On the folly of “TAKING SIDES”: Kucinich, Eisenstein, Bernard Guenther

I remember when brave, foolish idealist Dennis Kucinich proposed a Department of Peace. That was way back in 2002. Twenty one years later, here we are, the phenomenon of war having grown so horrifically that there may actually be some kind of extraordinary shift, just now, in the making. See yesterday’s post.  Here’s Kucinich’s latest:

The Nothingness of War Consciousness

In May of this year, RFK Jr. chose Kucinich to be his campaign manager. But on October 13, a few days after RFK Jr. decided to run as an Independent, Kucinich resigned. Why? He won’t say. However, RFK Jr. himself does appear to have picked a side: Israel.

Charles Eisenstein hones in on the inevitable perils of choosing sides.

A Story Told A Hundred Thousand Times

I wonder: is Eisenstein still part of the RFK Jr. campaign?

Former “activist” Bernard Guenther, in a long post explaining why he doesn’t take sides, presents the transformation he himself went through, and points especially to the necessity for shadow work. Remember: The line between good and evil runs through the heart of every single one of us. Whenever we “take sides,” we lose whatever balance we have managed to create within ourselves, and thus become ripe for the taking of whatever forces from beyond are running this clown show that aims to continuously divide us to the point where we fission into isolated atoms, splitting into the void, blown hither and yonder with no meaning, no context, nothing. Yes. As Kucinich puts it, the nothingness of war consciousness.
