He angrily called me a
Marixist, Fascist & Pedo
as per of course ,
But misspelled the 1st 2 words badly π
You feel like you're not really talking to them ,but a representative from some RW Propaganda media outlet.
It's so transparently obvious.

I was debating a guy on Twit once & I listed 3 items in the DJT Agenda which would only benefit the top 1% & add trillions to our debt
He replied
What's a Woman ?
So I said
A pathetic deflection on your part &
People which you have obviously struggled to gain the attention or admiration of

It would be Sad , if they weren't empowering the very worst people taking over our Govt.
I lost a childhood friend who started listening to Rush L. on his work drive π
Within 6 months
Newspapers, Movies ,Music was all
" Too Liberal" for him.
This stuff is 100% pure Indoctrination.

But hasn't our media helped this along too ,
Every election cycle for 30 years now they give endless hrs to so-called
Undecideds π whose brains you can smell burning as they blather their foolish ideas & we sit & hold in our mouth vomit π€’
God Save The Union.

Of course because folks who know nothing about the US Govt are easy prey even for an obvious liar like DJT
Seriously have you ever talked with these people ? My God it's painful π£
The so called great US Division is nothing but millions of idiots who have been convinced they know things.

So many of the MAGA I've encountered know almost nothing about US Govt or what either party supports,
It was the original reason I switched parties
It's as if they have weaponized the stupid & gullible to take control of our Govt
Convincing them their feelings are the = of facts

You my friend , give me hope as I had once thought most boomers especially those who served had all become MAGA ,but you remind me that its only the soft minded, hateful & illinformed who fall into that cult
I'm not trying to label ,but I haven't come across many educated or intelligent MAGA π

Remember back in good ole days when a US POTUS was not a for profit business
That's back when we had laws & morals
We understood that character was important when choosing a US POTUS
& Spare me any/all Whataboutisims as it's never been so blatant or obvious before Assholini.

When you feed people Hate 24-7 ,this is what you get
This murdering asshole probably knows nothing about the Democratic Party he set out to destroy or even his own party
I'd bet $ he is as dim-witted as he is cold blooded
I'm sure he will take the cowards way out so it all becomes speculation

I bet you never thought you would see a Vietnam draft dodger leading a US military parade in celebration of
HIMSELF
I read Fred T. had to go to 5 different doctors until he found one willing $$$ to sign a medical exemption
But most aren't born of such privileges & yet he shows no humility
comment in response to

I've always wondered if the S Vietnamese really wanted us there or what the end goal was
Was it all BS to get young boys to go & fight
& if The Cause was a lie then
Why did you have to risk your life ? & lose young friends ??
I've never seen war up close so I try to use caution with my opinions
comment in response to
post
I watched endless documentaries about Vietnam ,The Tet offensive etc..
I wonder how we ever thought those people could be beaten?
Seemed like nothing but an ugly meat grinder for working class men while weapons makers & war pigs reaped profits $
Sad π’

Yes it's disgusting how DJT is ignoring those poor people but ...
How many of them Voted to gut our Govt for Billionaire Oligarchs?
Did any of them read the DJT Agenda
Project 2025 ?
I read Biden's 2020 Agenda
The WWE Politics of Dancing & not knowing stuff.

When everything was based on 100% BS & all the people tasked are unqualified grifters , WTF did you expect?

No π that was only for Joe Biden
Breaking News !
it's now obvious that Biden can no longer serve as President & we at Fox will be discussing this with multiple paid GOP propagandists for the next few days π π

Not really other than the clips of him as a young asshole & RW Hate profiteer
But then again Putin is a master of Propaganda so who knows

Even my NY Times must now tread carefully & not upset Assholini
US democracy is on thin ice & Newspapers can ill afford a fight with the executive branch as they are just holding on in 2025
If we don't see massive wins for Democrats in 25 (NJ) & the 2026 Midterms we may never get out of this.

We see it slowly happening as the NY Times, WP & even the WSJ must tread carefully & not speak the truth out loud π’
S. Miller barely qualifies as a human being , but our media must tow the line for Nasferato.
US Voters, What have you done ???

What years did you serve & in what military branch ?

I thought she might be proud of me as my Grandfather served 2 tours in WW2
But she saw me more like a son.
My mom was chronically divorced or out clubbing so my Grandparents were like parents to me.
(Gen X to the core)
They raised me in many ways & I miss them still π

You served in Vietnam huh ?
I can't even pretend to know what that was like.
I was so enamered with H.W Bush , I wanted to go & serve him in DS
But my Grandma said if I gave up my college grant & got killed she would haunt me from the grave forever !
I loved her & decided not to go.
comment in response to

He realized you can't have both & now must give his people Govt grants & benefits that would make B. Sanders Blush
I honestly don't think they have thought π€ this thru or care
They feel enough WC voters will let freedoms go & be shat upon economically
Are we really that
Stupid π?
comment in response to
post
I would hope so π
Germany had been decimated economically by the versie treaty & the losses of WW1
They were desperate for anyone who made them feel good again & proud to be a German
It feels more like an attempt to make us Hungary but even Orban knows you can't have Oligarchy & dictatorship

Funny how we don't realize just how precious time is until it's running low.
The same goes for US Democracy as most thought π€ " It can't happen here "
Yes it can & it will unless we fight back
History is littered with former free nations that either fell apart or lost it.

Yeah , the hardest thing to get over is The Regret
I Regret Losing all those years of my late youth , my career , marriage etc..
But ya gotta keep pushing on & remind yourself that life is still worth living happily.
Every day above ground is still a good one

Now I read that a DJT Toadie has a good shot at Governor of my state of NJ in Nov.
Apparently people were confused π€ at having multiple candidates to choose from ??
Tell me again how we need 4 or 5 parties π
We can't even handle or understand the 2 we have
God Help This Nation π

Exactly
Can you believe the SCOTUS gave this new DOGE asshole full rights to all Americans Tax records & personal info
DJT is apparently using a database Co. to build a list of loyalist & non loyalists
Perhaps I will be put in
Ze-Camps for mocking

If this isn't Fascism
What is?

I never messed with hard stuff in youth just weed/shrooms
But Oxycontin was so pure & addictive
Perdue the billion $ maker ,has long been sued out of existence
But the SCOTUS protected their $ so I'm on a list with about a million others who will probably never see a dime π

Had a bad Auto Accident when she was Pregnant
(I was alone thank God)
Dr was more than happy to write endless scrips for Oxycontin
1st 20 ,then 40 finally 80mg 4 X a day + Morphine sulfate
I hid it for yrs until I just fell apart & became a shell of my old self
She tried but I was a real mess

Also you do realize this drone strike was almost 2 years in the making
It was pre-planned & supplied long ago.

As a private citizen, I don't believe he has the authority to release military arms & supply Ukraine anymore
Not really understanding your questionβ

Funny you bring that up as despite my pleas one of my daughters is determined to become a Teacher
She knows all the risks, but it's what she wants so who am I to discourage such a noble career choice
It's her life.
btw-Sadly I did a lot more than Inhale & it's the reason I'm divorced

Also who in hell calls a piece of legislation,
The Big Beautiful Bill π€©
Are we all 5 years old ?
DJT & the GOP treat their own voters like dumb children
" No we aren't shitting on you , that's magical freedom chocolate from heaven"

Sadly that simple cartoon sums it all up.
But the Indoctrinated MAGA are all watching OANN, NEWSMAX & FOX who will blame the debt on Dems & create some new distractions & outrage etc..
US voters aren't good at seeing cause & effect
+ they have very short attention spans.
So Pathetic π.

" We aren't concerned because our Indoctrinated slaves are watching OANN & Fox who will simply blame all this debt on Dems & then point to another shiney distraction π

How many times are we going to swallow the GOP BS line of
" Despite what every economist on earth & the laws of math say this billionaires gift will promote growth for everyone"
It's never worked as it's a LIE
It will increase inequality & add tons of Debt
Q: MAGA are you buying this BS ?

I wish that was true but ..
Had President Biden been allowed to continue the state of Putin's empire economically would have collapsed by 2027-28
His GDP is still at depression levels & inflation is in double digits
But Ukraine needs US arms , support
DJT won't give them Anything

I used to give lessons
(Mostly for pot π)
back in HS & honestly I could tell who was gonna stick with it & who wasn't after a few months
I'd usually stop them & say look , you're not practicing enough & I can tell
Do you just wanna learn a song to impress a chick etc..? Ok then π

I'm very close with my X & we are working together to get my girls thru college
I can't get the past back or reverse mistakes I made but...
She is happy I rediscovered my love of guitar playing & we've tried to get 1 or both of my daughters to play but , with limited success ,
Oh well π

I stopped playing for about 4 years as I was depressed over my life/ divorce (My Fault π)
But 3 years ago the old spark got relit & now I play all the time & am getting better than ever.
& I giged from
19-till 32 when my twin girls were born.
I've rediscovered the great love of my life

My Grandfather was a depression era FDR/JFK Democrat & was proud of it
Democrats needs to find ways to make party membership cool again
God knows the GOP has endless Propaganda media outlets that push the party line & paint Dems as stupid ,evil etc..
Even Union members fall for it π

My Age Aside
Facts don't lie & they say less than 38% of Gen Z even votes
& much less are Registered party members
Most are Independents or dreaming of a 3rd , 4th party to magically appear that passes all their purity tests

That's Cool π
I've been into everything from early glam (youth) Bowie ,Sweet ,Reed
Zep ,Clash , Stones
& I Love FZ Mother's
But later fell in love with swing jazz of Duke ,Shaw ,Goodman
that my Grandparents played
The Series 'Jazz' made me realize what great music they had !
comment in response to

I talk with Gen Z folks at work & their understanding of US Polotics & Govt is a mashup of half truths & outright nonsense
The men are more concerned with Comic con & fantasy super hero movies ect..
Yikes , I sound like another bitter old man

Great Line & So True
God I love that song
Like most musicians I'm a lifetime music junkie from birth
Mom playing The Beatles, 3 Dog Night etc.
Grandparents playing Jazz & R&B
It sounded like magic to me.

As far as Oligarchs
Citizen United must be curtailed as it's an invitation for greedy people to simply buy politicians rather than pay taxes or obey regulations
I feel it's why Biden's HR-1 was blocked as it put limits on that terrible law regarding US Elections

That expression btw is known well by guitarists & musicians like myself
Often It's better to just play the right notes than a flurry of endless notes

The Net hasn't made us more informed, just more confused & gullible
We were better off with the straight dope delivered in small digestible bites
I remarked that Qanon wouldn't have gone far in 1970 because folks were grounded in basic realities.
What a stupid time for America.
