A reminder: the blitzkrieg is deliberate [1]

I get 300-400 emails daily, which makes me wonder just how effective they are.

Anyway, among the flood was one that quoted a third party. I thought it was worth sharing the observation and reminding myself—and all of us—that wearing us down, tiring us out, beating us into the ground, IS THE STRATEGY. Here’s the quote:

“As Rashida James-Saadiya wrote recently in Truthout, ‘Exhaustion is a strategy. What looks like collective fatigue is actually the consequence of a carefully engineered mechanism designed to rob us of our power — our power to resist, to imagine, to protect each other and to create sustainable change.’”

“Yet, James-Saadiya concludes, ‘In recognizing our fatigue as deliberately engineered, we expose the system’s fundamental fear: that despite their best efforts to wear us down, we will always find ways to resist together.’”

RESIST! Any way you can, but RESIST!
