This is the New Normal

 Earlier this year, pundits like Bill Maher and other assholes kept saying that we needed Trump to succeed. You know, they were right. Right for all the wrong reasons, but right just the same. 

Whether Trump, in his addled mind realizes it or not, he is destroying democracy and the US at the behest of his billionaire backers. If a system that made so many men and corporations so disgustingly wealthy, so offends those wealthy persons that they want to destroy it, that system needs to be destroyed. Definitely. 

It's probably no longer about the money at this point. Oh, the thrill of becoming the world's first trillionaire is probably very real, but from what I see and read, penultimate control of the world is most likely the goal. You don't have to be weird to be rich, but you will become weird. Rich people have a lot of time on their hands. They sit around and think about what they deserve- aside from more money. What can they have- or do- that ordinary mortals cannot? Sex with children? Kill a hooker? Eh, things like that probably lose their luster rather quickly. The next goal is always world domination. Always. It's inhuman nature. A God complex, perhaps, but is it really when you've already realized there is no God, certainly not one who could do the things you do? 

So, social engineering it is. Make your perfect world. Now, that's not Trump. He still loves the money, but he is more revenge driven than his far more successful benefactors. The world laughs at him and knows he has a micro penis. They must pay for that. 

I believe I've heard Peter Theil described as some sort of evangelical Christian. Maybe, but more likely just a guy who realizes that religion is the opiate of the masses and still the best way of controlling those masses. If God did not exist it would be necessary to invent him and yada yada. The goal with religion is the same as any corporation. Monopoly. Free Markets are for losers. That's textbook capitalism. That won't get you anywhere at this point. 

Social engineering is where it's at, and where we are at now. I think it was JD Vance that said the quiet part aloud, that we have too many people in the US and need to get it down to a more manageable 150 million or so. Well, golly, how do you do that? There are 330+ million people here. That's some serious downsizing! You have to thin the herd though. Nobody said it would be pretty. Hitler, Stalin and a host of others knew that. These guys will follow suit. They always do. 

Personally, I'm counting on these guys fucking it up. They are not that smart. Nobody is. Real smart guys would not do this. It's a dumb idea. Very unnecessary. 

I'm thinking it needs to be done though. How else are we going to change the system that allowed these assholes to destroy it? Left to our own devices, we would defeat Trump and his goon bosses and go right back to politics as usual with two parties playing good cop/bad cop, fussing over whether to feed hungry children or not. That is what got us Trump. That is what got us here. Democrats love that shit. Republicans tired of it with Reagan. They are done pretending to care about Americans. They are the reason we can't have nice things and billionaires are the manifestation of that. We can never have republicans again. 

We need this cleansing, ugly as it will be. We need a fucking pedophile like Trump to do it because we never would have tried to fix the system ourselves. That's because, flawed as it was, it pretty much worked. Not for everybody, but we had democrats to try. We had republicans to thwart them, as if that were necessary, some sort of balance. That is despicable.

You are goddamned right we have to fight them. We have to get mean and we must fight dirty. Gotta make 'em pay. Gotta make them fucking earn it for once in their gilded, sadistic lives. Most of us won't make it. Life will be hard, but hard men and women will survive. And when the smoke clears, out of the ashes new leaders will stand. They won't be interested in starting over with two parties. They won't be interested in going back to *normal*. That normal was never any fucking good. It couldn't even satiate those that had it all.
