There are days that I wonder what will it take for people to |
|
finally pay attention?
I was laying in bed, and finally realized it. Nothing
People don't care.
They really don't
They will probably get it when finally all their "rights and Freedoms" are finally gone.
Not like they have many right now that they think they do, but that is another story.
This loss of rights has to be incontrovertible and undeniable... in a way that they cannot deny it
Examples of that would be...
Neighbors disappearing in the middle of the night, worst yet, a close friend or relative
Not being able to read certain books...
Having all the programing on Teevee controlled to such an extent that it will be hard to deny (Yes we know it is, but many can still refuse to see that)
Having a web that controls access to sites (may happen sooner than later, but you get the picture)
Having cameras all over the place, (already happening) to keep you safe, citizen
Internal Passports
Biometrics
Fake elections.
Then and only then many folks will realize what they have lost, and some will not realize it even then. Keep them fat and somewhat content... that is the motto
And when people finally realize it, well it will be too late.
At this point I am very close to just plain out giving up.. what we have is pure kabuki theater to keep the masses somewhat content.
Why? Folks we have events that have transpired in the last 12 hours that are a line in the sand... and yet... we still have folks going... give us time.
Time for what? Declare our fealty to the new Dictator?: We are already living in a dictartorship... that is the reality.
So perhaps it is time to turn my back on all of this, forget about voting (Diebold, caging lists, and other means decides anyhow and people are too scared to do anything with the power we supposedly gave them)
Perhaps it is time to just concern myself with my life, keeping mine and me safe (as much as can be done) batten down the hatches, and perhaps looking for a way out of this madhouse.
After all, who am I to judge? Folks born here don't care, so why should a naturalized citizen care?

1. Since you're here, you already know that's not true. |
|
We are moving with great deliberation toward an historic confrontation not of our choosing. This is planned provocation by the White House. They do it in the security of a treasonous Supreme Court which is disinterested in the US constitution. They do it knowing they kept the Democratic landslide from achieving a veto-proof majority by means so vile and illegal that telling the truth will put them in jail. We are working with enormous legal precision now. Because everything is at stake.
We work knowing the media is in fascist hands. We work knowing that impeachment and utter disgrace will not silence one single Republican lie. We pile on the evidence of obstruction.
Democracy is SLOW. It is agonizing. This government was set up to work ONLY by compromise. Everything must be discussed and negotiated. Every vote is the equal of the other.
Tyranny is SWIFT. Tyranny requires only one opinion, one vote, therefore action is instantaneous. We have become used to the speed of tyranny.
WE are functioning as a democracy. THEY are not. Everything they do is therefore so much quicker, it seems as if they are getting things done and we are not.
But that isn't true. And, in your exhausted, despondent heart, you know it isn't true. We are all here because we care, and because we are waiting, calling, writing, speaking out wherever we can. You know that. But it goes so slow, it almost seems as if it isn't happening. It is.

2. Should I share then my wonderful buzz off from Nancy |
|
Pelosi?
Or the we really should do nothing from some here
The crisis is here... and tonight it deepeened, and why I am starting to wonder if we let it go so far, that is no way back from Tyranny short off... in the course of human affairs...
I am still sending my letters tomorrow, and calling, too deep... but I have given all hope up

4. You're right. People don't care |
|
But, it's because the systems of control are so finely tuned. All one person can do is continue speaking the truth. To try and reach at least one person. But, no doubt, look after you and yours...
