it's great great great that y'all are making a splash! i do think, though, that the seriousness of what is coming down, both in what this case represents, and in terms of the much bigger societal techtonic plate-shifting it's an outgrowth of--together with the limmited understanding of the implications of this, positive and negative, by legions of progressive-type people--is underscored by the fact that y'all are just about (or maybe entirely; i haven't actually seen any of the coverage) the only people on "our" side who are getting on the airwaves as part of the storm down there in FL.

oh. and. not to nitpick, but--well, in this case i think nitpicking is the right thing to do: just on the off chance that this hasn't been pointed out yet, it's bobavakian.net, not .org, at least as of right now--in case the "morality but not traditional morality" sign is gonna get taken out more, which i think it should.

I salute you and your friend for your bold and imaginative confrontation with the Christian fascist thugs in Florida.

But I'm very puzzled by the wording of the sign that you made -- "We need morality but not traditional morality."

I think people will find that very confusing...I know I did.

To me, it suggests that "morality" -- an arbitrary fixed code of behavior sanctioned by one or more mythological deities -- is something we "need"...just NOT the one we have now.

In confronting our enemies, I think we need to be careful not to grant their outlook any kind of "implied legitimacy".

Reactionaries have always flown the flag of "morality"...I think we need a very DIFFERENT WORD on our flags.

best wishes,
