It is getting harder to see it these days, but I always hold on to this quote from Samwise in LOTR: "There's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo, and it's worth fighting for."

The people who'll tell you today's murder victim in Minnesota shouldn't have turned up to a protest carrying a gun are the same people who said Kyle Rittenhouse was perfectly entitled to do the same thing.

On this day in 1870, more than 200 Blackfeet people-mostly children, women & elders-were massacred by the US Army at the Marias River in what is now Montana.
Settler violence has been ongoing for centuries and is at the very core of the 'American project.'

You don’t know your role yet maybe, but we are all finding out just what we have to offer.

In Minneapolis, one man knew immediately what he could offer and said “Bring me your clothing”.

"We knew the story of the international rules-based order was partially false. That the strongest would exempt themselves when convenient. That trade rules were enforced asymmetrically. And that international law applied with varying rigour depending on the identity of the accused or the victim."

"What if we have all internalized the belief that we are entirely on our own, and that interdependence and cooperation are signs of weakness?

That would be a pretty good way to create a society devoid of any form of collective organising; devoid of much real hope."

The purpose of the liberal rules-based order was not to constrain the actions of the United States. It was to lend legitimacy to a world system structured around US empire.

Trump has torn down this façade - what's left is the reality of naked imperialism.

The façade that once legitimised empire has collapsed. What remains is power without apology.
