I saw this video of a guy showing how he does the two-card monte trick. Clearly my algorithm knows how to inspire me with loosely related metaphors when the time is right. As I watched this video fully knowing that a trick was being performed, it sparked a thought about what we’re currently seeing in the United States. The guy shows one card up, one card down, flips them over seemingly revealing another card, then he says, “pick what card I have behind my back”. Naturally, since he did it slowly, one would assume it was the visible card, but then he reveals it’s the other one. Now that the wool is fully pulled over, he slowly reveals the trick, and you wonder how you ever got caught slipping on this bullshit in the first place. That’s the key to a well performed trick, you don’t know how it is performed. However, with a poorly performed trick, the only ones that miss it are the easily fooled and people that want desperately to believe in magic in the first place. 

Yesterday (as of me writing this) Elon Musk called for judges that halted these clearly illegal assaults on our democracy to be impeached. The newly confirmed, not at all merit based, appointees of the various federal agencies are sending out memos saying DEI is evil and encouraging folks to report their co-workers if they believe them to be in a position they don’t deserve due to DEI. In addition to this, each passing day there is a new “oh shit” moment of something being dismantled, funding stopped, or access to extremely sensitive information is given to guys that may not have even lost their virginity yet. The unfortunate part is this isn’t a trick being explained; it is just being performed in plain sight which gives the illusion that there’s nothing foul going on. 

It’s getting dark out here!

Make no mistake about it, your eyes are not lying to you, this is a full-on assault to the Republic of the United States, and it has been made possible by the easily fooled and people that want to believe in magic. We can pretend it’s not, but that won’t end well. We can continue to fight it using the legal channels, but without control of the mechanisms of government that make things move, as in the treasury, even the senators and judges become powerless the more they concede power to these degenerates. The options are increasingly bleak from there because the next reasonable action is to fight the powers that are ruining our institutions. Don’t expect the easily fooled to be of assistance, they’re still falling for it. The ones that want to believe in magic are simply hoping for more chaos. 

There Actually Is A Bright Side!

Like many of the people reading this over the age of 35, I’ve watched a couple Bruce Lee movies in my day. I watched him go room to room and beat the dog shit out of 15 to 30 guys in each room, one by one. Apparently, each blow regardless of where it landed was a kill shot unless it was the toughest guy…then it became an actual fight. Now, with all due respect to Bruce…FUCK THAT! There’s no way that I’m going to watch 30 folks just like me get their ass whooped by our common foe, one at a time. That’s inefficient and dumb. If Bruce was in a room with 15 people like me that really wanted to do him dirty, he might knock out one or two, but he ain’t clearing the room and the two that got dropped are gonna stomp him when the smelling salts kick in. 

It is not in numbers, but in unity, that our great strength lies

Thomas Paine

This is a time for everyone with sense whether you’re, Black, Hispanic, White, Indian, Gay, straight or whatever to get on the same sheet of music and incorporate the Black National Anthem into the depths of your soul. That “Oh say can you see” joint is for the birds at this point, It’s time to lift every voice and sing! And I for damn sure don’t mean that literally, I mean it’s time to let our voices be heard in unison, loud and clear to let this regime know that it’s nothing good left for them. They’re not going to listen to the inner city solo, the trailer park solo, the suburban solo, the military solo, or whatever…but they have no choice but to hear the choir. 

Real Talk

The United States is far from perfect, the so-called founding fathers were on some bullshit in their personal lives, but the ideas intimated in those founding articles are easily the best thing they ever did in their lives. The preamble states the intent of it clearly “We The People” not we the government, we the senate, we the supreme court, we the billionaires…We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. Translation for the people in the back…this is OUR country, and the rules established were for the benefit of all of us. On paper at least, clearly they had some flaws with women and slavery back then, but you know what I mean. The government lost it’s way a long time ago and tricked the people into believing they were powerless, but it’s about time we realize that ain’t accurate.

The three branches of Government are equally weighted, the difference is that the Executive branch’s power is divided by 1, the judicial divided by 9 right now, and the legislative divided by like 535 people. Either way, all three have the ability to check each other collectively, but largely forgotten, and purposely omitted is the 4^thgroup, which is the people that put them in position in the first place. We have the collective power to take them out of position as well. It’s gonna take a while to fix this mess, but we the people have to start fixing it sooner than later before it becomes irreparable. In which case, we can link up offline about starting a community in another country.
