I'm curious who the left is going to prep for running in four years.
Its certainly going to be interesting.
This election was a giant rebuke of the mainstream media and wokeism.
Without the mainstream media, does the democrat party have a way to reach the masses?
Without wokeism and identity politics, do the democrats really have a platform?
For the better part of a decade, they have been completely obsessed with one man. And alienated over half the country in the process.
Hopefully they are realizing that the cross dresser story times in libraries, the endless barrage of racism accusations, and wide spread child abuse and anti-mental health treatments were way over the line.
Doubt it, though. They really have mindfucked their most fervent supporters to believe that Trump is going to institute tyranny.
Never mind the fact the democrats arrested people for not wearing gay little masks.
Or that Nancy went and got her hair did while all other businesses were shuttered.
Or Newsome hosting dinners while the people could not go see their dying parents.
Or the coercion, manipulation, and intimidation to get the vaxx.
Or the endless lies surrounding Corona.
Or the endorsement of violent mobs known as antifa and blm.
Or the endorsement of an invasion across the southern border, no doubt leading to foreign spies and possibly terrorist waltzing right on into the country.
Or the purging of the military of anyone willing to think for themselves and stand by their convictions.
Or engaging in a shadow war with a major nuclear power.
Or making us way more energy dependent.
Or making the green movement a pipeline of cash to their friends.
Or gaslighting the public to ignore their eyes about the mental and physical health of the president.
I mean, I could go on.
I don't like Trump...but at least we didn't have fags buttfucking in the senate with absolutely no repercussions during his last term. Completely moral bankruptcy.
I think, and pray, that we are going to have a cultural snap back over the next 4 years. I imagine it will be quite quick. That being said, we need to beware of the pendulum effect. We need to be aware that our fellow countryman is not our enemy, and has been preyed upon by a massive machine. Responses need to be tempered by logic and reason rather than populist emotion inflamed by desires of vengeance and retribution. Morals cannot be constitutionally legislated. But crazies have always existed. Its when the public airwaves became tools for extremists to expouse their fucked up ideals to the masses unopposed that we ended up with problems. Its when the IC was used as a weapon against the very people they are supposed to defend that we flirted with tyranny.
Lotta power has been consolidated...really since Jan 2020. Hopefully that consolidation is gutted and the tools used for that consolidation obliterated into dust.
But....both sides are still telling their followers to fight. No taking responsibility for their fucked up stances. No owning their authoritarianism and moral bankruptcy. Just more finger pointing at the other side and vitriol. That shit never ends well. And the people always pay the price.
