We go way back, more than two weeks even. Its been a while though, Twitter cut me off from Daves tweets ages ago for some reason, and thats just one person I know they did that with; how many others, no clue. My Twitter followers, @AutomaticEarth, have been just below the same certain number for years. Regularly a few hundred are shaved off, and then they slowly revert back to just below that number. I dont even care anymore. No more than I care about Facebook shutting down our account without any explanation. Let them be. We should not depend on these people, thats just a bad idea. Anyway, so Dave was reacting to a mail I sent him of the October 26 Debt Rattle -hes always remained on one of my mailing lists- and thats how we started talking again. Dave: I have never spent a year so completely baffled by the world as this year. Nothing makes sense to me without invoking some seriously bizarre thinking (which I am not averse to doing.) My reaction: The game hasnt even started yet. Were still just warming up. Still, baseball is not the right analogy, thats a civilized sport, this will feel much more like gladiators in the Forum fighting to the death. Biden has neither the energy not the -killer- instinct for that. Yes, Dave, like Jim Kunstler, and like me, and many other people, have changed our views and positions on American politics quite a bit over the past 4-5 years. Mostly independently of each other. We just recognize the same patterns. I think its fair to say that we all realize that there may be a million things wrong with Donald Trump, but theres a lot more wrong with collusion to unseat a fairly elected president. nd that is what we all have faced. The FBI, and Robert Mueller, opening a years-long investigation based on a report that they already knew was fake, paid for by the DNC and Hillary campaign, relentlessly edged on by the -former- media sympathetic to that same campaign, and ending in absolute crickets, trying to save face by accusing Julian Assange and 13 Russians. We have reached whole new depths with Robert Mueller and Andrew Weissmann. So, yes, sure, we all feel a bit vindicated when it turns out that the collusion was not on the Trump side, but on the DNC one, and very much on the Biden familys one. That the DNC media refuse to report on that hardly matters anymore. Theyll have huge problems if Biden wins, because their day-to-day coverage has been based exclusively on Trump and scandal and intrigue for 5 years now, and they dont remember how they used to make money without that, with just reporting honestly on what is going on. Trump is their golden goose. What will they do, report on Joe hiding in the White House basement? Today, Joe slept only 12 hours! Truman Show. They will have even bigger problems if Trump wins, since that means his supporters will come after the entire DNC/FBI etc. cabal, including the media. Ive often said that Michael Flynn lawyer Sidney Powell will not be satisfied anymore with a full exoneration of her client, and her legal team is sure to have accumulated an entire library of fabricated media pieces against him on top of FBI and Judge Sullivan mishaps. And whatever side of politics, or even the law, youre on, and no matter who wins the election, the judicial system will still churn on. She wont stop, she wont wave a white flag, guaranteed. Trump must have offered Flynn a full exoneration many times, but every one of his refusals of the offers must have been more stern than the last one. And now, 6 days before the election, Facebooks Mark Zuckerberg, Twitters Jack Dorsey, and Googles Sundar Pichai testified in front of a congressional committee. While, from what Ive seen, half of US eligible voters have already cast their vote. 50% of the social media job is done. And no-one on Capitol Hill will dare touch them. Because they are the new arms and tools of US intelligence, and you dont mess with that. Trump wins, well see a huge increase in the violent street parties dressed up as peaceful protests weve become accustomed to over the past 6 months. Just last night, like its some kind of warning shot, things got way out of hand in New York and Philadelphia. Biden wins, the right wing will come looking for whats been taken away from them over the past 4 years, with the president they elected under constant investigation based on nothing other than party political gossip and thats putting it nicely. The Hunter and Joe Biden files that have been revealed so far give them ample reason to do just that. To get back to Collums Nothing makes sense to me without invoking some seriously bizarre thinking, I think we should all prepare for just that. Unless theres a landslide win for either side, which looks impossible, there doesnt seem to be any way to know who will win in six days, before the new year. While the peaceful protests rage on. And then we end up in the Supreme Court and Amy Handmaid Barrett casts the deciding vote. Thats not her fault, its everybody elses. Everything about American politics has gotten out of hand, on all sides of all aisles. We dont want the most qualified judges anymore, or the most qualified presidents, we instead want people in all these positions who agree with everything we think is right, which we know because our media has told us. Collum: I have never spent a year so completely baffled by the world as this year. My friend, youre in for a treat. Try 2021. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
