Neti, Neti.. Left and Right in Trumpian America

By such sentences as “That thou art,” our own Self is affirmed.
Of the untrue and that of the 5 senses – the Sruti says, “Not this, not that” (Neti, Neti)
(Avadhuta Gita)

How liberals killed the freedom of movement

Bannon speaks

President Trump, the unknown unknowns..

Is Islam the rock on which the liberal order breaks?

Trump’s rise, elite’s fall, liberal order

Only people who are NOT Cis, White or Male can understand and express the real truth of oppressive society. IF this is true, there is no point in struggling within the US system (or even within the US) because more people ARE Cis, White or male. This will always be a minority effort, doomed to fail. IF it is not true, then it is pointless and self-defeating posturing.

My child, how can there be illusion and non illusion, shadow and lack of shadow?
All this is one Truth, all this is of the nature of space and without taint.

(Avadhuta Gita)
