an informal war on everybody not like themselves. It's been going on for decades and now their piss fucking poor attitude and voting history has negative implications for the entire world.
We are heading for climate calamity and they sit with their fingers in their ears, hands over their eyes telling us it doesn't exist. Economically the entire world is struggling outside the very top few of us and they tell us that we need even more of an imbalance to fix it.
My brown brothers and sisters of every stripe and ilk are being put before the cart to pave the roads for the trump voters sickening misanthropic idea of utopia and here you are to tell me that we need to understand them. I understand them alright and I understand you quite well.
I get that you are probably white and upset that 4 out of 10 people related to you give absolutely two shits about anything you give a damn about. Further more there is a good chance they hate your ass for not walking the line of stupidity, hate and bigotry with them. I know they might be near and dear but fuck them all the same.
Their decision was made and by and large they are sticking with it. Why the hell don't they take a minute out of their day to consider why MOST people don't agree with them or just how hurtful their decisions are??
We don't have the time to let them unwind 6 decades of voting insanity at their own pace anymore. We don't have time to let them unpack the who's, what's and why's of their generational need to hate "the other". We don't have the time to dissect their irrational fears of everything. We don't have the time because we are circling the drain right now.
What I know and you should know is that they are willing to let everything fall to ash to sate their insanity. This far and not one fucking bit farther is what everybody not insane should be feeling, saying and acting upon today and forever forward.
