When I go out in public, and everything just seems so normal. The world is just going on like nothing has happened. It is surreal. There's a movie, I've never seen it but heard of it, with the wrestler who was known as Rowdy Roddy Piper. "They Live" is maybe the title? But only he can see that there are hideous aliens living among us. They just look like regular humans to everyone else, and so they all just go about their day blissfully unaware that we're being taken over by aliens.
That's what I feel like since the election........ like i want to take every article i read every day and climb on top of a tall building and yell down at the people below "Are you seeing this??????????? Have you read this???????? Are you okay with this???????????"
I'm struck with this FURY thinking not of the MAGA loons, but of all those people who probably spent all of 5 minutes thinking about the election, because "All politicians are the same" and "i don't know anything about kamala, and he's a business man, and eggs" and went and voted for drumpf. And i bet none of those people can tell you a single person he's nominated for his cabinet, or what he said about groceries not coming down in price..... and when the country comes apart i'm sure they'll all say "this started under biden!"
But the country just goes on.......... full speed ahead.... right towards the iceberg that we've been told a THOUSAND TIMES is there but no one seems the least bit worried about it.
I told my wife (referencing the movie Titanitc) that there is no stopping the destruction to come. No one in drumpf's DOJ is going to enforce any laws he breaks, or those broken by his billionaire buddies that destroy every regulation on the books. It is too late to miss the iceberg. I told her "We are Jack and Rose, clinging to the railing, as the broken ship plunges into the ocean, and we can only hope we are some of the lucky ones that make it to a lifeboat and get rescued before we freeze."
But there is no getting out of this unharmed for everyone. People are going to die. People are going to needlessly suffer. People are going to lose jobs lose homes, lose their health, and lose their minds. And when it happens, they'll scratch their heads, dumbfounded, wondering what went wrong, or probably believing drumpf when he says this is biden's fault.
And the media is just treating this all in such a matter of fact fashion. It is just so surreal............
