This Country

 

This country is being run by a bunch of juvenile delinquents

a mass case of arrested development

a collective failure to grow up

a flood of fools forever blocked from reaching maturity

 

with any luck the dam will burst

and they’ll all rush downstream

like the swift action of a toilet flushing

Prophets

 

The existence of prophets is evidence of the nonexistence of God

if the word of God always comes second hand, then God is a coward

and that does not compute

 

for all of the prophets to be liars is not a hard thing to add up, however

JC

 

I must confess

I’ve pretty much had it with a lifetime of Jesus Christ

or even an evening

 

it does seem like he was a nice guy

an admirable guy

 

until he got all preachy

 

he and his buddies (the vanguard)

put on a pretty good show

and later the professionals really took it to the next levels

 

people really seem to go for that kind of shit

where things that are impossible are made to seem possible

 

and then there’s the trail of tears

Some notes on similarities between "far-right" people and Bolsheviks

 

As much as Fascists, what the so-called “far right” look like most of all are the Bolsheviks. Steve Bannon has compared himself to Lenin, which seems bizarre at first. These people share:

- rigid ideological positions

- justification of the ends over the means

- use of personalized attacks on opponents, demeaning name-calling

- a dehumanizing of their opponents

- a penchant for conspiracy theories

- a proclivity for projection; accusing their opponents of what they are doing or intend to do

- deliberate use of disinformation, trolling, gaslighting, and other forms of deception

- hyperbolic, even apocalyptic descriptions of the threats opponents pose

- attempts to impose minority views on the majority

- essentially undemocratic worldviews

- willingness to incite, tolerate, or use violence

- a cult of the personality

You may be able to add more. Pretty rotten stuff.

A fundamental thing

about this political project

- I will not put a name to it

 

is the flamboyant lifestyles

it’s driving influencers are all addicted to

 

Freedom

is saying

I can do whatever I want to do!

 

Greedy, narcissistic bastards

 

Of course, we all want to do whatever we want to do

everyone loves complete freedom

for however long

but they’re the only ones that really benefit from this project

 

for however long

Endless bickering

like children

fighting over toys

 

The human race doesn’t look good

not now

when all the signs point to cooperation

and there is little of that to be found

 

Fool that I am

I still hope
