Bastards and thieves.

The American political divide has radicalized and stupified the entirety of the country. People of all creeds, from women-hating fascists to men-hating communists, all seemed to have chosen a side and hunkered down to defend their stances staunchly. It leaves little room for communication and unification, and that is exactly what this “bi-partisan” system was designed to do. The Red v. Blue narrative keeps people from connecting and discussing bigger issues; like the fact that billionaires consistently spend $0 on federal income taxes and we have to pay so much. 

     How about if you can even “own” a house? It is really more of a lifelong rental with never-ending bills and taxes meant to make you spend 3 times what it is worth in interest. The cards are stacked against us, and we still would rather fight with each other over ideological differences than unite over things we have in common. The middle class has gone the way of the dodo. It seems we are either upper class or living paycheck to paycheck, while refusing to accept that this is the new reality. They steal from us and then con us into defending them for it; it really is a systemic attack on the people by politicians practicing cronyism pretending to be moral, god-fearing for the people, American lobbyists. When the harsh reality is that the people they are for is themselves and the only thing they are lobbying for is foreign leadership, conglomerate expansion, and consumerist mentality. 

     The landrapers and swine have commandeered any hope of economic stability or social awareness. We are more divided than ever in the most modern of times. Consumerism and propaganda are at an all-time high, and common sense and factual evidence are at an all-time low. The greed-head expansionist ideology modern politicians embrace is harming our worldwide image as well as us as a society; the depreciation of our image is partly from decades worth of warring. But more recently, anything from racist tweets from our president to him authorizing choppers to abduct presidents from foreign nations seems to be the culprit. The nonsense we procure in recent headlines is shameful to say the least. We should be doing much more progressive things besides mocking South American dignitaries and stealing oil for the laughs or mocking past presidents for their skin color or ideology. We need to make America progressive again! 

     What happened to the cowboys and trailblazing renegades that defined generations past? Are we reduced to sue-happy businessmen and fickle politicians more corrupt than useful and more old than viable? Are we told what to think by propagandists disguised as news outlets? How about some overly religious sycophants manipulating people en masse? This narrative is leading us into a holy war rooted in fearmongering and misinformation. Most of our last names arrived here on a boat and were treated similarly, if not worse, than how we treat other minorities today; I think that is an actuality often overlooked by the modern American. The Germans, Irish, Jews, Italians all came here by modern standards illegally, as citizenship was not a requirement, and immigration was open; yet they were treated poorly and ostracized to the outer margins of society in the name of miniscule differences and fear with a heavy dash of ignorance. 

       To willingly and informatively choose to persecute another group of people in the modern age is ignorant and deplorable; or it is procured for the advancement of war upon that group of individuals.If the people are scared enough to support fighting the scary foreigners, then it is a go. Even if the whole world is saying they don’t think outside interference is what Iran needs, our POTUS feels it is his duty as a supporter of women’s rights and savior of freedom that he should bomb the country into submission and decimate schools in the name of freedom. Forget that we have been doing this since 1953 and that it never seems to stick and always reverts back after about a decade. Despite that, this time will be the one to set them straight. After 73 years of coup d’état and regime change, it’s going to end at the boot heel of Donald Trump. If he really wanted those people to be free and unrestricted, he wouldn’t be persecuting them as a group within the states. The man clearly uses whatever means necessary to validate whatever self-serving thing he wishes to do. 

     Just as the Democrats before him and the Republicans before them. He is not a special snowflake or a unique addition to the bi-partisan system. And the  industrialization of every square inch of America that they all brought to fruition will make us strictly reliant on Big Brother; it already has. No room to farm crops or have sustainable living, outsourcing everything to the state from housing to childcare to work doomed to be penned up and caged in. Like good obedient cattle, that’s how politicians view us and want us. The Donald is no exception; he is just another fat-cat tycoon lobbying for the remaining lakes and rivers to be toxic waste dumps, any and all forests chopped down and turned into housing or office buildings, and the remaining parks and scenic stopoffs to be gated off and drilled for oil. The horde of swine will devour all who oppose it, ass and elephant alike.
