Might does not make right. … A demagogue’s winning of an election does not make him right. And we should have affirmative action and education and rehabilitation toward riddance of discrimination, disparity, and inequity. No one human should have such Power as an Elon Musk, Bezos, Bill Gates, Zuckerberg, or Warren Buffett. ……….. Equity Inclusion […]

Trump & Trumpism. Realization of a Threat Because of Us Deplorables
Just a little thought while doing PT for my newly-replaced knee … after watching some morning “news” and while listening to some great 92.1-New Braunfels Americana music including good ol’ John Prine. … ******* SORRY!!! But … It could’ve been WW III and global nuclear warfare. It could have been global collapse of our precarious […]
A Piece All Should Read Concerning “Awareness” of Our Overly Complex Metaproblem & Existential Threat (of Extinction, or Worse) … & Need for Sustainable Ecological Community That Shifts to Our “Naturally-Evolved” K-Strategy/K-Culture
Sent from our son John Alton this morning (3/22/2025)! (URL below) (It is a great piece!!!) paul bain martin (7 Ss / VV->^^ ) In Solidarity towards Necessary Degrowth & Sustainable Ecological “Communitarianism” https://www.sustainable.soltechdesigns.com/climbing-the-ladder.html?fbclid=IwY2xjawJOcOlleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHXdkKUZJVmUFkSwt1pcvAoAK57zsiBZrdrKgxJ6iphDE9piVNThj-IJOVA_aem_PPIdtAjOIj0sGTRx0YyKWQ *********************************** And my response: “Dear son John, I do love you dearly!!!

Results of the Genetics & Epigenetics from Louise Kneuper & Alton Martin, and Subsequent Environmental Influences from the Womb Immediately Following WW II to this Current Time of Trumpism … of One Insignificant Biotic Individual Among the TRILLIONS Which Have Existed (and Who Very Soon Will Dissipate Into the Mystic … as Will “The Great Demagogue” Donald J. Trump & Each of His Deplorably Enabling Trumpsters)
Yes!!! … I do focus far too much on ME in ecological community. And I AM a “toxic” pragmatic idealist and pain-in-the-butt, Don Quixote gadfly who is pretty much a utilitarian who strives for sustainable livelihoods across the globe. (Still … though I recognize ugliness & all the terrible violations of the Golden Rule & […]
Hypocrites (Deplorably?) .. and A Pain-in-the-Butt Don Quixote (Also a Deplorable Hypocrite)
First of all I want to go back to the 1980s/90s when I worked in Austin, Texas in various capacities (ultimately as Sustainable Agriculture Coordinator) for wonderful Jim Hightower and his amazing government “bureaucracy”, the Texas Department of Agriculture. After she came to our department as assistant commissioner, Dr. Susan Rieff labeled me as “Don […]
Another of My Stories to Which I Will Mostly Stick
I was, I suppose, “indoctrinated” by real pacifist-christianity, and real caring & real sharing (including therein … learning processes for sustainable livelihoods for all … and staying as much as possible out of the way of Nature, i.e., living in concert with Nature). (In my heart, soul, and mind, I don’t truly believe I was […]
Degrowth Is Absolutely Necessary, Less Is More–Please Hear Us DJT, Trumpians, Trumpsters, Republicans, … Democrats, … ALL!
The five (5) basic real needs for a resilient, sustainable world are!!! … 1. Ecological literacy 2. Deweaponization & demilitarization 3. Degrowth “communitarianism” 4. A local/global sustainable agrarian system 5. Equity …….. ECOLOGICAL LITERACY. Trump & his “groupies” are conning many selfish & ignorant deplorables into believing his current actions will be good for this […]
