(No editing, one review through, raw… apologies probably for the grammar and… formatting… my attempt at satire while grieving.)
It’s all bullsh*t.
Let us be completely honest for a few minutes, okay? Great, thanks…
The entire thing is utter and complete bullsh*t. From the top, down.
Children in America having to go through 3 levels of security in their high schools, and are still at significant threat of being in a gun violence situation, in order to receive increasingly substandard education, conditioned by religious legislation, and the dwindling desire for our teachers to continue their jobs for so little money or safety… sure, yeah…ok that wasn’t what I imagined the world would look like when I was younger…
OUR GOVERNMENT, sucking on the tit of their richest donors, all the while legitimately thinking of our children as pawns, if we are lucky - if they think about the American people, at all.
But wait, the absolutely like totally galling part?
……..“DADDY, WAIT, NO NOT YOU… WE HAVE THE MONEY… WAIT… PROMISE!!! WE’VE GOT BOMBS FOR GAZA!!!!” Is what I think our government said when Israel held whatever intel they have over the spineless crumbled backs of our ‘leaders’ and said “we’re waiting.”
The issue is that this isn’t even the second, or third election cycle IN MY LIFE… where it’s 'unprecedented.’ I almost yearn for the days of the precedent that was being set - was that a black man got enough donor money to convince racist American people that racism was truly a thing of the past.
Now our precedent is ‘red lines’ that are never tripped over, because they aren’t verbally defined let alone written literally anywhere, even though the whole entire f*cking WORLD can witness the outcome of your foreign policy decisions… like, does our government get that? They no longer can hide behind the LACK of visibility that people have.
That Zucky boy made the world a little itsy bitsy too big huh?
Now we are stuck witnessing our government embarrass itself on global news, while we get to watch our ‘leaders’ lie, cry, and pout because they have to put on the performance of their liiiiiiivveeeeessss… *imagine a high pitched falsetto here, thanks*
Our entire government, is in a very toxic relationship with the tiny strip of land, that has been in an active state of ongoing brutal colonization for somewhere between 76 to 100+ years… with the broad majority of those years, with our hands on the dollars, ever the Empire Daddy, to our colonizing sibling. (England, we see the beasts you create, can you stop? kthxbyeeeeee…)
They get to act like they don’t have any control, so that their little colonizer baby country, can stay on the middle east land, because we are so addicted to the taste of oil baron feces, that we can’t fathom a world where perhaps… just maybe, we could try NOT COMMITTING GENOCIDE AND OTHER CRIMES OF WAR FOR OIL AND PROFITS THAT ARE KILLING OUR WORLD IN THE LONG TERM AND OUR PEOPLE IN THE SHORT TERM??????
Has that been a thought yet? Far be it from out leaders to have thoughts that aren’t soaked in green and envy.
The answer is yes, they’ve thought about it, and discarded that thought because they would have to stop playing their games of ‘who is richer’ while staring at screens associated to numbers, while massaging their privates and hoping that the next big number they hit will actually make them feel something…
Why even lie at this point? The farce is incredibly f*cking stupid, walk with me here:
There is legitimate evidence from hundreds if not thousands of Palestinian people, PRE OCTOBER 2023, my God… evidence that is PRE ME BEING ALIVE.
There are thousands of Gazawi reporters, citizens, civilians…innocents… that are recording the apocalypse that they are having to survive.
The West Bank has literal settlements INSIDE of ITS BORDERS, and have for literally years AFTER ISREAL ‘PROMISED’ TO ALLOW THAT TO BE PALESTINIAN TERRITORY.
There are millions more American’s today that are seeing our names, our government money, to fund the bombs and weaponry that Israel is using on innocent people.
Our American people are choosing food or gas, electricity or water, two jobs or three, and in the spare few minutes that we take from our ongoing act of survival, we flip open screens that show us mass murder, decapitated toddlers, bombs falling from skies on babies in tents dying of starvation…
I don’t know about you, but when I was a kid thinking about the shape of the future, it didn’t have this much bloodshed, certainly not this much raw unnecessary heartache.
The government gets on global news, and says, “Israel will investigate itself’. As if we haven’t all been children once. ‘you need to go to your room and think about what you did!’
Yeah… totally mom.
Our gas prices are soaring, our healthcare system on the brink of collapse, our wages in a 20+ year stagnation cycle, our children traumatized by the entire world they are bearing witness to, while going to schools that can no longer be guaranteed to protect them let alone education them… food prices are hitting fun levels of ‘do i get a carb this week or a protein?"‘, and my favorite… our incredibly callous treatment to the Covid pandemic that we ignored, effectively leaving a virus on this planet that could’ve been eradicated… for ‘Money…money….monnnaaayyy’ - some rich exec somewhere… im sure.
Nothing makes sense any more… other than the truth, it’s all bullsh*t, from the top on down…
But don’t worry, kids… the myth of ‘lesser of two evils’ isn’t even that it means both sides are evil… it’s that one is ‘lesser’ than the other!! see isn’t that all better now?
What I have come to learn is that there is no ‘lesser’ when the perspective you are dealt, shows you a living hell for you in some way, even if that way is different than mine.
With some that is economic destabilization.
Others it’s the promise of retirement.
Parents, it’s their children’s lives both now and later.
Yet others are just trying to get some medication for their diabetes, or access not just adequate, but good healthcare for their bodies in general.
Anyone remember Jan 6th? (I legitimately cannot be damned to remember the year at this point…) i can only remember where i was sitting when i had to watch an insurrection (i had to look up this word, in that moment) on tv, while hosting a board meeting where i got to listen to an insurance exec somewhere ask for us to research what the minimum they were required to cover for the cost of diabetic testing supplies…
we worked a whole day that day… and yes, before you ask, it was surreal then as much as it is to write that out and read it, now.
It isn’t just the Blue Maga for Genociden that we have to worry about; it’s the Magaroids that truly genuinely and devotedly love their (newly convicted) Orange Man, as well. (Don’t worry though, both sides are equally corrupt - anyone notice Genocidens sons most recent conviction?)
And yet, I get the illustrious honor of witnessing a man halfway around the world, hold a babies body up, and I get the PTSD of seeing a real body with a real missing head. No, I don’t think I need to watch movies anymore - there is nothing that CGI can create, that can war with the realities of the world that I have born witness too.
Because Thornton the 3rd from some family in hills in California by way of Germany at some point probably, can get a few more pretty numbers on his white board, to show off and maybe ‘one up’ one of his other billionaire daddy friends.
All because it makes money… and not even just that. But because it uses less money to make the money. Imagine if you were just ‘rich’ and the world worked a little better, and people even f*cking LIKED you… but instead you are rich and it doesn’t matter about the world, because you’re rich is the richiest rich that ever did rich.
But no, I get to see Palestine be turned from a veritable Holy Land of abundance, to blown up cement, and bodies… everywhere… limbs hanging off walls… babies hanging off walls… burned trees, and grass, and skin…
(And that doesn’t even account for Sudan and the DRC… which are going through their on Genocides that we are tangentially apart of because Big Daddy Business gets to decide that Slavery is okay, so long as they can hide it in the mines of Africa and send over missionaries to give the church something to continue colonizing.)
Thanks, please take it back. I want a refund.
I want a government that has a spine, and concern, and care… I don’t want this government… or any government that leads to this outcome…
Can I have something new please?
Vote for whoever the f*ck you want. I don’t care. But don’t pretend it isn’t wasting your vote when you are voting out of obligation, and not for even your own basic humanity.
Trump is just as bad as Biden. The world sees it through whatever lens they bring, and so those that love him… do so because they think Donald Trump actually does care.
What difference is that, than Joseph Robenette War Criminal Biden, who has a following that sees him, and think after everything that he still cares about them…
Or don’t vote, because that is also an ethical response, if not a moral one… (words out on what even is morality in 2024) when all of the context of this ‘war’ is religion that is hiding the subtext of this ‘genocide’ which is land, oil, and Empire Daddy growing.
Or vote third party, because hey… maybe just maybe they are going to do something good, or maybe they are a paid shill or a worthless leader…
…but is that any worse than we have now?
Just don’t look away.
…We promise… this is actually the last time. Next election will be different. We swear… guys… we promise!!! -
