Adding my two cents to the chorus

I was all up for breaking down Project 2025 (which is already being implemented thanks to SCOTUS’ supremacy), House Speaker Mike Johnson’s entrenched anti-abortion stance (which is spreading across the country), and the absurdity of Biden stepping back, considering he’s been the most remarkable and effective president in recent decades.

But then I remembered how impotently small my readership is in today’s easily-published-easily-non-read digital world and realized that Joe has twice the energy at 81 that I have at 71.

No way could I pull off the intense reposting and repurposing and reiterating campaign that would get my words noticed, much less read, by more than maybe seven or eight new readers.

And as Kevin Roberts has made clear, Project 2025 is no game; it’s a detailed plan to dismantle our government and replace it with a system built on conservative policies.

Except… that’s a lie. The people behind America’s Second Revolution are not conservatives. They’re throwbacks, proud Southern Aristocracy descendants who always maintained that White men were/are superior to Black men… who have continuously held they are endowed with this supremacy by their made-in-their-own-image god… and who, by word and deed, have proven (to their own satisfaction) that women of all races and creeds were/are created for their manly pleasure and procreation.

Hardly a new stance, is it, considering worker and breeder subservience were “cherished institutions” and the “accepted way of life” long before biblical times. The world was built by slaves for the comfort of the elite; women have been sold and traded in early childhood since time immemorial. The rationale never changed over the past 300,000 years, just the name of the prevailing god. The monarch’s bearing, the emperor’s posture, the pharaoh’s carriage; it’s been the norm always, everywhere—

… until that first week of July, 1776 in Philadelphia’s Quaker haven.

Not even a full 250 years.

So it’s hardly surprising that our great experiment has run into a new effort to push social evolution back to the good ‘ol days of the bad ‘ol days.

And for just that reason, onaccounta time doth not flow backward, I’m putting my hard-earned pennies on evolution.

I know, I know—the regressionists promise to cause pain and suffering if’n we don’t just knuckle under like good little workers and breeders.

No rational person wants it, but I imagine blood will likely be spilled here and there—despite Kevin Robert’s assurance that we’re “in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be.”[1]

We, the people—ALL the people—will fight to preserve our republic and to push evermore further toward an equal, equitable future.

Which is not to say that those who suckle at the divine-justification tit will cease to exist. Cannot happen in our sans-one-sided-coin dimension. The haters and the greedy and the fearmongers will always crop up at, historically, eighty-year intervals to break the peace and try our patience… not to mention our patriotism.

So in case you only get your news from mainstream sources and are therefore non-aware of the actual we-the-people’s voice swelling up from every corner of this here United States of America, here’s the irrefutable truth of the 2024 election.

• Not voting supports Trump.

• Voting for a third-party candidate supports Trump.

• Voting for anyone other than Biden supports Trump.

It’s not right… it shouldn’t be… but it is fact.

This election is not about our right to hunt deer or how much it costs to fill our tank or solar and wind power versus coal and fossil fuels.

 It’s not about who’s older or who poops their pants or who stutters.

It’s absatively, 100 percent, no-wiggle-room about we, the people, getting out the blue vote so there will be a free and open election, with a peaceful transfer of power—in  2028.

‘Cause we all know it sure ain’t gonna happen this go-around.
