(This is actually sort of a double post. Please read the extended tip jar thing as well. Thank you.)
Gaianne wrote a reply to a comment on my recent post Mercenary Army Omertica. The REAL threat. Not little Karl. that answered the sincerely stated and hopeful idea that there are now too many people “on to” the far right for them to implement much more in the way of power grabs. She simply said :
I started to comment on HER comment, and it grew.
So here it is now, as a stand-alone post.
Read on if you are curious about what might be called a cosmic view of what is up here.
The battle is not exactly “starting”, gaianne…it’s been on since the late ’40s/early ’50s. This particular battle, that is. One that is part of a war that has been going on since Cain killed Abel. However, you are quite right that it is going to continue.
These people are ideologues. The worst kind of ideologues. Ones who have the wrong idea(s), and are obsessive about them. They want to go back, to return to a better time, and the simple fact is that there IS no going back. In the evolution of the life of life, there is only going forward.
Or death.
Or…an always temporary stasis, one that lasts a little while…the ’50s for example, in America…as the evolutionary energies of the universe that pertain here on Earth recover from a particularly strenuous and effortful time.
Dassit.
Those are our only choices as individual human beings OR as societies. So-called committed conservatives are always and forever those who do not see this and thus long with a sad, nostalgic passion for the good old days, never able to understand that these ARE the good old days. They are… and both George Butch and Karl Rove are prime examples of this, each in his own way…childish, regressive thumb suckers who only truly wish to be back to the tit (or further, back to the womb), protected from all the stresses of life as an adult by a Magic Mommy who will make things “AWWWWW BETTER” again.
They have their function in human society just as do severe storms and other natural disasters in the larger picture of life on earth. They act as a brake to stop too rapid a growth pattern, and when they have done their work they just fade away, back into the gene pool until the next time that they are needed. (They are always with us, G. Bet on it. History tells us that, a thousand times over.)
However… before they fade out, they usually fight like a sonofabitch. Like a cornered rat. Like Hitler, if they are channeling some sort of REAL power.
And the continuing smirks on the faces our revered Preznit AND his Karl brain every time I see them tell me that he and his controllers ain’t through yet. Not hardly. They still have one or two more new realities to throw at us before fading out stage left.
Watch.
Stay alert, keep working, stay committed, and…
Watch.
Meanwhile…pray for rain.
A healing rain.
It’s due.
It’s coming.
It’s on the way.
Bet on it.
Any day now.
Aaaaany day.
Later…
AG
