Today in
GOP COT World we are observing an abundance of Me>We fantasyland greed. I can get everything I want, you get nothing, and we can remain an efficient, effective, and strife free country. Or we beat you liberals into submission as we have our way with you and still remain a country. Or, I want my State to be it’s own country so (corrupt) conservatism or lying, cheating, psychotic fascist Trumpism can rule over it.
These attitudes coming from the Cult are decidedly anti-patriotic and anti-democratic, and unfortunately something will have to break. 70 million losers who voted for Trump appears to be too large a number to fix the problem, or am I being overly pessimistic?
When I think of patriotism I think of efforts for the common good. There is no such thing in the US today that’s a myth, except possibly coming from the Democrats.*
The country is split into tribal corporatism, tribal politics, and a large white privileged group that under Trump crosses economic lines. Breaking bad for Donnie has made for some very strange bed fellows. All of these tribes, none of them, or hardly any of them think of Country as having common goals such as lifting the masses up and improving the standard of living across the board. On the corporate front virtually all that concerns the CEOs, CFOs, stockholders is their $$$ piece of the pie. And the other people out there can go to hell as there is no theme of the Nation being a team where we mutually push each other in the right direction and are happy about doing so. It’s all about, Me, Mine and what are you going to try to take from me?
And Capitalism, might possibly be on its last legs. Let’s see if the war on socialism ever gets started and we end up with a revolution on our hands...
*Some of you will laugh, but I don’t care. When it comes to a political party that serves most of our citizens, the closest thing we have today, would be the Democrats. It is certainly not the Republicans emulating carpet baggers, and trying to legislate the real stealing of elections. Nor would it be the Trump
tear down DC and rob you blind in broad daylight faction. If you want sane or mostly sane
, you have to look left.
We are far from a functional country. There is a large portion of us (looking to the right) trying to dismantle the country as we talk about it. This is a historic time where some of us, depending on how long this takes, will watch the USA unravel, or careen to the edge and pull back. It’s careening right now. The Biden win was just a single battle in the war that’s not over for the soul of the Nation.
He's such a deep listener to science, he opted out of the vaccine too referring to the "low mortality rates". Forgot to consider that with his thoracic level paralysis probably a higher mortality rate applies to him. Not that this guy screams of a person who tends to make good decisions...
