IN THE THROES OF POLITICAL REVOLUTION
As I watch Downton Abbey, and relish the story of long forgotten times in history, and read a book about Russian lives in their midst of change after the time of Tsars; caused me to think of the grief of my own country in 2016. Bernie Sanders made it clear that the young people are rising up in a political revolution, and I realized by his words that this isn't just about the next presidential election! This is about defeating our "old" country and turning it into something that many white crosses testify--was what they died to prevent! This election is about the undercurrent of Socialism doing away with Capitalism and what people believe is nothing but rich against the poor. It is similar to the peasants clamoring the walls of palaces in France and Russia to break down all the "old ways" and grant a better life to the working poor!
The only problem with this revolution, is that it is not about the WORKING poor! The working poor are struggling from payday to payday and do not have the benefits of the rich or the 'non-working poor'! The backs supporting both the upper and lower classes are breaking and Socialism is the added weight to topple the scale altogether! Who is going to support all these free programs? They say the rich will do it! The rich will not just hand it over as they believe, they will cut their losses by cutting employees and anything to retain their bottom line. That will put more people out of work and on the 'free' programs. Does anyone read history at all? Therein lies the issue, education and propaganda are not the same things! People are led like sheep to slaughter in more ways than one in our world...some don't even realize they've been taken.
While I once advocated for feminism, and I do still agree that women should have rights and equal pay for the same job...all the continuous rights through the decades have made us a decadent society. We are the most narcissistic, opinionated, demanding, and depraved generation with all our technologies and learned experiences. If everything loses it boundaries, the overflow will result in a flood--and all will be lost. Decency, couthe, respect, proper language and stations have been altered by filthy free-for-alls who seem to relish in making our great nation a tarnished piece of rubbish...and the world an ocean of vulgar creatures. There is no sense, no responsibility, no accountability, no line between decency and disgrace. Soon there will be no purpose for anything, for any reason...and then will step into their thrones the hidden shepherds that took the sheep so far from pasture and safety. The cries of bleating mammals will fill the air. The wolves have cornered them all with the lies of 'change'! Those white crosses adorn the graves of those whose blood tried to save the sheep...there won't be courageous left to stand up. Those crying for change, won't spill any blood but will submit because they have been enslaved long ago and didn't realize it. They cry "we the people" but they are not the people who work nor the ones who grant charity to their brother! They are the ones who sit at home lazily blaming everyone else that they didn't get up and go to school and show respect to their teachers or their elders--they are not the ones who worked at jobs beneath them at a lower wage and managed! They are NOT the ones who have given in charity but have stolen, joined violent gangs, entered the thug life of drugs and every sort of evil...they have no need to share with another...they take and demand. This is not Socialism. It is a new type of society not experienced by any generation before.
We the People had better wake up, black or white or brown or Oriental...rich or poor...our world is about to change for a difference no man has known. There have been dictatorships, empires, democracies, republics, Communism, Socialism--but this new 'age' is one that has never been! None of the people are going to like where it will leave us! What pains me most is that no one seems to see it coming...God help us! Oh...even He is rendered a useless figment of our imagination...well who else can we call upon? Therein lies the problem...it sure isn't "We the People" as we are not as such anymore...are we?
