Part of the way the U.S. Empire’s elections are rigged is the corporate media’s censorship of third-party candidates, despite their nationwide campaign efforts.
The Green Party, running Dr. Jill Stein for President—on a platform more progressive than Bernie Sanders—has been totally ignored by the establishment.
Abby Martin sits down with Dr. Stein to look at how her career in medicine helped her diagnose America’s “multi-organ failure,” and why her ideas pose such a threat to Empire.

I wonder if Jill Stein ever considered that the disease may simply be mankind itself.
Early Humans Were Invasive Species
ARE HUMANS UNSUSTAINABLE ‘SUPER PREDATORS’?
Better we recognize this than to falsely think that hardwired behavior, the legacy of our Stone Age ancestors, can be changed overnight.
Are you saying that overpopulation is the biggest problem?
No, rather it’s the fact that humans are inherently unsustainable. https://vimeo.com/25059671
We have between 4-11 years to peak global emissions, or risk environmental and economic collapse.
Right now we are witnessing the extinction of the Great Barrier Reef, the largest living ecosystem on the planet that formed after the last Ice Age and upon which one billion people depend for their survival:
The Great Barrier Reef Death Watch: Comprehensive aerial survey reveals full extent of the devastation caused by abnormally warm ocean temperatures, 93% of reefs hit by coral bleaching
Our socio-economic system has done a really good job of atomizing society and hiding the horrors and destruction of industrial civilization. The eco-conscious mind suffers in silence and isolation lest they be killed.
Thanks for all the additional info and links, Mike.
Have a nice day!!! :)
Thanks and you, too. Cheers. :)

Good interview, excellent diagnostics from Dr Stein…but how to persuade those who are most affected to correct this precipitous trend, when the key perpetrators of lethal climate disruption and habitat degradation are those very ecocidal criminals who purport to be the nation’s (& the world’s) most entitled guardians?
The disease is planetary and endemic, so the necessary cure may be beyond the wit of “man” to dispense. All we can do is keep working together, stay committed and confident; continue to refine our analysis, and coordinate our methods to implement the most effective, plausible & realistic
solutions.
Two key areas of urgent concern: forests and oceans.
Nature is the Great Physician. The more we heed Her Way and Wisdom, the greater will be our learning, our understanding and instinctive capacity to act from strength…
Thanks, David, so true. I don’t understand how climate change and the destruction of the world’s resources, forests, oceans are not the most talked about topic. It should be the central issue of the day.
