one of these candidates is the standard for modern US politicans (warts and all)

the other is not fit for leadership, toxic and compromised

you either want stability or you want chaos.  

im not judging what individuals want, just hope they know the consequences of the chaos

November needs to be a blood bath or there will be blood in the streets. Zero doubt

November 4th to January 20th will be the most fragile/fraught times in modern American history

You do notice which side is spilling blood in riots, demonstrations, and in peace loving places like the Chaz in Seattle.  I am far more concerned from the left than the right if Trump is reelected.  I don't see a blood bath coming from the right if the dem candidate is elected, though could be triggered by a series of events, say evidence of election fraud.  I will say I am very happy to not live in a liberal city that is unwilling to maintain order, like Seattle and Minneapolis (early in the riots, much better when Walz took over). 

i see americans.  Pissed off at injustices.  i see opportunists taking advantage of moments.  I see PDs doing right and wrong. 

this pointing fingers thing constantly is a joke, no side is completely innocent, no side can claim purity.  Neither you nor I can claim it

If Biden wins, Trump says its rigged, foreign intereference (something he asked for last election), mail in ballots (something he has done, along with the VP, and numerous others) it will get ugly. 

Trump wins close (the only way he can win), the left will be enraged and questioning of election authenticity.  With a pretty heinous AG, you could see why

the only way it doesnt get to that point? Biden wins in a landslide.

Seems unlikely so . . . 

This country will be a powder keg unlike we have ever see. considering COVID will most likely still be in force across the US, civil unrest will continue to fester bc no PD reform will happen before then, and we will still have millions unemployed, poor/ sick/evicted and angry

Civil War 2.0 on the horizon.  Going to be interesting since one side has all the guns, while the other has the largest economies

Our political system is driven not by politicians but by
media corporations.


Trump is bombastic and divisive.  His words incite reactions.  That’s pretty unique, but his actions and policies
aren’t that out of line.  The primary difference
between the Trump presidency and previous presidencies is that the media and
large tech companies are in bed with the establishment politicians and biased
against any candidate who isn’t in their club, which includes any candidate
that gives a shit about the people.


Stablity
means “Don’t rock the boat, support establishment politicians, don’t expect any
real change”.


Real
Change means “Doing things that benefit the people and not the establishment, the
establishment will be fighting back tooth and nail as you reclaim your power
from them.” 


The media’s
job is to craft a reality for you.  If
you ever get close to shifting power from the elite back to the people, they
will try and convince you that the world is falling apart and that you
desperately want to go back to the safe bubble they’ve created for you, where
you never want to try and get out of the pen. 
You can see this when all the establishment candidates backed out at the
same time to fuck Bernie Sanders.  You
can see this when Hillary Clinton declares her fellow democrats to be Russian Assets.  You can see this in the huge media bias in
the Kavanaugh and Biden Sexual Assault allegations, where Kavanaugh was on TV
for weeks straight despite there not being any evidence to support her
allegations, while Tara Reade had multiple data points to support her
allegation yet no one wanted to talk about it. 
You can see it when Google accidentally made it impossible to find Tulsi
Gabberts website on the day when everyone was trying to search for her after
the first debate.  You can see it when
Twitter, Youtube and  Facebook are censoring
and demonetizing conservative and progressive liberals and independent media
creators.  You can see it when the politicians
“defund” the police to placate the left, but in a year, when the next black
male is murdered, and everyone puts the spotlight on it, we’ll find that
nothing has really changed.


I’m not
saying Trump is the answer, but you’ll have to be comfortable wading through
the bullshit to get to where we all want to go, because when you shake the
cage, they’re going to shake it back.
