Facebook is just as culpable for last night's shooting as Fox news and OANN. (Lincoln Project shared proof, added in comments.)
FAKE information and home grown terrorist organizations have been allowed to flourish here. So much so, these groups act here unencumbered by any sense of decency. Even reporting various threats get ZERO response from Facebook.
“Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
When George Orwell talked about "big brother", this is what he meant. Home grown terrorists who would take over by elections and then terrorize the rest of us into submission.
"We shall squeeze you empty, and then we shall fill you with ourselves.”
When these types of people come into power, they use divide and fear as their hoist to more power. More hate, more anger, more intimidation, more killing. They do not denounce it, because they feed on it.
"Always, at every moment, there will be the thrill of victory, the sensation of trampling on an enemy who is helpless."
When people talk about the "deep state", Trump's created it. The people who pretend to be paranoid about it are it. They are the weapons that have been mobilized. They don't see how the deep state was the people held at bay, that lied and still lie, to feed their own power, their own ego.
"...always there will be the intoxication of power, constantly increasing and constantly growing..."
And when it's finally over and all of people who have been organized and pulled into this feeding frenzy decide they want their say, they will find there was never any voice for them either. Just obedience with Trump.
"The heresy of heresies was common sense.”
I truly want to believe the United States of America that I fought for, that ALL People have Inalienable Rights of LIFE and LIBERTY, still exists to grow and flourish. But anyone with a gun against a fellow American must realize that is against everything we declared we are about. The RIGHT TO LIFE AND LIBERTY for ALL. That's what I fought for. NOT Americans KILLING other UNARMED Americans...
"...a nation of...fanatics, marching forward in perfect unity, all thinking the same thoughts and shouting the same slogans, perpetually... persecuting..."
I fear this has gone too far. That November will not be the end of this, but just a rocket boost into the depths of a hell this entire planet thought we ended with World War II. And even if it ends the way I hope and pray, that the glorification of hate is too enticing.
"We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it.”
Maybe it will be fine. November's election will come; there will be skirmishes. But, 95% of us well be relieved it's over and want to move forward, forgetting what brought us here. The brink of Trump's deep state from '86 to '16 to seize power almost destroying a Nation that only 80 years ago was so full of resolve. They will need to be exposed fully, instead of us breathing a sigh of relief.
"..the object of waging a war is always to be in a better position in which to wage another war.”
Or they will regroup, try again, over and over, until they succeed.
Vote Biden not because you like him. But because the Deep State has always and still is people like Trump greedy for power and money. He is the Deep State, for God's sake.
