What to do now

In the last article posted below, I mentioned the book “How We Prevailed, and What the Future May Hold for Us” by -penname- Jim Byrne. To begin with, I confess that I am the author of the book; I used a penname to avoid being dismissed by racist people who might be put off by my real name. Now, I wish to claim authorship of the book on my website, since it attracts progressives.

The book is available from Amazon. It was published a few months before the presidential elections of 2020, and aimed to promote the progressive cause in an effort to help the Democrats in the elections. In it, I predicted that the Democrats will prevail in 2020. However, I thought that they would succeed by a larger margin than what actually transpired. I was somewhat disappointed, and was further dismayed by the large numbers of those who continued to support past President Trump in spite of all that he has done! Following is my explanation for what had transpired.

In recent decades, the Democratic Party championed the cause of the common people, while the Republican Party supported large corporations and wealthy Americans. In a free democracy, one would expect the Democrats who try to help the great majority of the electorate to prevail. However, Republicans, being aware of this reality, systematically tried, and succeeded in thwarting the free practice of democracy through numerous well documented strategies, and by spreading misinformation and disinformation building up to the conditions that led to the election of past President Trump.

The Democrats must also share some of the blame. Their leadership acted in half hearted ways that led many to think of them as “Republican light”. Their attitudes contributed to the dire conditions that ultimately led to the election of Trump and to the traumatic conditions that ensued after he assumed power. Recent action by the Democratic Party was probably the only practicable way to succeed in reversing conditions at the nick of time. With President Biden at the helm, we could expect a return to sanity. I wish him all the best in addressing the formidable task of pulling the country out of chaos.

I suspect that the progressive Democratic cause will continue to flourish and prevail in the foreseeable future. However, especially in light of what happened on January 6, I am most concerned about the number of gullible Americans who continue to support Trump -close to 45% of Americans- and wonder about how to address this grave issue!? As I mentioned in my last article: it is said that these people will not go away, and my response was that, go away they shall, since they are mortal like the rest of us; eventually, their offspring will be better educated and less gullible. However, this might bear fruit in a generation or even two. Therefore, the question now is how to expedite the implementation of progressive democratic ideas!?

I have been concerned with addressing this issue for decades, conceived potential future scenarios to achieve progress in my last book, and am now thinking about what could be actually done at present. Way back, I contemplated the creation of a body that would rigorously pursue tychiformation and expressed this idea in my first book. Scientific and rational work that contributes to improving the chances of human survival and well being is underway by countless entities around the world. I thought that a Tychiformation Institute (TI), perhaps hosted by a reputable university, could integrate relevant work as well as other work that I believe is needed in a methodical systematic manner to meet the goal of tychiformation. More recently, I decided that it is high time for me to try to implement the TI idea.

I am pursuing potential courses for action to this end, and will keep you posted of my progress.
