38. I Do Apologize
Thu Jan 13, 2022, 01:08 PM
Jan 2022

I hate being rude or abrasive, but all of these wonderful things being posted are giving a false belief that there is accountability and justice. Rather, it is apparent there is not, and the pessimistic view wins out the vast majority of the time. And not just a majority of the time, but a VAST majority.

Honestly, I believed from the beginning that he would end up playing in the tournament. Douchebag that he is. The little details of his Douchieness that have come out, never dissuaded me from thinking that he would get his way, and those who find him reprehensible, would be left feeling dejected and taken advantage of.

And here we are. Sad to say the reality is that if you are special, you can act like the biggest Asshole if you feel like it.

But the media will still keep that positive spin out there, to make everybody think that THIS TIME will be different. It won't, and the path of disappointment will win out the VAST majority of the time, for those of us who long for decency and accountability.
