Many Americans I know say that they are not interested in politics at all, they despise it, they just want to live their lives in peace and prosperity and care for their families. Like the proverbial ostrich hiding its head in the sand, they hope that they will be safe, while their bodies and necks are fully exposed to the elements. Hiding in the shifting sand, “protected” by bureaucrats and political hacks who only have their own interests in mind, is a dangerous proposition.
Except, as a
wise man said long time ago, politics have a way of finding us and taking a
keen interest in everything we do. Politics is life and life is littered with
the rubbish of politics in every aspect. Long gone and long dead politicians
still affect our lives daily in so many ways, whether we realize it or not.
“One of the
penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you wind up being governed
by your inferiors,” said Plato. All you have to do to verify this statement is
look at who occupies political office, school boards, mayors’ offices, governors’
seats, and Congress – it is quite a collection of certainly not the best specimens
society has to offer, to put it politely, with a few exceptions but those don’t
last too long because they are too smart and too honest to remain in office forever,
say four decades or more like some infamous current politicians.
No matter
how hard one tries, nobody can hide from the politics of the two main parties,
of the Marxist politics of the Democrat Party turned self-describing
socialists, with their full support of “peaceful protests” and riots of BLM and
ANTIFA.
People
cannot refuse to wear the much politicized and draconian Democrat governors’ mandated
masks that allegedly “protect” others from the Covid-19 virus until the virus
is “gone,” an impossible scenario. There are serious consequences for refusing
compliance to the political face mask dictates. Gubernatorial orders and
societal reprimand trump peoples’ rights who have a need to breathe for various
medical reasons.
You cannot
escape the leftist political mainstream media, their lies, the brainwashing of
our children in public schools, academia, and Hollywood. The overt insults and
threats by the left towards our President keep coming like Noah’s flood, a deluge of hate towards a man who wants to
improve the lot of every American, safeguarding our borders and everything that
defines who we are as Americans.
Every day
there is another mainstream media political setup, lies, and hit jobs on our
President and his supporters. So-called journalists eat, sleep, breathe, and
stew in their hatred, ugliness, disrespect, and insults for our President. He
gave up a billionaire’s lifestyle in exchange for a $400,000 salary which he
gives away, to be demonized and harassed non-stop by the left which the MSM
represents.
The mainstream
media is so corrupt and deceitful that they make the Soviet Pravda
(Truth) and other communist papers like Scinteia (The Flame) look like
high school newspapers cobbled by teenagers.
Never had a
President been so maligned by the media, their sycophants, and half of leftist
America; he has been called a clown, racist, homophobe, anti-immigrants, liar,
loser, and even told to shut up by leftists from all walks of life, the media,
and even by former VP Joe Biden during the first presidential debate which was,
in itself, another leftist set up to diminish and insult our President.
Yet our President,
despite the setbacks by states closing down economies, destruction of small and
mid-size businesses to the benefit of large corporations, destruction of our
stellar medical care, and the large unemployment rate due to forced closures,
the largest transfer of wealth from small business America to big business
America, the economy is still better than the economy that former President Obama
and his VP Joe Biden presided over for eight years.
The state
media hit show called presidential debate was formatted in such a way to
highlight Joe Biden’s scripted rhetoric and blatant fabrications. The moderator
became the third debater against the President. By some counts, he allegedly
interrupted Biden about 15 times and President Trump about 76 times.
Questions
were asked of Trump based on media’s round the clock dezinformatsiya campaign,
gotcha-moments followed by swift attacks, smirks, laughter, and name-calling
from Biden and the moderator.
It was the
most indecorous and unprecedented presidential debate on record. The disrespect
on display for our President by both the moderator and Joe Biden was
embarrassing and painful to watch. It would not have happened anywhere else in
the world except here, in the “intolerant” America.
B. Jarrell
wrote, “President Trump knows a passive approach doesn’t work with Democrats.
On stage was a President who has been lied about continuously for at least four
years, a 47-year career political hypocrite, and a biased and deceptive
Democrat moderator.”
As a very wise friend said, what happened to our lives in the last four years and last
night during the debate was political “violent deconstruction of reality”
theater. It has happened before in the former Soviet Union at the turn of the 20th
century and in all its soviet satellites. It took almost a century to get rid
of the disastrous effects of the Marxist politics, Marxist philosophy, and the
brainwashed generations of followers who suffered and died unnecessarily under
the boot of the centralized Communist Party.
In the U.S.,
there are so many dangerous alligators and other political creatures circling
this administration in the proverbial D.C. swamp, that it is hard to fathom
that the political deep marsh will ever be cleaned for good and truth, sanity,
and normalcy re-established.
Great article Ileana. Great message for those who are indifferent. Keep up the good work.
