For Political Story Tellers

Dear journalists, investigative reporters, and supporters of strong and free democracy, When elective office candidates, from dog-catcher through UN CEO, claim to champion freedom, far more than all other candidates competitively left non-elite behind, Please ask, Freedom in which direction? Freedom to heal our fading cooperative, organically multicultural, complex ecosystemic, robust wealth climate, local through global networks? Or SuperElite freedom, threatening liberties to destroy alien, non-elite, resilient polycultural health? Or, more ambiguously, some of confusing both? And, if so, Which is freedom for loving polypathic cooperative health? And which are competing liberties to destroy WinWin future organic wealth? More LeftBrain autonomous deductive reductive monoculturing power to do as they egocentrically please? Or more RightBrain interdependent inductive inclusive polyculturing freedom to do as we ecocentrically co-invite long-term health-wealth cooperative resonant resilient eco-relationship? It never hurts to ask except when candidates don't even understand our questions, and often stopped listening for WinWin social-political opportunities so very long ago. When their price for milk involved sucking cooperatively provided EarthMother nutrients and not competing to buy patriarchal assets and xenophobic votes.
