A Boring Dystopia

We completely lost control of "our" two political parties, we are a lot more like China and Russian than people want to admit, we can talk shit about the government but we have about as much control over it as the Chinese and Russians have over theirs. Anything Military gets rubber stamped by congress with like maybe 10% of them voting against any of it, even what passes for Left. Democratic Party goes along with it all while whining, basically a mistreated housewife, but Democratic Party won't actually leave their abuser. Rather than try and make themselves attractive to progressive voters they instead try and lean "Conservative."(Corrupt) The can't lean progressive because the progressives want to tax the rich and regulate Big Business, etc, but those are their sugar daddies.

They have to take "Lobby and Campaign Finance money"(bribes) to buy advertisements on Corpo-Media, also if they don't kiss the ring(turns their back on Progressives) the media shadow bans them and all the other "politicians" outcry how unqualified for the job they are and how they will ruin "America." To be fair If those other politicians didn't take bribes they wouldn't have gotten elected, therefor it's hard to keep out the type who are threatened by progressives. We are just a lot more sophisticated in having a rigged system, internally our propaganda is subtler, externally I bet we look like malignant idiots, we kind of are but we were somewhat turned into it. A blend of Russia problems and Chinese Problems, we call it USA, the social progress is non existent or at least I haven't seen any in 30 years.

Of course if Democracy/society had two brain cells to rub together than would notice they could vote for the opposite minor party, drawing away votes from the The Republicans and the Democratic Party inversely while also doing cultural exchange(divisiveness immunization), Pressuring their hated blob of choice to up their game lose or get replaced. Shifting power away from the two big blobs and create two more options to vote for but they only know how to wave the flag of Lesser Evil. To be fair Politicians are supposed to guide them into those kind of cleverness, but maybe they are too busy making $1000 plate fund raising dinners and rubbing shoulders with the rich somewhere. Or if they are different they are someone we never heard or of heard of because they didn't spend lots of money trying to compete for our attention with the Corpo-slop-trough.

If Americans want to exonerate themselves they can either suffer the indignity of being complicit to the violence inflicted abroad and at home while waiting for the next election to maybe, possibly, thread of hope change its course. Or they can throw caution to the wind, put their lives and livelihood on the line, and attempt to wrest control back through force. Doing the latter will be a mess, cause more bloodshed, and is up against a powerful machine better equipped to crush it. But no one outside of America is going to save it from itself. The people in power have a world class military, relative geographic isolation, and the nuclear option to keep them at bay. Other states could sanction, isolate, deny trade, but they won’t fight the fight for us. If you want absolution, earn it. Destroy what destroys you and countless others. You don’t have to fight alone, in fact I highly recommend not doing that.
