Forever Furious
Life was really great for me prior til 2016. Things were ok for America, really. Then Trump comes along and totally fucks up this country. I saw this nation get propagandized, warped, divided and hate has boiled over. We’ve had riots due to injustice and lies, upon lies twisting and perverting people into rabid wing nuts, who became mainstream through the propagation of absolute lies and hate on Facebook. Most of these people ultimately have become anti democracy, which has been the epitome of the American experiment, the most important sovereign principle of this nation, the primary justification for American patriotism in this world.
We have people believing the big lie with zero evidence to back them other than their own warped bias causing severe deluded suspicions that result from being propagandized. We have people literally supporting fascism in this country or ignoring it because t suits their broader ideology anyways. It’s wholly anti American as well as evil, what these people have become.
Growing up I was living under old school conservative parents. Went to Catholic school and mass every day, was raised with disciple and my parents were certainly Republican. Over time I grew away from that after supporting many Republican policies and groups, and doing some grassroots things. I became independent because I really was, and always will be.
But what just under half this country has become has become unacceptable, so much that I disowned any Trump supporter who remained after the Jan 6th coup attempt. Yeah, a fucking coup attempt for Christs sake, in the fucking United States of America… attempted by the sitting ducking president. The unthinkable happened, for any conservative raised patriotic kid growing up in the 80’s and 90’s.. so now, my propagandized Republican family has been disowned, essentially they chose fascism and trump over their brother, Uncle, cousin, nephew.
The path these people have taken over the past five years ha shown to me finally, after decades of not understanding, how Hitler got so much support in Germany. Propaganda, lies, and hate are the reason… and people are growing up in a nation that this perversion is normalized in, a perversion of fascism, being accepted and fight for and ignored, in the United States of America of all places. The one country that knee would think this could never happen in, acceptance of its antithesis. AND IM FURIOUS ABOUT IT. I have no reserves defending my right to vote and have it counted here, if it requires force, and I understand the irony of that in the face of the Big lie, yet unfortunately this is the requirement of Poppers paradox, that we are required to be intolerant to intolerance .
Some of you out there are probably clueless to as to why I’m talking about, and that too is odd to me, that people look ok so apathetically, or not look at all… while the fascist trump is still their leading candidate in the next election, another coup and another big lie and maybe our right to vote or have our election not tampered with by these projecting republicans fascist trash is gone. When’s why’s gone, there’s no reason to think anyone has any other rights anymore. Furious, I am, and always will Be, at what these degenerate morons have done to the pride I had for this nation, my neighbors, my family.
