Man, I wish I believed.

I wish I still felt pride in the flag , and I’ll still respect a muh fuckin soldier..

But man,,

You lost me.

Somewhere along the way.

I don’t trust,

Figureheads, mouthpieces, agendas and visions.

I don’t trust them when they say shit like that.

Rebuke my points, address them individually ,,,I’ll notice you doing it for just that reason.

For the other versions of me out there..

It’s just that money.

That’s all there is.

Drape it in any virtue or conviction or belief in greater good, wear whatever clothes you like..

I only see it as money.

I don’t see any other motivations.

(Vanity)

Narcissism and the desire to “be seen”.

I’m sorry, I’m too far gone for it.

Seen enough.

Perhaps we’ll be better for it, and people still have a chance to operate under moral convictions,,,

Just, not your leaders.

I’ll shut up.

I’m still not going to vote, because of protest.

You like thinking about the end of the world until you actually visualize it.

If you close your eyes and picture an asteroid making its way down from the sky.

If you can visualize nuclear winter,

If you could imagine the sun going away, the power grid going down, a plague sweeping across the land,

If you can picture being starving.

If you were in the woods searching for a natural well..

All this shit would be in the rear view,,

All these things you worry about,

All that keeps you up at night,,

Fun to think about, until you visualize it.

While we’re visualizing…

What would the South separating from the Union look like?

It would complicate things, no shit, but maybe it could be peaceful.

Maybe both types of people could live in both countries, they could be married, they could have families, and they would understand

“I am American”

We’re just, not United States.

Each country operates and taxes as it wishes, sends money where it wants, behaves exactly how it wants to behave.

It’s a thought.

Let the bottom half of the nation operate for this “God” stuff, let the top half worry about bathrooms and chopping off penises.

Sure…

Why not?

You motherfuckers have exhausted me, and it feels like it was your plan all along.

You’ll still get my money..

You fuckin vermin…

Bleh….

Health care??

Wait wait wait…

Skip universal healthcare , how about,,,hear me out,,,,

Universal mental health,,and dental?

Skip all other health problems.

Heart.

Nutrition,

Muscle and bone,

Internal organs,,

Just give the people something, jesus fuck,,, give them something to go on.

You think I’m alone??

Not even,, you’ve done it to many.

I hear them talk about it,,, you don’t, but I’m actually in the real world.

It’s depressing.

Have your dance,

Nothing will change.

(Frame an argument against what I just said,,,go for it)
