"...luck"
In wandering the web over the Memorial Day holidays I kept finding videos of racist hostile shit all over the place. Black people immigrants gays being harassed by cops, and white people generally.
A black family chased out of a park by white vigilantes.
That sort of thing. Some settler culture whites feel seriously empowered to act out on their feelings. This from the highest level of the current government. Been going on since election night over two years ago,...yeah they got the message, and are doing the deeds.
This is all to be expected.
Trump's rise, and the push back. I'm surprised it took this long. The last 70 years of social progress for the usual suspects has been the reduction of power for the white settler culture,... decent white folks.
Sure they were doing their evil shit all along. It's just for maybe 30 or 40 years it was considered bad manners. It is now open season. So it will stay for the next 30 years or so.
This as time ages elder whites out of power. Trump rallies are elder angry white Woodstock's. There are some millennials with the same feelings,...however just not that many,...not enough.
Whites as a hegemony are aging away.
They'd still be around in tens of millions. Just not everywhere, and not in absolute control of the republic. Less of them are being born. That, and more of literally 'everybody' else.
It's really that simple. Yes they installed Trump. I expect several more Trumps to the middle of the century. After that,...well.
They could try the old South African plan of a small white minority ruling a majority Colored America. That or attempt genocide. White nationalists openly speak of a "Defensive Genocide" to protect their existence.
I expect local attempts.
I can easily see in not many years local mass murders or at least attempted acts as this in some parts of the country. They won't succeed. However they will wound the republic, and it may take another century to recover from.
In any case simple numbers, and time dictate a shift in the power arraignments across the country. This as the old hegemony literally ages out to be replaced by others. I say "others" because just being Colored don't mean we like or trust each other,...com'on this will still be America.
I won't be here for it, but the 22nd century will be interesting.
The effects of our changed climate will be profoundly overt.
Plain to the eyes of all.
Massive shifts in population around the world. On going food, and fresh water crisis. Constant border, and religious ethnic wars the works. Killer heat waves hurricanes, and blizzards. The un-ending hyper extremes of every kind of weather.
Basically all the worse parts of the Bible. ...from now on.
Americans of that grim era will look back on our mere culture, and race wars with nostalgia. "...it was such an innocent time" they'll say.
Good luck.

Humans are well on their way to extinction. Get used to it.
ReplyDeleteOh I'm very used to it, and expecting an early end to all this.
ReplyDeleteIt won't take much at this point.
Our head of state we recall is insane. He could get the ball rolling in an afternoon. I look forward to it.
The sight while I last of all those oblivious fat, and happy entitled fuck heads having their living bloody guts puke out of their rancid butts, and mouths from the nuke's radiation fills me with glee.
Ditto! I agree completely.
ReplyDeleteI'm taking time off from the kindly gentle Uncle shit, and sitting in a tub of rage for a while.
ReplyDeleteI'm angry...very angry at near everyone, and everything out there.
Hey it's the times.
Okay I feel better today.
ReplyDeleteCartoons really help.
Nope I'm fucked again...more madness rage bitter memories, and emotional exhaustion. I'm really too fucking old for this.
ReplyDeleteYou might be suffering partly from confirmation bias. None of us wanders the web as freely as we like to imagine. Lurking the web are code spiders called algorithms, designed to coax you into viewing more of the same kind of thing you've already seen. Thus they divide us. Major broadcast and print media do the same thing, albeit with less subtle sophistication.
ReplyDeleteYou're right of course.
ReplyDeleteI go online, and see nothing but atrocities racist acts cops shooting black people, and outrages by #45.
This clearly by the above comments made me insane.
I have tried to go places I'm not used to.
This confirms what you say. Suddenly I'm shoved to sites similar to what I was exploring.
There is no free ranging. We are sent to bubbles of what we prefer.
One has to deliberately go to other places because you won't find them just surfing. Lately I'm watching live stream Vloggers of various sorts...mostly science fiction.
However I've looked for, and found all manner of these things. From fucking Nazis to window box flower fans. I sat, and watched a few hours of nice people all sorts planning planting, and tending their window box flowers, and veggies.
...it actually a thing...who knew.
So yeah use your imagination to fuck the algorithms.
You'll be less nuts.
