And if we live in a democracy
And you don't use your power to vote
Knowin' some would like to turn back the hands of time
Shame on us

Paul McCartney Song Aimed at ‘Mad Captain’ Donald Trump

Paul McCartney said his song Despite Repeated Warnings was aimed at U.S. President Donald Trump and other climate-change deniers in September 2018.

I love this song anyway, but after the election results it was especially poignant and powerful in helping me release the deep shock and emotional pain I felt.

Not a song but I think this quote from Michael fits here,

“In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. And in a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.”
― Michael Jackson

@MIST I LOVE your MJ quotes in your signature! When/where did he say these? Especially this one:
"How much did I really know about life on earth? What responsibility did I feel for creatures outside my little space?
How could I lead my life so that every cell of living matter was also benefited?" Michael Jackson

I love this! And, I was reminded today that his song, Heal the World, which matches the frequency of this quote, is also very fitting for the current affairs we're experiencing collectively. It was relevant when he wrote it and it still is now, sadly. But, how fortunate are we humans to be blessed with his words, inspiration and music to support our personal and collective healing.
