Who is really running the country? I think it’s safe to say that there is general worldwide agreement, unless you’ve been living under a rock, that it’s not the two jokers listed above. Such a sad and pathetic situation. Does anyone know who is calling the shots? I wish I did. The only thing I’m sure of, is that it’s some group of powerful elites with perhaps China and Silicon Valley thrown in the mix. The latter two working together, have far too much power and influence, as far as I’m concerned.
I feel so sad, as I see our country changing to this alarming degree; “the people”, US, the “common man”, seem to be losing any power or influence we might have once had; the Republic slipping away, along with our Constitution, our bedrock being disregarded like it’s a piece of irrelevant garbage. A sad day indeed.
We now have rampant fear and trust without question, with little or no skepticism. Something new and unfamiliar for this country.
It’s especially unsettling to see our younger generation caving like little programmed automatons dutifully wearing their masks. What happened to rebelling and questioning authority as a young person? I now feel like I’m one of the hippies in the 60s, not wearing my mask in rebellion, hoping for someone to say something. Hey, I’m ready!! I talk to strangers in line, especially the young ones, telling them to do their research and to look up the stats on Covid-19, to hear other scientists, another point of view. I tell them how Governors are taking unprecedented power, power they don’t have, using a vague and general sentence in the Patriot Act to take control. Emergency powers. Really!?!? They alone can’t make laws. That’s not how things are done in the United States of America!
We have a “mockery of an unduly elected President” unilaterally signing a “million” executive orders just as he pleases, following someone’s orders, and also taking power he doesn’t have!! And Trump was the dictator? Last I checked, we the people are supposed to be represented, part of the decision making, with the Government working FOR US, not taking orders from a little dictatorship. All a complete farce. Unbelievable!
What is the matter with everyone?!? I mean this literally, not in criticism. I feel like I’m watching a bad movie, futuristic and dystopian, like “Takeover of the United States of America”, “Where did Freedom Go?”, “Destruction of the Last Post of Freedom”, “Idiots in Office”. I could go on, but I’m depressing myself. It’s a neat trick trying to balance Reality with Optimism these days. But, I must say, I do feel optimistic. Not in a silly naive way. It’s hard to explain, but I’m not giving up! I still believe we can make a difference, each and every one of us! Big or small deeds. We can’t give up! WE HAVE A LOT TO LOSE! Our so, so precious and beautiful freedom is slipping away.
I often feel discouraged and helpless, like I’m facing a mega monster that I can’t see, like in the movie “Predator” but bigger. I think the Dems and “whoever” are overplaying their hand. They’re getting cocky! “We win, and there’s nothing you can do about it” attitude. I think there will be an unexpected backlash. They will be taken off guard, underestimating us. We’re smart AND we have guns! 😏 I like the analogy of Arnold wounding Predator, who is so focused on defeating him, blows himself up at the end. You never know :)!?! 🤯
I often feel encouraged by History, where there are unexpected outcomes and unexpected defeats; sometimes taking only a few to topple that “giant”. The monster CAN be wounded. Sometimes it doesn’t take much, or sometimes destruction comes from within, as they eventually are pitted against each other. Someone has to come out on top! 🧐 “Evil versus Evil”, destroying themselves in their lust for power and control!! Now that’s a movie I would watch, with lots of popcorn! 😁 Who exactly would be in charge after all is said and done? Have they thought this through? 🤨 Only a few can ultimately rule.
They are now trying to shut us down, using Big Tech and Communist tactics, straight from The Party itself (future article). Isn’t it lovely how they can work together in harmony, for now! 😏 These “monster elitists” with the help of the Communist Party, spend most of their time thinking of ways to keep the masses under control while remaining in power. They use subtle and not so subtle manipulation, often using fear as we are now seeing here in our own country. But then, who is the one who is truly afraid?!?
