One of the worst things about all of what is going on is how predictable it all was and was going to be. I stay horrified yet numbed to an extent because none of it is a surprise. It's going just I as felt it would. I'm not calm. I'm not cool and collected fully but I'm not in a panic mode in the way I would have been if this had all been a surprise or shock. I think there is much to panic about I just can't muster the energy but feel my eyes widen as I scroll through the news and watch the broadcasts. The Wall Street channel all nervous yet staying a faux somewhat upbeat 'hey what's going on there with him, kind of out there, but he'll probably calm down, right?' Jimmy Kimmel was making jokes I was watching tonight but it seemed he was just running on empty. Nasty fucking government and nasty fucking people destroying the decent things about this place. It was all so predictable. Why did so many not see that? I'm not getting caught up in the protests, the fuck oligarchs tour, and the special elections because it feels too much to feel that there is some hope you know? Living through the protests in the first term, the Floyd, then the lack of them when Roe was overturned, and then the Free Palestine that didn't move the Democrats (yes I know that wasn't exactly the point the fight for liberation predates any of this) but Trump sure as fuck took the opportunity. I will always hate Biden for this and the Weekend at Biden's team and I dread Harris popping up in 2028. Then the horror and disappointment to say the least of Fetterman. I will say that that was not predictable. I looked through old tweets of others I saved from the midterms wins of 2022 and realized how unique each election cycle is and how stupid it is to believe that one thing will carry through two years from now and to just not get hopes up. We got the worst with Fetterman and even worse now with Oz whom is going to gut/trim/slim/slice and dice Medicare and Medicaid. He's more dangerous now than when he ran and has power! The worst of all worlds. RFK dismantling healthcare and services which was so predictable as well, seems like they are getting ready to try and figure out how to get the undesirables sent off to the wellness camps. 

I stay somewhat sane in this rot somehow. I wish there was something more hopeful on the horizon. Maybe something unpredictable will happen.

Some of the left has to be tougher than to complain about being caught up in the culture war, just a gift giving in to the right's framing. Like some did with "woke" back in the day, yes I remember. I remember thinking 'man some of you are being marks right now complaining that's going to come back to bite.' And some still didn't shut up when Mussolini in Florida had his Stop WOKE act. The culture war is real life! Those are peoples' real lives and are just as equal as the class war. They are interconnected! The right wing is a pursing intense attacks on certain people's existences and livelihoods, and when people try to brush off saying 'that's just the culture wars not real stuff' is not only extremely asinine but dangerous. Fatal to be honest. This is real life. Get some nutrients into your brain things are happening quick and you gotta be smarter than this. The fascists and their various bedfellows and collaborators are enacting a war on us. That the working class are not doing their own version of Jan. 6th in reaction to the richest Nazi in the world dismantling public services, goods, and jobs shows that people are too starstruck by wealth and power. Force fed to you 24/7 by all parts of our culture. Because if you're not dreaming of wealth or live in constant desperation of it every second of your life, are you even a real American? A huge problem I don't know how it's overcome no matter how nourished the mind is. I don't think this 'well people got to feel pain for them to get shaken out of it' waiting around is a good calculation at all however. 

NO OTHER LAND Accepts the Oscar for Documentary Feature Film

Amazing to watch this live because I was convinced it wouldn't happen. I even started crying. I recall back a year ago Glazer's hands shaking reading his speech and thinking his career will be over and the backlash letter calling him out a few days later and very few people supporting him. Wow, how the tides changed. All the people also clapping in the audience. Also calling out that the US is the one blocking the path of peace and people clapping?! My oh my. Another layer of the Zionist wall down. 

Forgive us for lying down and taking what's happening and what's coming.

Don't you feel so much rage and shame that most of us are all just sitting here and letting what is happening happen? That we are no heroes in any book anyone would care to read or any story that people will recall years from now and even those writings of heroic people and deeds will collect dust or disappear unattended, because no one would care to read anyway. The Democrats want to make sure you have amnesia for how they presented themselves in Trump's first term without having any majority branch of government. They want you to feel helpless because you are being punished that you didn't let them win the popular vote in 20 years. They want you to forget millions who voted for them in 2020 stayed home that would have changed the trajectory. 

They want you to forget what Biden campaigned on. They want you to think Kamala ran a super woke campaign because they themselves believe because she is a black woman that's what woke actually is, but the Dem consultants and players will never admit that. They want you to forget they supported and armed a genocidal nation for over a year (spoiler: the US themselves are a genocidal nation). They want you to believe Kamala was strong and commanding with her "most lethal fighting force in the world" schtick we got instead of bold concrete plans and visions. Oh and they want you to forget that they refused to let an Uncommitted Palestinian person speak at that same DNC. Also disregard how well Uncommitted did in the primary for such a short amount of time launched. Forget that the Dems snuffed away warnings about the Comstock Act because that was a scary downer. 

There's a lot they want you to forget and the ruling class always are aware they can bet on that being the case. How many Republicans were punished by not giving an extra Covid check? Many large swatches of the population don't care how bad the GOP are, they just don't care to pay attention. And there's no easy work around this depressing fact. Another depressing reality is I see swarms of commentators on Facebook defending the Democrats honor, and it's not only the Democratic Party that have learned nothing in the last almost decade it is some of their most vocal voters as well.

Now while Trump is giving the green light to destroy forests to enrich himself and others, the Democrat consultants recently met and schemed what to do next. Was it about being bold? No. Some bitching about the far left, blaming them when Kamala campaigned on nothing of the sort. They bitched about not wanting to take small donations anymore, obvious big power brokers will take it from here. Go to tailgates and gun shows to campaign, because that worked so well with Kerry, and Kamala letting you know she has a Glock she'll shoot you with. We're being death marched by both party professionals now and told to get in line or else. 

NO.
