It offers a real grace perspective, so... We need to salute this wonderful bit of journalism! Haters and lovers of the former president can both express their diametrically opposed views with a Trump mug-shot mug. Bill Protzmann and I highlight the best of this wonderful article. We explain... * The way partisanship is failing in this instance * How people on each side won * Why freedom helps us get along and increases harmony * The way democracy encourages division and ugliness * Why we need relief valves, such as laughter and grace Plus, we pave a path to Post-Statism. https://zeroaggressionproject.org/mental-lever/post-statism/ 0:00 Intro 0:43 Finding Grace in a Trump article 2:48 Look at all the winners 6:13 Prejudicing jurors? 7:07 WHY this became a "free flow of fun" 9:04 Freedom helps us get along 10:26 Grace is NOT sweetness, politeness 11:19 Democracy becomes the Conflict Machine 12:11 The beauty of laughter in politics 15:12 Etsy harmony vs divisive democracy 17:11 Path to Poststatism Anti-fragile and the discussion of Trump as a political creation is found in episode 61: https://youtu.be/u9uDzshGuGI Bill Protzmann is your moderator.
