'We can all participate in the creation of a culture of wise choices that divest us from anti-democratic platforms and activities that are toxic to our humanity.'

We live in a time when bribery, in the form of campaign donations, is construed by our nation's Supreme Court as free speech, and divestment of the kind that helped pressure South Africa to dismantle its apartheid system is equated in the corporate media as censorship. These are signs that the culture in our democracy is unhealthy, diseased.

The censorship narrative going on right now over the choice made by Neil Young and other artists to divest themselves from economic participation in Spotify should be easy to recognize as just another version of the"free market lie." This type of societal infrastructure is not an example of freedom, but of the imprisoning character of disease. It closes minds, bankrupts households, chains humanity, and uses hatred to impose group think.

And when are government labors under the illness of corruption, the immune system of society is weak and other diseases spread, like the racism of Joe Rogan and Tucker Carlson. And we can all participate in the creation of a culture of wise choices that divest us from anti-democratic platforms and activities that are toxic to our humanity.
