One of The Beatles' earlier songs was called "Tell me why." One of the lines is "tell my why you cry, and why you lie to me?" With this song in mind, here are a few random thoughts in early August, 2023.
Tell me why Trump fans are calling Mike Pence a traitor for doing his job in accordance with the constitution?
Along those same lines, tell me why Trump is saying Pence has gone over to the dark side, implying he represents the good side. Yoda would have likely given up on this self-proclaimed Jedi.
Tell me why politicians are making an issue out of whether we should watch "Barbie" or "Oppenheimer?" Really? That is what you are spending your time doing?
Tell me why politicians cannot focus on the good things that are happening, reinforcing those tactics, rather than trying to lie about the successes because it makes the other side look good?
Tell me why influencers cannot speak out asking for action to make our planet better? Greta Thunberg has less than 10 million followers, while some entertainment personalities have over 100 million. For example, they might write do not vote for any politicians who do not support more aggressive climate change action.
Tell me why people like Governors DeSantis and Abbott are spending so much time with their noses in history books than working on making our lives better by addressing existing problems? They could at least stop focusing on exaggerated wedge issues or doing what fossil fuel executives want.
Tell me why.
