Icon a reason be proud of this country

& when the truth eventually DOES come out about this rancid lot of autocrats and pudgy radio personalities with gavels and harrumphs and the power of the hijacked media, as too often it eventually does (thanx to certain filmmakers and other deep-digging creative sorts), the great goose-stepping masses with their yellowing teeth, yellow bumper ribbons and little flag pledge pins won’t learn from their history yet again:  No, you wingnuts will just follow whatever jingo jangle these masters of non-reality send up the flagpole, you’ll go on flipping the bird at your well-meant fellowman, & we’ll all have to suffer all your bullshit…all over again, …if there is still time & elbowroom to think for ourselves.

 

…don’t let the door hit you on the way out??  What?!  .The Declaration calls for just indignation when relevant; demands it, really, charges it to we, the people. So it is those who stand in responsiveness of the dispirited masses during these fetid (long train) times of abuses and usurpations who are truly the eyes and ears of this meaningful country of individuals and families.   & it is those who line-up to be counted in favor of absolute despotism, against those who rightfully wish to throw-off such government; you, yeah you, who truly are the un-American scourge, the false fucks claiming America, right or wrong, who are the hoi polloi front lines for tyranny and the eventual destruction of perfect beauty for sake of dollars and pecking order and the pack-o-lies that raise you up, and a wholly absurd lack of any real common sense.   & there are children being raised on these peccadilloes. Yikes! FUCKING yikes!

 

…if our forefathers thought the way you do (or don’t), there never would have been a Declaration of Independence...or a Constitution. 

 

But then I am absolutely convinced I’m waisting my time even bothering to mention….

 

Hallelujah…………………………

 

 

When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security. — Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states.

 

 

It’s NOT un-American to question the mainstream lies and thievery (thieves who live in ill repute for sake of cash wealth, gluttony, and a monster power trip).  No, it’s not un-American to question the mainstream that swims just like the whole of us in a lake of shit, but waves the banners and toots the horns for those who gladly take down an entire working/middle class of good people, purest Americans, & for sake of WHAT, really?  Some vile notions of pecking-order?  Boots, jeans and a flannel, …or an expensive gray suit with a red or blue tie…& an SUV?  WHAT?!.  Those who are pissed-off, both quietly or loudly, are truly the All-Americans.  There’s nothing MORE perfectly American.  Perfectly HUMAN.  Perfectly fucked by circumstances anymore. 

 

So while I hold the door open for you, why don’t you dawn your curly white Whig and long white robe and gavel (don’t forget your rifle that never saw a foreign shore) and make your own tracks to a land where they goose-step to fiddle music instead of throwing down with an all-creative, all inspired, all-American hootenanny celebration of liberty over tyranny & justice from chains, in honor & respect & a true deep kinda love of this beautiful sea to shining sea….

 

Did you ever see Grapes of Wrath?  We, the people were represented by the owner of the friendly family camp and farm, and the folks living at the friendly family camp and farm, who worked during the day and went to the dance at night to celebrate their basic inalienable liberties in the company of good people.  Your present government was represented by the goons (working for the local banker) who premeditatedly showed up in convertibles with baseball bats and a plan to insight a riot.  …A riot that would allow the police (waiting just around the corner) to amble up with the letter-of-the-law & haul all the cheap labor off to work-farms to work their asses for free, while closing up the friendly family camp and farm and putting a lien on the property.  The property which the banker would eventually foreclose on, pillaging the land from the well-meant land-owner (who refused to play ball) & his lovely wife and kids, and clearing up a stately new land acquisition where they’d build an annex to the work-farm. …So the process of hoarding 98% of the money made on the backs of indentured servants while criminalizing citizens (decent people just trying to make headway) can begin all over again.  Wise-up, bro, I know it in my heart you mean well. 

 

………yeah, right, right, no doubt in your eyes I’m the asshole…..

 

Oh well, so be it. 

 

 

& all that said, for Pete’s sake anyway, this isn’t to say that on the flipside of the coin, we aren’t being sold-out to the global highest bidder.  So likely we’re damned if we do AND damned of we don’t.  The proverbial rock and a hard place when those in power have all the Aces and all the Kings.
