This was good, had some good points. Everyone should agree with at least a few. The things in bold I solidly agree with! And yes siree, that's why the last one is in red! I think in a lot of ways, as a society as a whole, we're fu**ed, scr**ed. These aren't all political problems. Some go much deeper than that, IMO.


This morning, I realized that everything is about to change. No matter how I vote, no matter what I say, lives are never going to be the same.

I have been confused by the hostility of family and friends. I look at people I have known all my life so hate-filled that they agree with opinions they would never express as their own. I think that I may well have entered the Twilight Zone.

You can't justify this insanity. We have become a nation that has lost its collective mind.

We see other countries going Socialist and collapsing, but it seems like a great plan to us. (to some anyway)

Somehow it’s un-American for the census to count how many Americans are in America.

People who say there is no such thing as gender are demanding a female President.

Universities that advocate equality, discriminate against Asian-Americans in favor of African-Americans.

Some people are held responsible for things that happened before they were born, and other people are not held responsible for what they are doing right now.

Criminals are caught-and-released to hurt more people, but stopping them is bad because it's a violation of THEIR rights.

People who have never owned slaves should pay slavery reparations to people who have never been slaves.

After legislating gender, if a dude pretends to be a woman, you are required to pretend with him.

It was cool for Joe Biden to "blackmail" the President of Ukraine, but it’s an impeachable offense if Donald Trump inquiries about it.

People who have never been to college should pay the debts of college students who took out huge loans for their degrees.

Immigrants with tuberculosis and polio are welcome, but you’d better be able to prove your dog is vaccinated. (not bolded, only because I'm too lazy to look up facts behind it)

Irish doctors and German engineers who want to immigrate to the US must go through a rigorous vetting process, but any illiterate gang-bangers who jump the southern fence are welcomed. (half anyway)

$5 billion for border security is too expensive, but $1.5 trillion for “free” health care is not.

If you cheat to get into college you go to prison, but if you cheat to get into the country you go to college for free.

And, pointing out all this hypocrisy somehow makes us "racists"!

Nothing makes sense anymore, no values, no morals, no civility and people are dying of a Chinese virus, but it is racist to refer to it as Chinese even though it began in China.

We are clearly living in an upside-down world where right is wrong and wrong is right, where moral is immoral and immoral is moral, where good is evil and evil is good, where killing murderers is wrong, but killing innocent babies is right.

Wake up America. The great unsinkable ship Titanic America has hit an iceberg, is taking on water and sinking fast.

This has been all over fb since last night.

This to me is justification for bad actors on both sides, just need to flip around a few things.

Basically, "of you feel differently, you don't care." Another suppression attempt in a sea full of them.

My wife and I are both confined to the CAVirginia Gov's reckless, unconstitutional, dizzy orders where all of the local news tv channels take pride in showing that ugly Photo of the CORONA VIRUS BUG that we're supposed to Fear, and Never question.

With that off my chest. We both find ourselves SO THANKFULL we are getting older, ignored, and must keep quiet to avoid all of the MISERABLE IGNORANCE around us.

It's fun being old, and having one-another while we wait to see what USED TO BE the country we Wrongly Believed Everyone Loved...go down the Washington Sludge Drain called the Swamp.

And thankfully. We are still aware of exactly WHO is responsible for the DEMISE taking place.

No more complaining. We're all stuck with the Ignorance, and Stupidity of the Pelosi fans like GABBY and PETEY (AOC).
Now, because I don't really care what anybody thinks about me. ALL OF THE SNOWFLAKE TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME victims of Perpetual Stupidity can just KISS MY A$$ !

Very well may be, and rhetoric - but doesn't change the fact that some is very true. And some more than others obviously.

Rhetoric in there, but most is just spot on. IMO, the things in bold above aren't even rhetoric, just head shaking facts about the current state of our nation.

My point beinmg nonbe of these has anything to do with 'over night' change; twitter changes; capitol riots; trump leaving; etc.

I agree of course! I didn't look at it that way as I got it in an email and it talked about the state of America, but that was it.

When I posted it, I didn't even give thought to twitter or the capitol events. Just the last decade or 2 and some observations.

For anyone I know, online or real life, friends and family political problems started with Obama. Now most are looking at real war.

I'm giving serious consideration to withdrawal from politics, news, and discussing any of it. Back to history readings.
