16. All day, every day for years, decades, centuries, and Milena
Every incident is generally looked at as completely isolated problem WHILE we are still catching shit for Jane Fonda's comments from forty or fifty years ago WHILE they have spent decades of consistent effort to weirdly blame the left for fucking Hitler, along with everything from a fart in an elevator to the limits of the fuel for the sun to burn over its life.

Our average best case scenario is "both sides do it" or just taking the heat (guilty, innocent, or what happened was...) because we'll be damned if we place blame no matter how well earned and we deal with those lying motherfuckers that always lie.

If people are actually going to be pragmatic then it is fundamentally pertinent to understand and deal with who you are dealing with.

There is a mode of thought that absolutely is the definition of insanity in how these fuckwits and villains are reacted to and even perceived.
The passive and sharing the blame game plan is bogus. It simply will never work and is wickedly counter-productive.
Doubly bad (or more) is we simultaneously have a rather powerful faction driving us to generally assimilate with the right on economic, civil liberties, and foreign policy and "meeting in the middle" (wherever that supposedly is) on social issues and civil rights.
On the role of government it seems the poles are on one hand government for the security of capital and on the other facilitating capital, with the politicians falling somewhere between.
That's not the only axis but it seems to be one at play in most cases.

But no, the overwhelming weight of the hits land our way. Even when one of "ours" goes batshit who do they hit? One of "ours", which leads to a certain conspiratorial seed of doubt about about any of it.

I think we tend to be sheep among wolves. We are goofy for our refusal to connect the dots so abundant they almost run over themselves on their own.
How is it not clear that these folks must be made accountable as an ideology and have some consequences for their criminality. No abuse or series of high crimes is too far, we stupidly set no boundaries so they grow more out of hand with the passing of the days until we have a Civil War or at least have to bust out the National Guard and the Feds.

Did some of you people grow up on the low to no bully diet? Can you not at the very least, recall events of your own lifetimes? Have you any recollection of our nation's history? The history of the world was something you missed? You ignored the accounts of how many people? Have you paid no attention to the make up of the hate groups and militias?

Guess what???? Its the same motherfuckers as it always is that have the exact same ideology.
