Hello all.
The sniveling cowards who represent the old-line DNC forces on this blog have again…in emulation of the way the the DNC essentially zeroed out Bernie Sanders in 2016…zeroed out a comment of mine.
But…since they started doing this, I have been saving every thread that contains one of my comments or replies, because I absolutely refuse to be silenced by the kinds of people who essentially brought us Donald Trump with their shortsightedness, hubris and their own entirely self-protective interests. The thread was Booman’s Trump Calls Andrew Gillum a Thief, and poster Raoul Paste made this comment:
Trump is desperate, and I’m sure the lies will be even more hateful in the next few days.
If all of his hair would fall out this week, I would become a believer in cosmic justice.by Raoul Paste on Mon Oct 29th, 2018 at 03:26:05 PM EST
I liked that comment, and was struck by how funny it would look of all of Trump’s hair fell out.
Read on for my own (zeroed-out) reply:
Comic justice, too!!!
But…to be fair “Pot calls kettle black!!!” is not a new meme.
In this case, of course, it’s more like “Almost universally recognized billionaire thief calls mainstream pol who may have cut a corner or two a thief.”
I mean…even Trump’s supporters know he’s crooked. They just think that he’s their crook. This is very similar to the way impoverished ghetto-dwellers historically support their own gangster groups.
And…it always turns out nasty. Out of sheer greed, eventually the crooks so cross their constituents that the real deal becomes apparent, and then…only then…are the marks outraged.
I don’t know if we can afford to wait long enough for that to happen with Trump and his 27+%, though. I actually believe that his lieutenants will do him in…one way or another…once they see him seriously to steer the ship of state straight for the shoals.
Let us pray that this happens soon. I mean…even if the Dems pulled the upset of all time next week and took both houses and a bunch of governorships, they’re still run by the neocentrist (and laughably incompetent) DNC controllers, and the opposition to Trump would crawl along at the usual DC snail’s pace because the centrists of both parties do not want to get caught with their own pants down. That would give Trump at least two more years to pile-drive the government into total failure.
Let us pray…

Do not sit by and let this blog be bullied and transformed into dKos Lite/DNCman Tribune by only a few of its members. Call them on their actions!!! The next few years are going to be a turning point of some sort for this country. It’s either going to regress to full Reagan/Trump reactionary bullshit or it is going to open up past the neoliberal/neocentrist/UniParty DC swamper lines that so seriously failed it and thus led to Trumpism.
Open up to a real “people’s” republic.
Fight censorship on all levels!!!
As Lenny Bruce so presciently said, “If you can’t say “fuck,”, you can’t say “Fuck the government!!!”
Thank you and goodnight…
