On a recent Facebook post I created regarding Pres. Biden’s political announcement that he would not be seeking re-election, I noticed a comment from someone that raised my eyebrow. It went exactly like this: A military state financier from our tax dollars, a pharma advocate delivering lies and and a general puppet to globalism dismantling safety and stability within this country to obscure insight and resistance. The right is playing the same game through different vernacular. All we have to do is look at the funding of JP Morgan and Thiel behind the picks. We are gonna have to be a little more critical in thinking otherwise it’s just gonna be worse. Corporate globalist level communism and transhumanism makes Lenin look like chicken s**t. And I lived in that Marxist mess for a while. After I read it, I realized I was very confused. To even begin to understand what it was that the person was actually saying, I thought to myself, I’d have to either be a whole lot more informed than I am on these kinds of things... OR… I’d have to be walking that razor-thin tightrope between doctor prescribed micro-dosing and full on Jim-Morrison-in-the-desert-at-night-ing. That isn’t to say that I’m making fun of the commenter or disagreeing with what they were saying either. It’s just to point out that I have this gut feeling that a lot of politics and agendas and blah, blah, blah goes over a lot of people’s heads. Including mine. I work hard. I’m blue collar, kind of book nerdy, and pretty familiar with many parts of both world and US history. I have always voted according to what I think would best benefit us as a nation not hellbent on throwing other people to the curb so we can benefit ourselves. If that’s being a snowflake or woke or an idiot or whatever/ I can accept that on the grounds that I feel lucky and happy to be able to make up my own mind. But when it comes to expecting others to really have a super intense grasp of the behind-the-scenes ebbs and flows of what really drives politicians, I have to stop you mid-soliloquy and say this. No. We don’t need to know that. We don’t have time to know that. Hell, I’m not even sure that what you’re saying we should know is even actually the truth. You know, it probably isn’t, is my guess. Politically speaking, I need to speak my mind this once. I think it’s okay to want to vote for candidates that wish to make life a little better for everyone and not just ultra rich powerful c***s and their dirt poor shoe-licking disciples. Even if just below the shiny surface they really don’t want to do good for all, it’s like this. If you THINK they do and you BELIEVE that they do, then what else is there really? I think that personal satisfaction is enough of a requisite to earn a fellow human being’s vote. Listen. I don’t know who funds JP Morgan. In full disclosure, I don’t even know who JP Morgan is. Is he a Tik Tok guy? Is he the father of Bit Coin? (I also don’t know what bit coin is. Oh boy.) Either way, I don’t care. I’m not reveling in ignorance either. I’m simply pushing back against your definition of it, homie. Hard.
