waitingman: (World Politics)
I really wonder... & I want to know the answer... but I'm almost 1000% certain I wouldn't like it...

What is the Republican/Religious Right's end game here? What is their vision for the USA's future? How is their increasingly violent & repressive agenda going to make America great again?

Because it seems to me that if you make it easier for everyone to get access to automatic weaponry, then proceed to persecute a proportion of the populace that, if banded together, would easily outnumber your support base, you're starting a war you can't possibly win...

And if you reduce the USA's international standing to that of a theocratic, feudal laughing stock, how does that keep you safe from the other, emerging global power-players? Who do these blinkered idiots think will step in to fill the vacant seat at the top of the table? Hint - it's unlikely to be anyone friendly to the USA...

So where do they see the USA in 5 years... 10... 50??

So in the USA it's now much easier to openly carry a gun to kill people & much harder to get an abortion, even if you're the victim of sexual assault

History has shown what comes next...

I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said: “Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal these words appear:
“My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!”
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
waitingman: (Idiot!)
I’m not a doctor, I’m a fucking moron. I’m not a respected source of information.

But I at least try to be honest about what I’m saying.


Sure... Sure you're honest... except you never point out that what you're saying is medically & scientifically unproven, or disproved, or just plain wrong

Who might I be quoting & talking about here...??
