Who cares

Really. Who cares. This is what America wants. Stop fighting it. It's easier if you just let it happen.
Not going to fight the will of America.

People voted or didn't vote and this has happened.
I dont like it but I'm more than happy to give those that voted or didn't vote the apoplectic hellscape they desperately desire.

"Does it hurt?"
"It's as easy as falling asleep"

....the proverbial "Red Pill or Blue Pill" to use The Matrix analogy.

For many people, the soma of wandering thorough life while asleep is all they know and all they want. For them, they may never realize the enchanted spell they're existing in. It's hard to watch sometimes.

Fortunately, for many others they choose to shake themselves out of their reverie and accept the challenges of life... fully awake and attentive despite all the often uncomfortable or even frightening realities of actually being engaged in living life. These are the people who can help build a better world.

Hopefully, enough people in our country choose to awaken and fight the darkness descending upon us.

Ask anyone from anywhere else.

Americans' inner Nazi has been set loose.

This is who we really are.

If there were a just god, there would be no Americans.

on what's happening around them. Hopefully, this is not the case with the Trump regime, but I have to admit sometimes I wonder. Will it take the masses living in a dystopian society for them to wake up, but then it might be far too late.

Some are in such a deep slumber it will take a magnitude 10 quake to shake them out of their stupor.
