I had more dreams, I did not record them, so now I only remember part of my last dream.
This dream took place in a conservative country somewhere in perhaps the Middle East / Asia at a motel where rich tourists often stayed at.
Each day, some motel employees would do a cleaning performance outside on the drains and the flower petal holders outside each motel room.

The YouTube video Why American Fascism Is On The Rise by the YouTube channel Second Thought.
Here is the description for this video:
It should be common knowledge that the troubling undercurrent of outright fascism has been becoming more and more mainstream over recent years.
With new fascist and neo-Nazi groups popping up all the time, and with their rhetoric becoming ever more grotesque and anti-human, I think it’s important we understand what’s going on.

Dream 1
This dream took place inside a large but narrow mall-like multi-purpose building, and among the various places inside it were The BP Library and a movie theater with a food stand along the hallway outside of it.
I was at work, at some point we had a family race through the building that also included my coworkers and I, and I remember a group of women with light-color skin being over the race; and maybe this race was a building-wide event and not just for the library, but I can not remember.
All that I can remember of this dream from last night is that it took place during the day in a slightly fictional version of the city of D, maybe the earlier parts of the dream took place at a fictional college-like area where I possibly saw my former male classmate SS, but I can not remember.
I just remember maybe walking downtown, and there was maybe a Christian conservative political gathering and/or political rally and/or meeting taking place in a fictional version of the area near where the farmer’s market should be.
