"You could start this by practicing generosity, peacefulness, and empathy toward the political enemies that you caricature and make easy evil dunces with bad motives, not human beings."

Thanks for your comment. I disagree, obviously. I don't see the words you picked out of this piece as negating or being in opposition to being opposed to war, injustice, lies, attempted gaslighting, and the authoritarian or autocratic mindset. I think the times we're living in call for necessary truth-telling, however we see it.

"The New Now wants you to start by looking inside, and making friends with your own tender heart. Be open to new ideas. Become larger in spirit and in curiosity. Practice generosity. Shift our culture forward into the future. Help to create a place where our expansive natures have a place to breathe freely and become generous, peaceful, empathetic human beings." You could start this by practicing generosity, peacefulness, and empathy toward the political enemies that you caricature and make easy evil dunces with bad motives, not human beings.
