And yesterday’s gone
American
MAGA-land
is locked in
a Groundhog Day
with no context
no history
no memory
of anything
that went before.
Strange way to live.
Rat kings
When times are
out of joint, and
people sense that
democracy
can be trumped,
fascists emerge
from under rocks,
from dark alleys,
from the woodwork,
from mum’s basements,
sniffing the air,
noses twitching,
ready for new
opportunities.
Rupert Murdoch’s America
USA was once
an amalgam of
Thomas Jefferson’s
America, and of
Abraham Lincoln’s
America, and of
John F Kennedy’s
America.
USA is
becoming an
amalgam of
Adolf Hitler’s
Germany, and
the Taliban’s
Afghanistan,
and of Atwood’s
Gilead
System failure
Capitalism
is the best
system for
making a small
number of
people very rich.
Slavery
is the
second best.
Value of nothing
Politicians
and journalists
always demand to
know, and then
reject, the cost of
measures to conserve
the environment.
But neither ever
ask the cost
of war.
Acerbus et indignus
Whenever war
is declared,
whichever countries
are involved,
you will find,
making the
announcement,
a clown, backed
by his followers –
all hard-faced men
who intend to
do well out of it.
Side effect
Who would have
thought that a
major effect of
global warming
would be a
decrease in the
intelligence of
politicians?
Quacks like a duck
There were racist
Presidents before Trump,
and there will be racist
Presidents after Trump,
but I think we can
safely say there
has never been
and never will be
a President as
racist as Trump.
That would explain it
Is Donald Trump
speaking
in tongues?
