Revolution From Within”

A Book of  Self-Esteem 1992 

GLORIA STEINEM


P21  The Plaza Parable

“The mind is it’s own place, and in itself Can make a Heav’n of Hell, a Hell of Heav’n.”

JOHN MILTON


P26  “To put it another way:  I began to understand that self-esteem isn’t everything;  it’s just that there’s nothing without it.”

“Happiness is self-contentedness”.  ARISTOTLE, C. 300 B.C.

“Appreciating my own worth and importance and having the character to be accountable for myself and to act responsibly towards others.”  OFFICIAL DEFINITION OF THE CALIFORNIA TASK FORCE TO PROMOTE SELF-ESTEEM AND PERSONAL AND SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY, 1990.

California Assemblyman John Vasconcelos was the legislator most responsible for the creation of the California Task Force in California in 1990.  “Self -esteem is a “social vaccine” against an epidemic of social dropouts, teenage pregnancy, domestic violence, drug and alcohol addiction, child abuse, and other destructions of self and others.  

Author John A Randolph’s note: I say today our culture’s most tragic societal failures still stem from the generations  of Americans who lack a full understanding of the importance of their own, individual self-esteems.

People Get Ready

PEOPLE GET READY

Are we ready to occupy and shutdown Washington D.C. if we are not allowed a free, legitimate and fair  midterm election? We had better get ready for this.  The maximum capacity of Washington D.C. is 4 million people. We're 349 million strong and vastly outnumber all law enforcement and military 100 to 1. I'm not suggesting aggression. I'm suggesting solidarity of large enough numbers impossible to subdue or control. This is entirely possible. I am suggesting completely shutting down the apparatus until it functions the way it's supposed to. The federal government is not the nation. WE ARE. The government is an aparatus in service to us. What would you do if your car developed a mind of its own and starting going against your directions? No one is coming to save us. Occupation of the Capitol + A spending freeze + A general work strike would grind this nation to a halt in a matter of days, if only implemented at 10%. That's not something we can just pull off successfully all at once. We have to prepare for this. We have to stock our shelves, save money, make plans and organize. NOW IS THE TIME. Yes, vote like we've never have before, like our lives and our nation depends upon it, because it will. But if official dictatorship begins after our votes are not to his liking, we have a confrontation to get ready for. This is what he's already promising us. PEOPLE GET READY. We can't just go vote, allow him to nullify the will of the people and then try to decide what's our next move in the moment. We need to be ready to pull that trigger with ammo locked and loaded. This is no longer a game. American descendants will be studying what we did in this moment.

“ARE Y’ALL TOO BLIND….”

 “ARE Y'ALL BLIND TO WHAT’S COMIN', OR ARE YOU JUST TOO SCARED TO SAY IT?” Warren Buffett snapped, his usually patient, grandfatherly demeanor gone, replaced by a sharp, staccato tone that cut through the studio like a razor.

The room fell silent. Cameras kept rolling as tension thickened the air. The Oracle of Omaha leaned forward, eyes intense behind his glasses, his trademark "folksy" charm completely vanished. “I’m tellin’ you right now,” he continued, his voice tightening with a sudden, grave urgency, “this market and social chaos ain't accidental. This whole mess? It’s fuel. It’s a calculated setup.”

A panelist tried to interrupt, but Warren raised a hand sharply, a gesture of absolute authority. “No—you listen. When the streets start burnin' and the social fabric starts crackin', that’s when dangerous men make their move. T.r.u.m.p don’t fear the disorder. He needs it.”

He paused, letting the weight of the words sink in. “Martial law. Emergency powers. The democratic rules and market stability we've relied on for decades go out the window. And suddenly—no voting.”

Someone whispered off-camera, “That’s extreme, Warren.”

Buffett fired back instantly, leaning into the microphone. “So is canceling democracy just to keep yourself out of a jail cell. You think a man staring down handcuffs is gonna play by the book? You think he’s worried about the 'proper' way to do things when his back is against the wall?”

The camera zoomed closer, capturing the raw concern on the billionaire's face. “Watch him,” Warren warned, his tone dark and haunting. “He ain't tryin’ to win a fair election anymore. He’s tryin’ to erase the need for one. And if folks keep pretendin’ this is some impossible 'dystopian movie' plot, they’ll wake up one day with soldiers in the streets and their fundamental freedom—and their prosperity—gone.”

The silence afterward was louder than any shareholders' meeting he had ever addressed. The truth behind the headline is far more complicated than anyone expected: https://ifeg.info/2026/07/07/a-viral-political-warning-raises-bigger-questions-about-markets-democracy-and-public-trust/
