Our Leaders' Cold Dead Minds

     Does this era cause despair in our lives?  Is the governmental/societal/capitalistic structure running the U.S. laid bare like a building's skeleton against a sunset?
     Who brought ruin to America?  Donald Trump and white supremacists, or hyper-capitalist leeches draining workers of middle and poor classes, stealing fifty trillion dollars over forty years, through tax code fuckery (Biden), war obsession and profiteering, and, oops, the Pentagon can't account for twenty-one trillion dollars, among other practices enriching and empowering the worst scum in the nation.
     America, philosophically and historically, is a white supremacist nation.  Raiding and assisting raiders in capturing Africans to ship to America is not really a stain on our history.  If the sheet of the nation's history is red (and read) throughout when it comes to its own behavior towards its own people (comprised of former foreigners) and foreigners to this day, it's an easy determination: the nation in question is a bloodthirsty empire vomiting its psychopathic ideology on the world: capitalism is our religion, it must be yours, but we, the rich, use socialism for ourselves, the government gives us money, lots of money, while it debates for months on how many hundreds of dollars to give poor mothers with sick families who don't have Medicare for All, which, according to a recent study, would've saved one third of American lives from Covid-19, which makes Trump and Biden, both opposed to Medicare for All, killers of hundreds of thousands of their own people.  
     Behaviors caused by my own despair manifest as overeating, laziness, indiscipline, carelessness, brooding, TV on too much of the time, seeing a video about how Trump looks more out of shape than ever, the poor little billionaire, who really gives a fuck about that asshole?
     Biden, though, God help us, is the president, the one to blame for current fixable conditions.
     Children, packed into see-through cells panopticon-style, their blankets shining like aluminum foil,
resemble wrapped fast food.  This can be blamed on three administrations: Obama's, Trump's, and Biden's.  None of these three men give a shit about these kids.
     Republican senators, including Grassley and Cruz, pretending they just discovered the inhumanity practiced as policy at the Mexico-U.S. border, went on a fact-finding mission the journalistic value of which revealed current, under Biden, overcrowded facilities like the one in Donna, Texas, maximum capacity of 250, but with 4,100 migrant children (including a four month old) "living" in Kafkaesque prison conditions.  Entirely the fault of U.S. foreign policymakers over decades of exploitation and subversion of Latin American nations, these crimes against humanity are apologized for by liberal fucktards, because, you know, Biden's doing it, not Trump, so let's look the other way.
     The same dumb politicized logic could be applied to the U.S.-enabled genocide in Yemen.  Biden isn't doing anything about that, either, nor did Trump.  400,000 Yemeni children are in danger of starving to death while Saudi Arabia, aided by the United States under Obama, Trump, and Biden, prevents food deliveries in the midst of a now six year war.  This kind of behavior by authorities, practiced by some Nazi leaders, got the latter hanged at Nuremberg.  Our leaders have no moral standards.
     Ted Cruz, with camera phone, videographed children crammed into transparent cells, enclosures like those seen in Planet of the Apes, but without the straw flooring paced upon by Charlton Heston and Linda Harrison, both of whom in that film have more room to move freely in than the unfortunates in Donna, Texas.
     A female ICE worker blocked Cruz's camera, shifting about as if playing defense in basketball.  She begged repeatedly for respect for the children, to not disturb them (as if locking up refugees from drug cartel murder zones created by the U.S. didn't disturb them so much they walked hundreds of miles to get away, wouldn't you?)
     Twitter Star Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), so alarmed from her visit to the border facilities during the Trump administration that she correctly called them "concentration camps," has not used that term to describe the even more crowded and disgraceful situation under Biden.  Same facilities, same policies, same types of motherfuckers in Washington, but AOC is now one of them.
     AOC declined to fight for Medicare for All, has twice voted for Establishment Monster Nancy Pelosi to be Speaker of the House.  She didn't fight for the fifteen dollar minimum wage killed recently by destroyer of dreams Joe Biden.  She also embarrassed herself by donating 160,000 dollars to centrist Democrats--some of whom returned the money, not wanting to be associated with her for supposedly being an arch-leftist (nonsense believed in nonetheless by those Fox News viewers who believe all the utterances of Fox News pundits).  The 160,000 dollars donated to centrist and corporate Democrats makes AOC look like the Democrat she is: one seeking approval from her party after two years of their growing hatred for her.
     That she got the 160,000 from small dollar donors who believed she would fight for Medicare for All, among other Progressive policies, should make no one ever want to donate to her again since those centrists and corporate Democrats receiving, or returning, the money are opposed to Medicare for All. 
     Imagine sending a politician money.  She claims she's fighting for what you and your loved ones need.  She then gives your money to politicians diametrically opposed to what you need.  What a fucking two-face, or, a typical shitty politician.
     I'm disappointed in AOC, to say the least, but I never donated to her, nor have I ever donated money to politicians.  I recommend it.
     AOC now calls the border situation "barbaric," but she claims it was more barbaric under Trump, with "babies ripped from their mothers' arms."  That Trump's border policies were horrible can only be denied with conviction by those who never perceived anything wrong with their billionaire president.  Joe Biden now takes on that role for liberal and Democratic apologists.  Both viewpoints are fucking stupid, and besides that, from the look of things in the border facilities, conditions are now worse under Biden--he's the president, he's the one who can do something proactive and humane about it, but he isn't.
     I didn't vote last November.  My revulsion at the idea of supporting, even with my minuscule vote, any of the lawmaker cretins running Washington, prevented me from helping any of them achieve more power.   Their actions and their lack of action in doing good, condemn children, whether in Yemen or Texas, to malnourishment and starvation, imprisonment, indignity, and uncertain futures, even as AOC and her ilk fundraise off of the criminality of their opponents, while not admitting their own criminality.
     Wake up to the true natures of these people.
