knew with Nature so subsequent Americans may learn to be so wise.  

The US flag represents your right to personal values and ethics neighbor, when you get down to it.
