(27,735 posts)they do not like small "d" democracy, and the do not like it being a republic.
Since the time of the "revolution" they have been nothing more than lackeys for business, (they are TORIES , which means fascists republicans) why do you think they went after the colonists, they supported the expansion of the British Empire and the power, if you think otherwise, go back and look again.
And in Britain today the fascist Tories won there battle of installing hate and fear-----------that is a economic fact.
They have always been in this country for themselves to make lots of money and they had indentured servants and then they expanded it to slaves (black, Indigenous People, whites) they didn't care, they did not give a rats ass.
Britain was a fucking oligarchy back in the day, and the fascist republican party today is nothing more than TORIES of that period, and they hate that they lost a "revolution" against a bunch of misfits with help from the French.
And ever since, someway, somehow, they have and now to the present shit hole that is about to envelope this country, they have succeeded in there mission-------------to fuck everyone, and do it by a rule in the Constitution because some jerks back in the day didn't "trust" the voters to make the right decision------------------we are screwed.
WE are the only country on the planet that does not give the VOTE of the majority voters to the winner to lead a country!!!!!!!
This happy HS that some how these people are going to see some divine right way of "patriotism" to save us all from a authoritarian, fascist, serial predator, megalomaniac, narcissistic, right wing racist, bigot and a LIAR, is laughable, they don't care about the light, and somehow they will not let this go through is a bunch of BS-------------------they don't care (some do) but the fucking majority don't fucking care-----------------it is about power, and its about greed and how to move up into positions of power and trample on people that get in the way, and its you and me ( the Koch's and other dark money with the help from a corrupt U.S. Supreme Court fucked everyone and this is the end result), always has been, since day one of this founding, and if anyone thinks its otherwise-------------sorry, it is not going to happen.
If these jerks were so concerned about the "welfare" of the republic, why don't they do a "national recount" with eyeballs on the ballots, that would show patriotism and trust in the system, it is not going to happen-------------they don't care, and it is about power and some fucking agenda set up by some oligarchy brothers and other hypocrites that are pissed off, that they had to abide by some rules, to have clean water, air, land to live. They believe that they are more powerful than a government of and for the people, they have empires, look no further than Exxon Mobil, that use to be called Standard Oil---------and just for enlightenment read Private Empire by Steven Coll, or another book by him Ghost Wars, Private Empire should be placed into evidence in the confirmation hearing of Rex Tillerson, it pretty much show how there is an empire within this country that thinks that they basically are not beholden to the government to play by rules
This country had been set up that somehow and someway, we were always better, it was the unspoken word, that everything would turn out right, the institutional and economics entities would protect us and do whats right------------------really.
The first clue is to look at what this country did with the Indigenous People--------------it was and is a map on how this country operates from day one, and how they treat land, water, air, and human beings, everything was a lie.
From day one since this species has walked on this planet, it has always been survival of the fittest and to conquer the weak and in some cases destroy, and if you think differently, sorry I can't help
And in the end of 2016 the fascists made it work for them and they BS'ed there way to the top with a lot of help
So to all the readers of this rant--------------we are basically fucked. And if anyone thinks that the Ryan Ayn Rand Republicans and the Mitch McConnell fascist are not going to hurt anyone, all one has to do is go back and look at that town hall meeting that Bernie Sanders had this week and look at the show and see what "stupid" is and when he told them they were lied too before the bells went off in there heads--------------some of them finally got it, and they don't know what they are going to do, they are in a panic mode, just like everyone else, and hoping that it isn't so--------------------
