A New Season of An Old Show

Doo-do-doo-do-doo-do-doo-do

Well, the new season of ’Twilight Zone’ is about to begin, and this time, it’s a serial story about a nation thrust into brutal fascism by a corrupt, conniving, lying and incredibly stupid evil-looking lump of a man with no scruples, no heart, and no brain.

Follow his zany antics as he alienates all of the civilized modern world and allies his country with its most hostile enemies in the sellout Deal of the Century.

Watch as he dismantles his society with culture wars to criminalize personal behavior and spreads fear-mongering lies to cover diverting spectacular amounts of money from the government to him and his friends.

This continuous performance art political farce will be ‘live-screamed’ daily on all social media.

Oh, but it’s not a TV show. I mean, it is, but it’s not, but it is and it isn’t, isn’t it?

This level of outright criminal corruption and grifting is beyond movies, TV shows, novels, comic books, satires, Mad Magazine, Dante’s Inferno, and past any stinging comedian’s barbs. The corruption, the callousness, the absurdity and the absolute stupidity is beyond literary embellishment.

It’s just plain the most fucking corrupt damn shit you ever saw.

To them, though, it is a TV show, because Trump gauges everything by how it plays on TV. He’s always aware of how he looks to any cameras present, although he seems totally unaware of how he actually looks.

He looks like a fucking clown.

He looks fucking corrupt.

Then, he speaks.

Oh, he’s batshit, stupid and a fucking corrupt clown.

Oh, great.

But, corruption itself is a many tentacled beast, and we have many more arms of very real corruption visible from the right. And, then, there’s perceived corruption- things you think are corrupt. And they claim many such perceived corruptions on the left.

For example, the right claims constantly that the Dems’ social media influencers are ‘corrupt’ because George Soros pays them to spread liberal propaganda. But, George Soros doesn’t pay anyone for any such thing. At least, my invoices haven’t been paid. And since the restraining order, I can’t go to the office anymore. But, I digress…..

Most of that propaganda that the liberals are accused of spreading is just reports on really stupid or criminal things Republicans have done, like, oh, say, trying to overturn the fucking election.

And, just to make sure we all know how absolutely lightly they take it, Trump and his estranged trophy wife have both released crypto coins the day before the inauguration.

I mean, it’s like setting up a booth on the sidewalk with a sign that says ‘pay bribes here- bitcoins welcome’.

We are going to have four full seasons of this nonsense.

Now, it’s become obvious to everyone that Trump is using ‘1984’ and ‘Idiocracy’ as manuals for governing. We’d say he’s using ‘Mein Kampf’ and the Communist Manifesto as well, as he’s more than doing a bunch of shit in both of them, but that would mean he was reading words and stuff and thinking and remembering shit and ow brain hurts gotta stop now get me another Diet Coke!

But, especially if you read any part of Project 2025 online, it’s clear that Christo-fascist autocracy is what they have in mind. We come immediately back to Wilhoit’s Law- in-groups protected by the law but not bound and out-groups bound by the law, but not protected.

This is the heart of it. Anything considered ‘liberal’ or ‘woke’ will be strictly bound. LGBTQs. Minorities, faiths outside of Christianity, climate and biological science, women’s rights and medical care, accurate history of America, especially the Civil War and slavery, and any mentions of systemic racism, now branded as ‘CRT’- Critical Race Theory.

In-groups will be the politicians and media influencers- those who keep the culture wars burning and divert attention from the klepto-kakistocracy- and, of course, the biggest in-group- the oligarchs making all the dough.

All fascist societies have worked this way and they have always, always led to violent abuse by the military and law enforcement.

Always.

Always!

How far will Republicans go to actually use violence as a political tool against Democrats?

I mean, their discourse is already flooded with the most vile descriptions of Democrats that a 12-year-old could imagine. They say- it’s a fact- they told me so- that Democrats are commie atheist Satanic (yes, both) baby eaters (remember that one?) who hate America and kittens and want to ban Jesus and I wish to God I was making that up.

The next step, per Adolph’s ‘How to Fuck Up Your Country For No Damn Good Reason’ plan, is the 1933 part- cementing power through manipulation of the system and taking control of the government, the media and the military, and they are right on schedule.

See, you get away with that shit by telling everyone about the ‘enemy’ you’re going to vanquish when you have all this power and at first they’re glad you have it, but, then it starts to hit them, and they realize the ‘enemy’ could be them.

The first enemies are always, of course, the opposing political parties.

They are all branded as evil, treasonous criminals who should be shot or in prison. And, under Hitler, they were, well, mostly just shot. His purges began early on, ‘cleansing’ the government of anyone even suspected of being disloyal to the Fuerher. He was already talking about his ‘living spaces’- Poland and Hungary.

Boom. 1939.

And so Trump, following true fascist form, is taking office as president completely indemnified from his criminal past, and already painting his opposition as evil that must be cleansed’ from ‘his’ system. And Republicans, like the Nazis, are locked-in behind him, goose-stepping us into a deadly historic rhyme.

And, this time, it won’t take 6 years ‘til the shit hits the fans. Tump’s Project 2025 plans on pulling this off in 180 days!

Yes, by July.

Will they follow their fascist inclinations, continuously creating and instilling hatred in the public for Democrats, eventually outlawing them and declaring them criminals, as Hitler did when he became Chancellor?

We are all going to find out.

The hard way.

Doo-do-doo-do.
