Trying times for the good people of the world...
It's been a long time sense I posted anything. I had been busy trying to find ways to enact change, prepare for the worst, and stave off a tidal wave of embarrassment, anger, and some depression. I decided that it would be good to return, and post more. I hate to say it, but a lot of my writing moving forward might have a political flavor, for that I apologize in advance.
I do not say this light hearted, I do not say it because it has not been said before, or because I am prone to "hysteria" as that vapid ugly bald-ass incel Steven Miller would say. What I write about today I write out of extreme concern, not just the people in the U.S., the good people who denounce what is happening, but I write this out of concern the whole world. We aren't the only players on this board, we never have been, and we share this pale blue dot with a host of diversity, all forms of it. Handing the keys to the U.S. over to these people put the whole world in jeopardy.
I will be blunt:
America is fighting for it's political soul right now, the most wretched kind of people have taken over our system of government and seek to shape it to their liking- that of hate, fear, and oppression. The cheats, the lairs, the cons, the racists and the malignant minions of MAGA. In other words, the people that typically seek power for the sake of having it rather than using it to change things for good. Rotten to the core. A bunch of greedy fucking billionaires and the white supremacists who are hell bent on subjugation of anyone who is different- spiritually, sexually, politically, racially, disadvantaged, etc. and Ad-nauseum.
We all know who I am talking about: Mr. and Mrs. FElon (The MuskRat), the nepo-babies , and all the staff. I call them Inept-a-twats (collectively).
These white Christian nationalists and their bed partners seek to leave an empty hole where our country once stood strong. Their list is quite long at this point, the "accomplishments" of the 47. From burning down department after department to a pointless and unwarranted trade war with everyone we used to have good standing with.
Needless to say, I will still be calling the "Gulf of Mexico" by it's true name, "The Gulf of Fucking Mexico". Which it has been called since Mexico was named Mexico.
Keep in mind, while you read this, there are millions of us who never wanted this, never asked for it, didn't vote for this, and warned the other half that this would happen. Please don't hold us accountable for the Maggots and their Magidiot children. The like the dead flesh and bull-shit, we don't.
Of course, there is some onus here, and some admission. This happened because we, the proverbial we, were lazy with our watchful eye. The sad truth is that this didn't just happen because a few bad actors were able to usurp our democratic process, this happened because we didn't vote, we didn't participate, we didn't get involved in our communities. We didn't put our foot down before it got this far. This has been planned for decades, and when it was published, as "Project 2025", so few of us took the time to read it. Even fewer of us took the time to look back through history and identify what was happening.
I did read parts of it, and it's scared the crap out of me. People got sick of hearing it from me before the election, I didn't stop. I was really disappointed to wake up on election morning and see that some how that tangerine asshole had swayed ALL of the swing states (I am not a conspiracy nut, but I have my doubts about that). I won't get into that, what's done, is done. Project 2025 has become a nightmare for all of us rational people here in the states.
However, this is, er was, a democracy, and unfortunately, democracy also means among the freedoms we have is the freedom to give away our rights and privileges. And it appears that's just what we are now doing. We let these people continue to do the things they are doing. A hundred and fifty years ago, these people would be hanging out on the front lawn- they would have been declared traitors. But times have changed, and they are going to get worse if they brakes don't get pushed ASAP.
Now for the good news. People are starting to mobilize. They are started to hit these people where it hurts. Take FElon Musk, his overvalued stocks have fallen by $135,000,000,000.00 dollars (I wrote that out to illustrate it's size). And that makes me happy, it seems his loss is equaling that of the damage he has done to the governmental agencies he has shuttered. Karma, pure and simple. And the best part is that he doesn't even realize that he is the fall-guy when the people with "pitch-forks" and "torches" are standing on the white house lawn. I look forward to him going broke and having to go into hiding.
Thank god for the judicial system. I am actually proud of them. They have held off this assault for this long, which surprises me in a good way. I even have some faith in the court that was appointed by the douche-bag in chief himself. Thanks to them, he has lost time after time, and maybe somehow they can continue to hold off the the wave of stupidity for as long as it takes to right the ship.
And although the democrats are doing what they do best, waiting and seeing what happens, bending the knee, and having spines of fucking jelly, there are some of them that are actually doing something. We do have a fair amount of them who have broken away from the party and are seeking to actually fix things. It was a happy surprise to see Mr. Sanders at Coachella. I really didn't expect that. I think as it gets warmer and warmer we will see more and more of this kind of thing. Over 600,000 people came out to stand up for democracy a couple of weekends ago, and I think that's only the beginning.
The downside to these people is they not only have a playbook in "Project 2025" they have Hitler's playbook, which they are following as close as they can. From the attacking the free-press to acts of exclusion and disappearing people.
Looking for hope,
Resilient as fuck.
