Trump needed to lose.
What looked like an abrupt end to the trump era could simply be the brutal prelude to a new American epoch...
Well here we are, it’s one of those times where I’m both glad and full of dread over being right; The kind of existential dread you get from realizing how you’re just a speck in an ocean of influence. A pawn in the grand game of Democratic Republic v3.33µ. There are some players with roles that confer them so much more power than you it’s dizzying.
4 years ago, around this time in 2017, I told a good friend something.
I do not know how he did it, but he does not have a winning strategy from this point. Either he sells his soul and we will never trust him again, or he doesn’t, and the establishment will chew and spit him out.
In fashion with the orange man’s abrupt arrival 4 cartoonish years ago, his loss at the final count this time around was inevitable. This loss however was inevitable in a different way. In a more familiar way if you will.
Do I even need to wonder if there were some Joe Biden articles pre-written for this year’s post election news cycle ? Do you ?
For some odd reason, you are allowed one way to exercise maximum power, you can vote… Or so they want you to think. You’d like to think so too, it’s better than nothing, but deep down you’re always skeptical. At least I know I am.
Why on earth would the person in power allow me some way to take that power away ?
This may be a silly question given the type of game we’re supposedly playing, but if I know one thing about power it’s the same thing you do. Power corrupts. So the answer is rather simple. Whoever is in power would not do so voluntarily, unless they thought they could manipulate it. At that point, it really just becomes ego boosting.
Pundits and news anchors in us mainstream media have been hard at work throughout 2020 trying to persuade us of the new official narrative. After 4 years of examining every way in which an election can be stolen, we are now asked to believe that this election could simply not have been stolen.
What is the most concerning is what those narrative builders have been up to for the past decade, and probably way longer. Of course this isn’t limited to TV news, the New York Times and the Washington Post are notoriously influential, though primarily on the left.
Well Jeff Bezos is facing calls for unionizing in his biggest company, Amazon. I might pity him if he wasn’t so evil about stopping them but that’s besides the point. If you’ve decided to believe the current official narrative, isn’t it odd that the owner of the Washington Post declares that one of the main points of doubt about the presidential election is 100% valid ?
The world’s largest online retailer said that a mail election raised the risk of fraud and the coercion of workers. It also said the process would depress turnout, arguing that as many as 29% of its more than 5,800 employees eligible to vote wouldn’t do so or would return incorrectly completed ballots.
I would laugh if this wasn’t all so predictable.
If a Washington Post or a New York Times can shape the views and opinions of millions of people on the “left”, what can a google or a facebook do with their bipartisan audience ?
The answer is quite scary. It is not an exaggeration to say that Internet giants like google and facebook can manipulate their users. They’ve admitted to doing so. No, this isn’t some right wing conspiracy about “Big Tech” tm, even Salon has reported on it. And what did the Zuck respond once people learned about it and were understandably creeped beyond belief ?
We carefully consider what research we do and have a strong internal review process. There is no unnecessary collection of people’s data in connection with these research initiatives and all data is stored securely.
See, it’s ok guys, they definitely won’t breach their contract with you since they don’t directly collect your data. They are just using it in Orwellian experiments to control your mind.
So, whether you believe in the official narrative or not…
And it’s not just random twitter users who have noticed.
Now I call their influence scary, but it’s only the newest iteration, or innovation if you will, on the information battleground. Ultimately I would not mind these things if these companies did not also pour tons of lobbying money into politicians of both aisles so they let them do blatantly illegal things. It’s not like I’m above this information ecosystem. I consume( and now create ) plenty of material that is designed to change minds and opinions.
It might be even scarier just how much money Mr Zuckerberg illegally poured into the completely free and fair election that had no shenanigans at all. Almost 420 Million greenies.
Now his preference this time around was for the blue party… but if you believe that has to do with political ideology, or that he’s the only one doing this, you must not have gone through the last 3 presidencies. His interest this time around had a lot more to do with, well, “protecting democracy” itself. As in, protecting the official narrative.
President Trump was not planned for the 45th season of the USAs nor did he then perform his role in the kabuki, he was therefore fired for season 46th.
People who are old and pay attention enough have noticed long ago that something was a bit iffy with the supposed two party system. Mainly the fact they never seemed to actually do anything different from one another. Lie your way to the throne, enact as many neo-liberal edicts as the supreme court will allow, let the next one take the seat. It doesn’t matter that more and more people hate both parties as long as the mainstream media and politicians keep up the kabuki theatre fight between red and blue.
And make no mistake, that is the only reason Trump actually won.
Before he burst onto the scene, apathy toward the political process was at an all time high in America. Everyone leans one way or the other, but most people realized both candidates were always shitty liars, and no real alternative existed.
Now one can reproach a lot of things to the orange man, but can one reproach him lying about campaign promises ?
Keep in mind I’m not asking whether he managed to keep them all, but is there a single thing you’d say he genuinely lied about ? He did try to get as much of the wall done as possible. He did take care of the Vets. He did bring in a tax reform that benefited the middle and lower classes.
Much of it is mostly popular with conservatives, but, he even kept promises that the people who believe themselves to be on the left should be happy about. And, really, in private conversations, I’ve heard many a bleeding heart lib admit how happy they are with him on those. But, suspiciously, the mainstream press pretends those aren’t historic. Given how hated trump seems, according to the narrative, these couldn’t have been huge issues for them… right ?
Well how about, not a single new war ?( and more peace deals than any before )
Okay, I guess he did go on the warpath with the media( I wonder why ), and war did use to be a really big issue on the left, but really right now, the focus is more on all this race stuff!
He can’t possibly have gained in every demographic except whites… or can he ?
Yes, Trump’s voters — and his mob — are disproportionately White, but one of the more unsettling exit-poll data points of the 2020 election was that a quarter to a third of Latino voters voted to reelect Trump.
In more normal times, you may see the left acting as it has so far. Propaganda and election year go hand in hand after all. But what do you when the supposed counter balance joins in the chorus ? It’s even more telling when the personalities on air themselves seem bewildered by their network’s top down decisions.
Fox News Senior Political Analyst Brit Hume also expressed some frustration against his own network during Tuesday night’s live coverage for refusing to make certain calls while also calling other uncertain, toss-up races such as Arizona early in the evening.
Do you see it now ?
I happen to think most of the race issues are artificially kept around for division. Good ol’ distraction for the masses so they don’t realize the division is always deeper between the wealthy and the poor. Though, at this point, they probably do realize it.
Joe Biden last week won 16% of the nation’s counties, but those counties account for 70% of nation’s economic activity, Brookings analysts report
I repeat, do you see it now ?
Joe Biden was pitched as “at least not lying as much as Trump”. Yea, they actually tried to pass off the old career politician whose family coincidentally got extremely rich off of foreign dealings once he became powerful as “the honest one”. They passed the author of the infamous crime bill as the racial healer. Nevermind the fact that even when he was vice president, he did not push his black president to pardon those poor souls.
Guess who did pardon them, and many others in similar situations. Guess who finally passed a criminal justice reform bill to help thousands more, something else Obama promised and never did. This doesn’t deter CNN though, after all he did say bad words in the process.
They also want Biden to undo the harm caused by Trump with his offensive rhetoric toward people of color
One thing I did not expect, is Biden’s ability to give people buyer’s remorse. It usually takes a few months. I guess he was really motivated what with 30 executive orders to signed in 3 days. Dictatorial abuse of power ? Of course not, we have the right old white dude now. It’s not like he would do anything to hurt his union base!
Or would he ?
Seriously, the jokes write themselves.
What used to be a tacit understanding that elections don’t really matter, and the general apathy that came from such a depressing realization got put to the test one last time.
In 2008, Obama promised us big change, a dream. He gave us more of the same.
In 2016, Trump promised us big change, a dream. The madman actually genuinely tried. For the first time in a long long time, the president was not hated by both parties. He was actually on track to be as popular as the guy he plagiarized a few campaign slogans from, Reagan. So why on earth would he be so despised by his own party members?
"All of them," Carlson said, referring to Republicans in the nation's capital. "You cannot overstate the degree to which Republicans in D.C. hate Donald Trump. I mean, they really hate him."
And the result ? 4 years of the most thorough smear campaign I have ever gotten the displeasure of witnessing.
I have to ask one last time. Do you see it now ?
Something or someone like a Trump was bound to win an election at some point. His subsequent loss would be just as predictable, and needed, to protect the narrative.
The other consequence is that people like me don’t have to feel crazy anymore for pointing it out. The mainstream narrative builders may continue to pretend, but too many people have gotten a taste something actually different. And with everyday that Biden keeps pouring more troops in the middle east, raising taxes and making America energy dependent on other countries, the resentment for the uniparty gets more palpable.
There are a few key moments and themes of these past 4 years which I’ve been itching to talk about with more people than myself and me, but that will have to be in subsequent pieces.
Plus, I’m sure the Biden regime will give me ample material to compare to the trump admin with. If the last 4 days have been any indication, this should be one bumpy ride.
The plan is working perfectly. When the military takes these fuckers out everyone will be United
