On the White Trashification of America
I identified "his diaperness" as an agent of chaos during his first term. Old friends and family disagreed, some so vehemently that we are no longer friends. With others, the topic must be avoided like the plague. Minds are made up. Some have had the foresight to at least admit that they see the malice. but, sadly, are quiet about it. Most seem afraid to speak out.
So: project 2025 is working.
Before the advent of this segment of America, I was blissfully naive, thinking the average person was basically well intentioned. I have changed in these last years, and still suspect there are more good people than bad in our country... but feel that the average human may not be good hearted. The status quo for liberal and progressive Americans will no longer work. If reasonable, somewhat educated citzens do not get their ample butts to the polls this fall, our country becomes an oligarchy and we become like tenant farmers, on the hook for everything - health care, groceries, clean, poison free air and water, truthful news and commentary, everything. Everything we do, where we go, write and SAY, is well on the way to being surveilled and stored. Our generation was remiss in not seeing this germinating like a horrid weed, and our leaders were blind. Biden should have spent the last year of his presidency creating a plan and educating us regarding what was coming - and how to fight it. The oligarchs had the absolute balls to publish their plan, project 2025. We had it in our hands. There is still no unified front against this fascist oligarchy, so we remain like a vast disorganized army, allowing our way of life be to be inched away from us. The regime has their own private army. As Robert Reich writes, it is up to us.
Pick a leader, leaders that inspire you! Support them. Vote for them and their parties. It is time to forget "she is too liberal, or young, or he is a wimp vegan!" There is No Perfect Candidate. Start locally. You have to research candidates to see what party they represent now, especially conservatives, who hide this.
I warn you, at the top of my voice...look at your gas and grocery prices. This is not accidential. Look at the resurgence of previously defunct diseases like measles, having an incredible comeback. Why? Anti vaccine propaganda. Look at the choices in your grocery store! They have narrowed in the last 20 years, haven't they? Mostly all products of huge corporations now, driven by profits and shareholder value, laden with downright unhealthy ingredients. We are becoming a commodity for the very rich to control and squeeze like lemons for money. Meantime, they enjoy criminally low tax rates, and threaten to cut social security - which we have paid into all of our working lives. They cut welfare programs for the needy. Worldwide! The lives of hundreds of thousand of children have been lost because the richest man in the World was allowed to stop food allotments. To poor kids. America is now seen as a "bad" country internationally more than ever before. Most of us have no idea how many companies are pulling dollars from us monthly. Look at how you have to subscribe to damn near everything now to get streaming internet, or interesting content. This is not an accident, dear reader. Much of our police and military forces have been indoctrinated by fox news (TVs left on fox in all break or community rooms for years, in our military post graduate colleges, even now in our medical offices) Hence, are they going to help? Maybe at the general officer level.. maybe not.
Don't kid yourself. My guess is that our democracy is halfway gone. The prescription? Start with your vote! Where you spend your money. Whom you associate with. I recently found a local friend on social media, and was deeply saddened to see maga bullsit on his profile. No time to debate, people are not changing their values or character. Bye.
Join forces with like minded people. Sure, sign petitions! Go to meetings and marches. Support and donate to leaders that are still brave enough to fight and speak out. They are true American role models. Do you see it? The current top of government is infiltrated with bad human beings. People who have raped little girls and boys. Living victims have testified to this time and again. There is testimony of children being murdered. So much has been coming at us I believe we are in denial of the true evil here. When his diaperness dies, the man taking over is even worse, and, IMHO may be the true antichrist. Vote the old guard OUT, as they are the ones who failed to see this coming - even though they had the Goddamned plan a full year before fascists took office. Continuing to be complacent and stupid is akin to holding door of your home open to a team of burglars and killers that are well organized and concerned only with the continued descent of America into oligarchic fascism. I beg you, wake up, stand up, and fight. The plan is to exhaust us with a constant onslaught of evil. It is working.
Do something. Write down your private battle plan. If we do not, the only option will be another war. Do you think I am going too far? Think again, my friend.
Think. Again.
