I understand, America: you're delusional. What's happening in the United States right now is fucking ridiculous. We have a president who is a total narcissist, a congress which is too scared to take action against an autocratic liar, and a general public which is too self-involved to notice the sucking vacuum of stupidity spreading like an STD across the United States of America.
As an educator, I am embarrassed. I try very hard to teach young people how to learn and engage in the world, but the world itself is a quagmire. Do I tell a 16-year-old person to remember literary terms, or do I try to impart a sense of civic responsibility? And shouldn't those two things work in tandem? Shouldn't we all know how to speak and listen and communicate, without imparting hatred based on partisan bullshit?
According to the current president of the great United States of America, we should go to a foreign adversary and (metaphorically) suck dick on an international stage. I am not a nationalist, but I am fundamentally embarrassed by Donald Trump essentially rolling over and taking it in the ass by a Russian KGB member. I mean, congratulations, Putin; you are the person I always thought you were. You're a mercenary. My problem is with the American public who takes DJ's treason and maintains that he is "improving" America.
Any president of these United States who praises a Russian killer, a North Korean idiot, and a Venezuelan murderer, while trashing our European allies is a fucking traitor. He has no interest in the lives of average Americans; he is trying to assert that his dick is bigger than everyone else's (something I very much doubt is true). He is a pushover, only interested in himself and his bank account.
There comes a line when I cannot support the politics of something called a 'democracy", which is anything but. I will not support this system of government, nor will I be a part of machinery which helps create more idiots who drink the Kool-Aid. People seem to be purposefully ignoring the fundamental bullshit which presents itself on TV every day. As a side-note, I cannot be a part of the machine which turns out under-informed, under-educated citizens every school year.
At some point, it has to stop. Who will step up?
