PEOPLE PEOPLE PEOPLE

  When this word is said repeatedly it is often an attempt to gain attention, to halt the noise of an audience, or often a plaint, a plea, to the people to pay attention. Hear and see what is going on and understand it for what it is. The truth is out there; one must be receptive to it. Or willfully blind to it. Choose.

Boebert and Greene were the objects of scorn and derision on SNL and well did they deserve it. They represent the current GOP, even as Lincoln sheds concrete tears as he sits in his giant chair. Worse than that, they represent the image of women as preferred by so many of the 'base' who shore up the current GOP - dumb broads, good for nothing other than to serve the purposes of men. Take the hits, take the scorn, far better than if men were put out there like that.

So SNL took them on, and guess what!? They did not like it. They were embarrassed, I guess, at how stupid they appeared to be as they fumbled answers and projected an awful image of themselves. "..people people people" as a response to gun control reveals just how dumb they are -and how dangerous they are. Their low level of intelligence should send waves of 'shock and awe' down the spine of all Americans for they represent the government, pass its laws, attack the Constitution, the very existence of America as The. United. States. Of. America. As we play limbo in a real-world situation, as we sit precariously on the crumbling edge of a cliff, their response is "people people people". A call to OUR attention - which we too often of late have ignored.

What have we been missing? Merely the disgust of the thinking world. One well known, well liked actor states that he is "tired of crazy news and a shocking lack of understanding in the world..."   Another piece of news that should shock us, but not really, as all could see this coming from miles away, we hear of secret talks of Manchin with GOP Senators. Hmpf! Anyone with half a brain knew that sooner or later, most likely sooner, Manchin would publicly state what he really is - a card carrying member of the GOP. Give it a bit more time.....

See, there is no more loyalty to principles, only to paths which will enhance one's grasp of power, allow them to move up that filthy rope, bloodied by the blood of those who defended the government, who did their jobs, in the face of overwhelming odds, that rope reaching and revealing itself tied around Trump's bloated waist, even as he engaged in coup planning, in outright treason. 

Our country has gone bonkers, with people suing for the right to commit national suicide, to kill themselves and take their families and friends along with them on that fatal ride. Guess those people are 'collateral damage', hence no rights for them! We take 'personal privacy' as sacrosanct when talking of not taking a lifesaving vaccine, but not worth anything in the imposition of outside rules upon a woman. About her own body!! Cake and eating it too, twisted rules that defy any rights to anyone at any time, according to the pleasure of the GOP. 

Guns - yes. Voting rights - NO!. Freedom to choose - no. Next? Contraceptives? Criminalization of any and all participants in abortions? Dictatorship or meaningless elections as all opposition voices are stifled? Backwards movement in the working world as laws protecting workers, men, women and children, are struck down, one by one, many upon many. Where does it stop? At the imposition of forced medical procedures, forced pregnancies? No end in sight here either. Think not? Think again. Review our history, the history of the world, from oh, 2014 and forward, even as we move backwards.

"... the National Guard would be present to 'protect pro Trump people' and that many more would be available on standby,” 

That was an email sent out by Meadows, Trump's shadow, re the coup. "We are on the way to a right-wing coup. The whole thing is insanity,".  Yet another revelation at how other government officials and/or high-ranking military personnel, thought, what they were quite frightened about and for. In the meanwhile, that man, Trump, and his alleged fellow co-conspirators, merrily continued on in their wild, traitorous dancing, over the dead body of the USA.

People.  People.  People.
