A letter to an American friend, after the elections of 2016.
Hallo my friend -------------
I NEED to vent my frustrations and I hope
you don't mind if I do. I wish that I could write this letter to all Americans
but at least I will write and send to you across the boarder. Warning, it is written in a sarcastic tone.
I was busy too, watching three different
stations live coverage of the US election. I had a meeting but I excused myself.
The faith of the world was being decided by two hundred and fifty
million people, 99% whom have the power to make a difference but don't consider
it important enough to pay attention to. The rest of us peasants are greatly
effected by US interior and external policies but never have a chance to vote.
The Iraqis didn't have a choice to vote against Bush but a million of them died
in misery at his hands. The rest are refugees, fighters for or against ISIS or
live back in the middle ages conditions that they lived in before Sadam. He gave
them free health care, free education and other social benefits that they will
never see again in their life time. A brutal leader he was but the best they
had. If it would have been Trump, instead of Bush, he would have kept their oil,
as he said. Bush just gave it to his oil companies' bodies to profit from.
Well
I watched speechless as the greatest Empire humanity ever seen, gave itself a
rubber stamp approval to rape and pillage the world for at least another four years and
perhaps destroy what's left for future generations. Those who chose to not
participate will not escape either. They will pay for the wars Donald will start
or continue, pay their share and the share of their rich countrymen who's taxes
will be reduced. The poor's medical care will be reduced, minimum wages will not
rise, their criminals will have better automatic weapons, their supreme courts
will be more anti common-people and the list goes on.
Trump said that he is not interested in
running the country, he will be busy making America great again, so the country
will be runned by Mike Pence who is an evangelical Conservative with good
Christian values. There will be no abortions, no gay rights, no unions and
restrictions on making minorities (brown people) know their place. If a place in
the world can be found for them.
He is a Right to Work man, a lot like
that Good Catholic guy you are familiar with. Just now it will happen on big
scale. This is just the better scenario I am describing. In the age of Mussolini
and Hitler they went on to "convert" their countries to an ideology more
suitable to their nature by introducing large scale Fascism, building bigger
armies and conscripting the youth into their camp, using the best methods known
at their time.
I guess the theory of Trump being a
human hand grenade, will be tested now. I assume that the people who voted for
him thinking that he will make things so bad that it will cause a revolution,
have a good organization in place, and some supplies ready in order to make it
happen. I am sure they wouldn't have risked their own future and the future of
the world just hopping that the Indians or blacks will do it. But they have to
be careful, the Donald is very friendly with the Secrete Service, he said. You
know, those are the guys who join a revolutionary organization, find out who are
the leaders and execute them, or have them meet some other misfortune. In my
opinion it would have been easier to beat Trump in the ballot box even if it was
a long line up situation, or required checking voters registrations ahead of
time. Even better, people could have been vigilant when the Republicans were
making the voting restriction laws. A little effort at that time could have
saved much bigger efforts now.
It's amazing that people find time for watching
sports and whatever else, watching others abusing welfare and boozing it up, but
no time to participate in their own political process. We, (all of us who don't
have money) are the cause of the problems we are suffering from. Knowing fully
well that its easy to fix problems before they become disasters, we think that
someone will be nice to us because we are good people and fix the problems for
us. They don't and we assume that they made a mistake and will do it next time.
Each time it becomes a bigger problem and soon it requires a war to
fix.
Sheriff Arpaio knows Mr. Trump
personally. What ever you think may happen to him, may change now. He may be
reassigned to fix sexual immorality in Maricopa under the new establishment. If
the Donald decides to implement the policies that the president of the
Philippines is using, the old sheriff may be in charge of hit squads who will
shoot people they suspect of drug offences and other violations of good
Christian or family values.
Now that I downloaded my feelings about
the events of 11/7 I guess I better find something to be joyful about. I should
think about all the good people who are fighting as hard as they can to make the
world a better place even while others are neglecting their share of social
duty. I see them on the internet all the time. They work hard to inform the
"majority" about what it it is heading into. Some get arrested, other charged
and some even disappear. One thing they have in common. They show LOVE for their
fellow human being. Watching them lifts my spirit up.
