Welcome to a new edition of Tubularsock’s GUEST BLOG SERIES and once again Dianya is back. Tubularsock is responsible for the title because Tubularsock thought it best summarized the thrust of the article. Happy reading. Is there hope?
The Threat of the Fear of “Trump-Again, OMG”!
My good friend exclaimed yesterday. “The thought of Trump again as President sends my nervous system into shambles! Did you listen to Bill Maher?”
My friend went on to tell me about Maher’s recent prediction—that
Trump is scheming with a vengeance to retake the U.S. Presidency in 2024. Maher had explained in some detail how he thought Trump could pull this off.
I listened to Maher last evening (LINK) and his ideas do indeed point to a possible scenario. (Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7cR4fXcsu9w)
One of the great fears I hear expressed around “Trump-again” is “the dire threat he would pose to our Democracy.”
Trump is unquestionably a madman—in or out of the Presidency.
Don’t get me wrong: I do not want him back!
BUT—WE ARE ALREADY LOSING or threatened with losing OUR DEMOCRACY!
In our terror over the Corona virus, the mass of the population has been giving up its long established rights held in our Declaration of Independence such as:
“The right to LIFE, LIBERTY, and the PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS” . . .
And those of the our Constitutional Amendments:
“The right to FREEDOM OF SPEECH”. . .
“The right to FREEDOM OF THE PRESS” . . .
Just for starters . . . I could go on and on . . .
Steven Donziger’s prosecution by Chevron’s Kangaroo Court has also shown us
LOSS OF “THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY”.
This is, however, not my focus in this article—I just could not pass by mentioning it as another travesty of denial of Constitutional rights— completely ignored by the mainstream press. For more info see: https://www.freedonziger.com/) Note: this will lead you to a “Page Not Found” press “GO BACK HOME” on that page and the link will open. Don’t know why.
The MANDATING OF VACCINES as a condition of employment threatens our “RIGHT TO ‘LIFE’ “ (food and shelter and health-care) and to “THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS” (a fulfilling life).
The MANDATING of VACCINES means our giving up the LIBERTY
of our right to choose what we do with our bodies (cf. Roe vs. Wade).
The PRESSURE TO VACCINATE THE ENTIRE POPULATION—with Big Pharma’s vaccines allowed as THE ONLY WAY through the pandemic that has terrorized the population has brought about LOSS OF “FREEDOM OF SPEECH” (as one group of alternatively-thinking doctors and scientists after another is de-platformed and disallowed from U-tube, with articles and information grossly suppressed and disallowed.
(Even RAND PAUL, U.S. Senator, who is pro-vaccine, but also pro-choice has been de-platformed from U-tube!)
The PRESSURE TO VACCINATE THE WHOLE POPULATION with Big Pharma’s vaccines allowed as THE ONLY WAY through the pandemic has brought about the LOSS OF “FREEDOM OF THE PRESS” , as journalists and reporters are threatened with job-loss and funding-loss to, for instance (until recently), even SPEAK of Ivermectin (an anti-viral alternative to the injection).
I recall Krystal Ball of “Breaking Points” telling her audience several months ago how “courageous” she and her journalist partner had to be to even HAVE an investigative journalist on their show SPEAK about just the EXISTENCE of Ivermectin!
The PRESSURE TO VACCINATE THE ENTIRE POPULATION with Big Pharma’s vaccines allowed as THE ONLY WAY through the pandemic has let me personally experience a threat to “LIFE and LIBERTY” as I, like many, chose through intuition and research to not take the vaccine and instead got a doctor’s prescription for Ivermectin to use if needed.
The AMA-licensed medical doctor had to be “underground” (it was like dealing with Al Capone and the “Speakeasy” days of prohibition). And even with my doctor’s prescription, “Joe”, the pharmacist at a local pharmacy, self-righteously and pompously refused to fill the prescription, saying, “This looks like it’s for Covid. I won’t fill it. You can get the vaccine here.”
SCARY TIMES!
And we’re giving up our American SOUL, the strength and DECLARED INDEPENDENCE of which this country was founded on, as we see doctors and scientists and reporters held to the narrative they are told to follow, gagged and terrified for their jobs, and the population pitted in division into an intolerant “your side” and “my side”.
Becoming absorbed in the fear of a “Trump-Return”—as I see it— at this moment— would bring the danger of getting lost in “THE FEAR OF THE RETURN OF TRUMP” while not remaining awake to what is going on right now, right before our eyes—the threat to losing our “INALIENABLE” RIGHTS” —one by one.
If we allow ourselves to get lost in “THE FEAR OF THE RETURN OF TRUMP” and blind and deafen ourselves to the loss of our “INALIENABLE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS” that is unfolding and/or being threatened with unfolding right now, we WILL be losing what is left of our Democracy . . .
. . . and it won’t be TRUMP taking it away!!!!
“Trump will take away our Democracy” can become a gauze that will continue to veil the awareness of those not yet awake to our Democracy being challenged — right now— with erosion before our eyes— right now.
Terror of the virus and the need to “fight” the terror has already proven itself a gauze over the eyes of a population mesmerized by fear.
And absorption in “the threat of Trump-again-as-President” can add just one more layer of gauze, keeping our attention off what is transpiring NOW.
