We demand an immediate worldwide emergency program, led by climate scientists, to slash fossil fuels, end climate abuse and repair our planet.

American Women Poised to Veto Dobbs, Dismiss SCOTUS

This begins a long ongoing period of nonviolent noncooperation to restore justice and sanity. And end patriarchy.

So, the 4B Movement, which originated in Korea, is coming to America. It will have an impact that rivaled the British Invasion of 1964. We are talking about a new culture, not ruled from above but bubbling up from below.

The people are speaking and they have declared their independence.

Not Waiting, and Not “Working Through the System”

In a failed country, with a failed population that rejected freedom and demanded control over women’s bodies, women are saying “no.”

Hands off, rapists! We have a rapist administration and a rapist electorate. Those of us who are sane, caring and decent human beings-of any gender-reject them fully, completely, without reservation or compromise.

While some wait for the Democrats to regroup and reverse the disaster of 2024, smart Americans AREN’T waiting. The entire political system is awash in corporate money, corrupt to the core, and even genuinely nice people working within such a cesspool can do little good and get very dirty.

We reject the entire system outright. We reject all forms of exploitation, all forms of abuse, whether in business or government or just ordinary hateful people on the street. We will not sing kumbaya with those who seek to destroy us, to violate our rights, and abuse our bodies.

And the people who rioted and killed the last time they lost have no standing to tell us to behave and accept their victory.

The fools who won the election and are right now cheerfully ruining the entire planet expect women to give up, be sad, and then simply submit.

Nope. Women-and men who are real men, and all decent people-have decided that women everywhere can choose to be free and happy, and will never submit.

4B Movement—Just Do It

You don’t need to check with anyone to take control of your own body. You don’t need to have a debate. Nobody, I mean NOBODY has the standing to decide what happens to your body except you. It’s not for the states. It’s not for the federal government. It’s not for the Supreme Court of sex abusers and misogynists like Kavanaugh and Thomas.

This is a decision for each person. Those who have self-respect, who love justice and reject cruelty…well, they are joining the 4B Movement. Because too many Americans, proudly and in large numbers, VOTED for A RAPIST and demand control of women’s bodies, women are saying no.

The 4B Movement is a pledge to stand up for justice and human dignity. Growing numbers of women have decided to stop having sex with men, stop having babies, stop performing unpaid labor for men, and stop participating in the patriarchy.

Is it a sacrifice for women to stop having sex with men? Well, who the hell wants to have sex with people who either call for your abuse, or abuse you, or refuse to help you when you are being abused?

Really, by behaving like monsters, millions of men have disqualified themselves from sex and from love. This was their choice—tens of millions of them.

The SCOTUS Has No Standing to Ruin Our Children’s Earth, Either

The broken and corporate-owned courts, which are ready to kill everyone’s children so that Big Oil can maximize profits over their dead bodies, decided that nobody can protect the Earth from climate collapse.

Even as we watch Nature’s wrath of mind-boggling floods (nearly a third of Pakistan was under water), impossible heat (Siberia topped 100 degrees), and endless record-breaking killer storms, the Court thinks this is all okay.

It’s not. Just as we reject abuse of women, we also reject the rampant child abuse by this dying and hopelessly broken excuse for a civilization.

We know how to fix it. It’s not by working with this system. The system is designed to protect selfish, greedy and cruel elites-and to disempower us. We aren’t stupid. We know better. We have a better way.

Gandhi and King knew it. And zillions of lesser-known people and movements understood—the power of elites and authorities and “leaders” is illusory. The real power lies with us, with ordinary people. And WE have this power because we do all the real work and nothing happens without us.

ExxonMobil CEO Darren Woods cannot extract oil, cannot process it, cannot ship it, cannot sell it and cannot burn it. He only issues orders and if we refuse those orders, nothing happens. Yes, we literally have the power to end the planetary abuse that is ruining the future of everyone’s children.

Oh, I’ve heard the excuses. Billions of dollars have been spent spreading lies, to preserve the illusion that we have no choices and no power. But the fact is, if we continue to burn gigatons of fossil fuels every year, our climate will collapse fully and everyone loses. Including the “victorious” oil billionaires. Because the biosphere that keeps us alive will be gone.

WE won’t let that happen. Just as women can refuse to cooperate with misogynist rapists, all Earthlings can reject and refuse to cooperate with climate abuse. Yes, not everyone will participate, but history shows we don’t need everyone. We just need enough people, and that’s a suprisingly small number.

For example, the movement that successfully deposed the Serbian dictator Milosevic and replaced his brutal regime with a representative government began with just 5 college students.

We can and must do this. In fact, we have begun. A group called The Saners is planning to prevent climate collapse using nonviolent noncooperation. The group also plans to replace this dying civilization, a civilization of greed and selfishness and cruelty, with a society built on kindness, generosity and respect for Life and Nature.

This is the way ahead. This is the people power that ejected the great British Empire from India, that ousted dozens of tyrants, that humbled and dismantled the Soviet Union. When we stop pumping oil, when we stop shooting at protesters, when we stop building yachts and private jets, and when we take care of each other instead of clueless elites—then we have a future.
