Vol.XVIII • No.XXI
Manchester, N.H.
An interesting question even as we wrap this series up with Part 3. Why DO activists do what they do – especially those whose “voluntary careers” span years, if not decades?
It’s sometimes a thankless and vilified “job,” especially if you are ruffling the feathers of those who wish to be left alone in the dusty and dim corners of Government. In fact, it was GraniteGrok’s early mantra that said, “We bring Big Flashlights” to those Dark Corners (too bad that the other ‘Grok founder decided to move towards those corners, but flipping is oft seen – it is easy to get coerced by Power, influence, and money).
And that’s what Ken and Tom, via the Government Integrity Project, have been doing, with elections and voting being a forte of theirs (oh, and investigating budgetary sleight of hand).
You can tell that they enjoy it – sometimes, immensely. However, one should never take their jocular manner to mean that they shy away from a fight that must be done. Those smiles are still there, but the meaning behind those smiles changes radically if you catch my drift.
Anyways, the final install of this series – Part 3:
!function(r,u,m,b,l,e){r._Rumble=b,r[b]||(r[b]=function(){(r[b]._=r[b]._||[]).push(arguments);if(r[b]._.length==1){l=u.createElement(m),e=u.getElementsByTagName(m)[0],l.async=1,l.src="https://rumble.com/embedJS/u359331"+(arguments[1].video?'.'+arguments[1].video:'')+"/?url="+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+"&args="+encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify([].slice.apply(arguments))),e.parentNode.insertBefore(l,e)}})}(window, document, "script", "Rumble");
Rumble("play", {"video":"v4u4tle","div":"rumble_v4u4tle"});
Perhaps I should do this more often with other activists. If you think so, throw out some names in the Comment section!
