Plog Number 197
Independence Day (Not)
Hey Ploggers, Boom Boom Crash Crash!%@$@#%^ I hope that you have a happy 4th of July day. I am not feeling particularly excited about our rights this holiday. I want to feel that way but I don’t. All my life I have (ignorantly) celebrated the holiday a lot. My family always did big barbeques 🍗 and picnics and fun gatherings. My brother always scored a few dangerous 💫 fireworks, sparklers and twizzlers. We would run around after dark, playing with these things and had a blast. Some of my best childhood memories include running around with my cousins and same aged nieces and nephews. We were in the dark, barefoot, with shorts and t-shirts. Mosquitos🐝 be damned! I will always treasure my childhood memories. They were great, but…
The Supreme Court did us a huge disservice over this last term. If you have read my plogs recently you have seen my run down of the recent decisions. They have been devastating. I feel like we have lost so much ground. Our rights have not eroded. They have been snatched away. Adding injury to insult, the court has been found to be so illegitimate. They are corrupt, prejudice and in the case of Clarence Thomas huge 🐲 grudgeholders. He is taking his grudges out all of us who do not suite him. People who are unable to get over their past and play it out in the present, have a severe mental problem. Those people should not be in positions of power, because they have an inherent bias. So the timing of this holiday with recent Supreme Court decisions is ironic, in a bad way.
So, for those who are celebrating, enjoy the day!! We have more and more opportunities to fight the good fight. We are living in the time of a changing regime. Stay safe, stay aware and RECLAIM
