So, it happened again, just in time to hurt the holiday season. A hateful person took an assault rifle and shot up a bar, a gay bar, a place designed to be a safe space for people who are not safe in a lot of places. He killed five, injured 18. Some of the patrons managed to take him down before he killed more people.
The hateful rhetoric needs to stop, but I don’t see that happening anytime soon. The Big Buffoon is running for president again and demonizing anyone he can along the way. And making tons of money doing it. Maybe he didn’t create the cesspool, but he sure made it bigger. And he’s making tons of money along the way. He made it okay for people to hate their neighbors instead of just leaving them the hell alone. And he made a ton of money while he did it. The lies about Jews, about LGBTQI+ people, about immigrants, about anyone who doesn’t fit some mold or other, are out of control. But, you know what? People, especially the Big Buffoon, are making a lot of money with those lies.
They send out their emails saying our country is ruined by… pick your group…hell, you may be next, so, see yourself there. And all the little buffoons send their money to the Big Buffoon so he can send more emails and go to rallies where everyone tells him how great he is.
I was heartened by the midterms more than I thought I’d be. The Big Lie lost everywhere, but not all the liars got tossed out. And now we will be subjected to endless foolishness in the House of Representatives, spreading more lies, more hate, so the Big Buffoon will look favorably on groveling little toadies.
I don’t know when it will end, if ever, but we can at least tone it down by not supporting and amplifying these buffoons. We’re supposed to be neighbors. Lets act like it. I do not care what you do in your personal life. Why should I? Why should you? Don’t like gay people, stay the f out of their bars.
No one, no one, is “running the world,” especially in this country. We do our own thing, until some nutball chases us down with an assault rifle. Really, people, tone it down. Just tone it down.
Until next week then… see ya,
Glory to Ukraine!
Glory to the Heroes!
