Max, you capture the importance not only of informing our populace but WHY the love for the land is so important -where will all be in 6 years. :"they are not only defending a mine; they are defending the process of assimilation. They are defending the conquest of an Earth-centered worldview by a profit-centered one." Why does it always have to be humans vs other living creatures? And why don't we see that? Your writing is superb, btw.
Another, applicable, Martin Luther King Jr. quote to add to yours:
Cowardice asks the question, "Is it safe?" Expediency asks the question, "Is it politic?" And Vanity comes along and asks the question, "Is it popular?" But Conscience asks the question, "Is it right?" And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must do it because Conscience tells him it is right. - Martin Luther King. Jr.
Powerful, compelling and full of truth, Max. Western culture has steered us far from reality at tremendous cost. The sickness of it isn't just reflected in our convulsing planet, but the psychosis, the mass shootings and the complete indifference to suffering. There are days when it's almost unbearable to continue in this mindless, meaningless artifice. I wish I could give you some great advice, but when you live in reality, there is no escaping it. The only thing to do when you roll out of bed in the morning is to try to open more eyes.

People Magazine is as good as any summary of vacuous culture. What's obvious to an outsider is invisible to most living in the matrix.

so important to see that racism is a secondary phenomenon... growing out of a worldview of domination based on greed...
