"That should really piss you off.... God isn’t on our side" made me think of Anna Akhmatova's "The Last Toast":

I drink to our ruined house,

to the dolor of my life,

to our loneliness together;

and to you I raise my glass,

to lying lips that have betrayed us,

to dead-cold, pitiless eyes,

and to the hard realities:

that the world is brutal and coarse,

that God in fact has not saved us.

My only disagreement is your statement that the abortion ban is raising a ruckus because it affects white people. Although it affects all women (and men too IMO) those most affected will be low income women (primary Bipoc) who cannot afford to travel from red states to states where abortion is still legal. So once against it’s the same people who get shit on. The rest of us are trying to help and raising a ruckus is part of that. Peace out.

That old "arc of history" saw is so much whistling past the graveyard. The options are action or exit. The game can start over at any time, and you have voice (action) or exit as your two options.

People do not rule the planet . Mother Nature is in control.

Killing babies is evil . Life begins at conception .

You will never have influence until you accept physical reality .

Post Modernism is full or myths, come back to reality .

Are we heading towards Star Trek, or Mad Max?

In the Star Trek universe, the world went through a long period of looking like Mad Max, and the only thing that turned it around was making first contact with an alien species.

So, you might want to buckle up.
