Title: Politics 2025
Post by: Buster's Uncle on June 16, 2025, 04:29:07 AM

I don't much think there's a lot worth saying that isn't boringly obvious, fer realz.


Last time, he was fooling around at random whim w/o any plan, and the worst harm he did -leaving out the Treason and felony murder on his way out- was arguably the unknowable large number of people he killed screwing around about Covid.  I'm afraid I can't find an actual crime in that last, killing a few hundred thousand Americans, just incompetence.  -Elok wasn't entirely wrong, last time, notwithstanding a few Hundred Thousand Needless Deaths and a few Treason Murders.

I recall specifically saying to Momma, when he returned from his first G7, that I was relieved he had not embarrassed our nation internationally near so much as I had feared.

Well.

Project 2025 and all that since, four bitter years to prepare while somebody who wanted to pull on his big boy pants every morning and DO THE WORK actually acted as the actual POTUS, not just hogging the space so no one else could.

And there looks to be a plan this time.  And we are utterly humiliated before the world right out of the gate.  --And probably will still be for about a generation.  And the tank parade on Dear Leader's birthday seems to have hurts his feelings with a poor crowd turnout, emblematic of the death of a million cuts to which Liberty is systematically being subjected.

We are in Hell.  I don't wanna talk about it.

-HowEVER, I DO want to talk about stuff where his name doesn't come up constantly...

An observation:  I've spent most of my time for the last week since I finally got my life back re-reading old threads, and seen a few times where I got attacked ad hominem for trying to do my job as host w/ accusations of suppressing dissenting views.  Ho-freakin'-ho, considering one was from someone I'd encouraged to come in here because I disagreed with him.  Another had led off kicking me in the jimmies for throwing around the "Nazi"-word so much.  -Yeah; zero freakin' apology for being so angry at the police state turn this country took 24 years ago, and not being more tactful in its manifestation.  ZERO.-  (A third was someone being dim after I called them on manners.)

-The punchline?  I've yet to be attacked in any of a number of excellent conversations about religion we host, and I've been attacked way more -and pretty much as passionately- for somewhat loudly preferring Star Trek to all things misusing the name since Wrath of Khan.  WAY more.  I don't participate much in my own damn Star Trek thread in my own damn forum any more, what with all the impostor shows under discussion.  It's not a funny punchline.

I'm pondering a post about North Carolina's new Governor, w/ much comparing/contrasting him w/ his two immediate predecessors.  Still percolating, but probably soon...
