It really is a case of projection, isn’t it?
This reminded me of all the Republican rallying cries against “cancel culture” around removing monuments to not-that-great men and people refusing to spend time on sites whose core values they disagreed with.
And now we’ve moved to these same people removing any reference to actual heroes of history if they happen to have not been successful white heterosexual men.
Cancel culture indeed.
Projection, false equivalencies, strawmen, and plain old lying.
Trump supporters are racist garbage and billionaires who stand to gain from the clown show. What is the confusing part?
We "got here" because the vast majority of Americans are de facto sovereign citizens. They care only for the job, the commute, and coughing up a hundred bucks for the RED star on the THIRD black stripe on little Aislynne's tae kwon do white belt.
They care for self-medicating with cheap beer and TV after a shitty day at the office. And they feel that their overpriced stucco box in the far suburbs is a fortress, competing not cooperating with everyone else in every other fortress.
Here is what Americans do NOT care about. They're so wrapped up in themselves, they couldn't give a shit about what kind of society we're going to be. And so the most evil among us were allowed to seize power, fully by attrition.
'Evil triumphs when good men sit out the fucking election, signalling their good virtue.' - Churchill or something like that.
