Voltaire: “Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.”

John Stuart Mill: “I did not mean that Conservatives are generally stupid; I meant, that stupid persons are generally conservative.”

H.L. Mencken: “Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.”

The fact that a thoroughly corrupt and incompetent cretin like Donald Trump got 77 million votes is more than enough evidence that this country is in big, BIG trouble.

The civilized world looks on in horror as Trump’s devotees espouse their outrageous, demonic views to the global media, further solidifying in the minds of our former allies that a large segment of this country is hopelessly insane.

But really, nothing will change until Americans accept the fact that white people are the problem. More specifically: the world would be a far better place if it wasn’t run by a bunch of amoral rich white men.

So now, on top of everything else, we’ve got a genuine constitutional crisis on our hands: an illegitimate Despot who refuses to bow to the will of the people. This is exactly what all those historians and constitutional lawyers warned us about in the run up to the 2024 “election,” and The Despot made his intentions clear – even though few believed it possible at the time.

There is nothing normal about this situation!

Playing “nice” with the GOP will never work. These are vicious, bloodthirsty demons who will stop at nothing to further The Agenda.

This bizarre situation is the result of decades of deliberate dumbing down of the populace in the media and lack of a decent public education system. The broken public education system in America has certainly done its job churning out mindless robots while the mainstream media (MSM) has completed its mission of entrancing and infantilizing the public with trivial bullshit 24/7.

Trump’s supporters don’t care that he’s thoroughly corrupt, incompetent, in way over his head, or that his indifference has contributed to the deaths of thousands of innocent people. They don’t give a shit that he gives support and comfort to white supremacists and neo-Nazis.

They have no clue that our standing in the world has hit rock bottom. They don’t care about any of that. To them, the most important thing is that Trump hurts as many people as possible. As long as he keeps punishing poor people, that’s all that matters.

Trump’s supporters are happy if he attacks minorities, Immigrants, students, “liberals,” smart people, women: that, to them, is more important than absolutely anything else.

Trumpanzees belong to some sort of unevolved subspecies, where normal cognitive abilities are simply not present. To assume otherwise would be negligent. They exist in a delusional bubble, listening only to the echo chamber of their death cult beliefs. Until they come around there’s no negotiating with them, because they have zero interest in acting in good faith.

We are witnessing a mass collective hypnotic trance that most of these human zombies will never recover from. They are a danger to themselves and everyone else, and it will certainly get worse when Trump is eventually dragged out of the White house kicking and screaming.

Or whatever.
