If a relatively few super-rich people control our wealth and power then it would be in their interest to keep the masses angry and blaming each other, fighting amongst themselves. In this way Donald Trump is a tool of the oligarchy, dividing us by twitters\u2014so efficient and profitable and addicting\u2014he incites fear of the other. So, if this is true, the most effective method of fighting oligarchic control might be to give up our fear of the other. I\u2019ve been trying to practice this method by driving around Trump Country and talking to people, listening to people, because I find that listening dissolves fear.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n Donate
