Volgens
Caitlin Johnstone mag men zich inderdaad kwaad maken over het feit
dat Trump de eindzege van de verkiezingen op 4 november jl.
opeiste, echter de volledige reguliere (massa-) media en ‘politieke
klasse’ hebben elke legitimiteit verloren om ook nog maar een letter
van kritiek te leveren op het zich illegaal kronen door Trump, nadat
ze de VS coup in Venezuela hebben gesteund…… (in het schrijven
van Caitlin zit een fout, daar ze zegt dat deze groepen elke
legitimiteit hebben verloren om een leider te veroordelen die henzelf [‘themselves’] kroonde, moet uiteraard zichzelf zijn)
Verder
een mooi kort stuk waarin wordt aangegeven dat we van de Democraten
niets hoeven te verwachten als Biden de nieuwe president zou worden (het artikel van Caitlin is van 5 november jl. en toen was nog niet zeker of Biden werkelijk genoeg kiesmannen zou weten te bemachtigen*). Het voorgaande daar de
grote bedrijven de Biden campagne hebben gesteund en dat moet terugbetaald worden nu hij heeft gewonnen…. Zo kan het arme deel van de VS wel vergeten dat
Biden veel voor hen zal doen, daar dit tegen de belangen indruist van
de grote bedrijven, waar ik een paar groepen apart wil noemen: de
financiële sector, de farmaceutische sector en de wapenfabrikanten
(de laatste in de grootste zin van het woord, dus inclusief de
fabrikanten van rollend, varend en vliegend oorlogstuig….)
Oké
Biden zal iets meer doen voor het milieu en de VS weer binnen de
groep landen brengen, die de klimaatakkoorden van Parijs tekenden,
een verdrag waaruit de VS, ofwel klimaatscepticus Trump, zich op 4 november jl. officieel terugtrok…..
Echter vergeet daarbij niet dat dit waardeloze verdrag volkomen ontoereikend is
om de snelle klimaatverandering zelfs maar enigszins af te remmen, laat
staan dat het leugenachtige doel wordt gehaald, om de stijging van de
wereldtemperatuur tegen het eind van deze eeuw tot 1,5 graad Celsius te beperken, dat is schier
onmogelijk!!
Lees
het schrijven van Caitlin en bedenk dat de wereld een VS president
nodig heeft die echt radicaal de boel wil veranderen, niet alleen
voor het volk van de VS, maar voor de hele wereld, een president ook
die een eind maakt aan de oneindige illegale oorlogen van de VS en
die de meer dan 800 buitenlandse VS bases ontmantelt!! Denken dat
zo’n president uit de kringen van Democraten of Republikeinen zal
komen is als een fata morgana in de woestijn…….
Electoral
Musings: Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix
It
is perfectly valid for the American public to express outrage over
Trump’s declaration of victory, but the entire American media and
political class forever lost all legitimacy to condemn a nation’s
leader from illegitimately crowning themselves by backing the
Venezuela coup.
❖
Watching
Democrats’ inability to handily defeat a crazy reality TV host in two
elections is like seeing someone pick a fight with a six year-old
girl and getting their ass kicked, then coming back with a bunch of
their friends and watching them all get carried off on stretchers.
❖
All
the hours of post-electoral analysis you’re about to hear are just
mental gymnastics to avoid confronting one very simple fact: that the
way the Democratic Party has been securing funding is incompatible
with securing votes. That’s the only correct answer to the question
of what went wrong for the Democrats this year. They court wealthy
donors who in exchange demand policies which hurt ordinary Americans.
Ignore all answers besides this one.
It’s
not because of inadequate outreach to this or that demographic. It’s
not because of racism. It’s not because of being too “woke”.
It’s not because of the Electoral College or gerrymandering. It’s
because Democratic donors advance interests which hurt the Democratic
base, which naturally makes the base disinclined to vote for them.
People
simply are not going to support a party which does not advance their
interests. If the Democratic Party were obtaining material benefits
for people, they would dominate the US government. But that would
mean taking things away from the donor class, so it’s been a no-go.
Meanwhile the donor class is never going to support a party which
acts against its interests. Getting enough votes and getting the
support of wealthy elites are therefore mutually exclusive endeavors.
You cannot have both. Dems will keep struggling with votes until they
figure this out.
❖
It
is good that people are criticizing the Democrats’ garbage
performance against a cartoon character opponent. But let’s not kid
ourselves: as soon as they get Biden in the line is going to be
“We’re doing fine; nothing needs to change. Biden beat the
socialist and then beat Trump. Where’s brunch?”
❖
Democrats
ignored the left and courted Republicans instead under the mistaken
belief that there are millions of Americans who want to coddle the
rich, kill the poor, shit on disadvantaged groups and destroy the
environment, but to do so with decency.
❖
Maybe
there are a lot of liberals who are closet Trump voters. This dark,
secret passion they can never admit to publicly, like how all
conservatives secretly love gay sex.
❖
Presidents
are just narrative management ops the US empire uses to explain to
the public why it is doing the things it was always going to do. Like
explaining death to children using puppets.
❖
If
Biden somehow fails to get in, the elites who installed him as the
nominee are responsible for that loss. If Biden secures the election,
the elites who installed him are responsible for his administration’s
evil actions. You don’t get to control everything and then duck
responsibility for your outcomes.
❖
Ignore
everyone who’s bitching about the Electoral College right now. They
only ever complain about it during actual elections and then forget
all about it until the next one.
❖
Leftists
who voted Biden did it with the goal of hopefully later getting a
chance to wake America up. Liberals who voted Biden did it so they
can go back to sleep.
❖
Bush
dropped more bombs than Clinton. Obama dropped more bombs than Bush.
Trump dropped more bombs than Obama. This trend has much less to do
with who’s president than with the nature of global metastatic
imperialism. And it ain’t changing with Biden.
❖
The
idea that everything will be fine once Trump’s gone is more dangerous
than Trump.
❖
The
more desperately aggressive and authoritarian the western empire
becomes, the more the blue checkmarked commentariat who protect it
are going to expose themselves for what they really are.
This
is all you’re ever seeing with those liberals and fauxgressives who
spend all their time on Twitter taking pot shots at anti-imperialists
and finger wagging at people for being too far left. They’re just
protecting an increasingly indefensible world order from its critics.
❖
“Antifascists”
who support Biden should call themselves
Arguably-Slightly-Less-Fascist.
❖
The
dumbest thing about this presidential race has been the narrative
that nations who will be targeted by the US no matter who wins have a
really strong preference for one of the candidates.
❖
Beauty
is just a word for the experience of having truly seen something.

==========================================
* Hoewel er nu ook stemmen ‘uit onverdachte hoek opgaan’, dus geen Trump aanhangers, die stellen dat er inderdaad is geknoeid met de verkiezingen…….. (al lijkt het me sterk dat e.e.a. nog tot een andere uitslag zal leiden)
Zie ook: ‘Democratie is meer dan verkiezingen alleen: tijd dat politici dat in hun oren knopen‘
‘Met de winst van Biden is het fascisme in de VS bepaald niet weggestemd‘
‘VS moordmachine weer in handen van ‘volwassen en bekwame leiding’‘
‘Joe Biden president, echter de peperdure campagne was zo slecht dat de senaat in handen blijft van de Republikeinen……‘ (en zie de links in dat bericht!!)
En ter zijde: ‘De EPA heeft toestemming gegeven om dicamba te herintroduceren op de VS markt, leuk vooruitzicht daar Biden TTIP zal tekenen‘
‘Bidens puppeteers verwijten Trump slap buitenlands optreden‘
