Thank you james - i live on the other side of the world away from all this madness but - as you and everyone else knows the US politics is adopted by most other nations - sadly
i have had an Obie one konobi moment - I felt a massive distrubance in the field - a vauge but deep uneasiness continues to grow
so many people think that getting clinton out was a good thing and bringing back the party that gave us 9/11 was a good thing - its all insane
i am disapointed in WikiLeaks and feel that they got played or have sold out to the neocons in whose hands they gave this election - whose coup was this the 1% - not ours - nothing about any of this will bring freedom to the people of the world and i guess the best thing to come out of this is that this fact - this reality - may just smash through the illusion known as politics/voting
America was never ready for a Women President and this showed it - while i am no fan of Clinton - her warmongering ways and her lies and deceit - she is no worse than any other president before her yet the attack was brutal and consistant and she is being named the personifcaiton of evil - as if no one else ever was like Bush Snr and Jnr - Since Eve bit the apple, women have always taken the most brutal of assualts and in this case it was easy to see
the ones that didn't vote are the real heroes - why because they resisted all temptation to stay in the game to play the illusion of choice known as voting - they stepped out of the cultural meme that says voting will change anything - they woke up to the reality that there is no choice - its all one game - a game of thrones -I congratulate them - the percentage of people who didn't vote is the bigger story here as this percentage point drops it reveals a lack of support from the people - and over here its the Magana Carter that still exists that gives the people the ultimate power over kings and queens - these days presidents or Prime ministers - this is sadly forgotten by most - and the 1%ers will shortly move to get rid of that document
thank you James - you have at least given me a reason for why i feel so disturbed and have a lingering apprehension
unity1 - Please don't buy into the bogus idea that Hilary was rejected because she was woman. To say Hilary was no more corrupt than any President before her is practically the same as saying she was no more corrupt than any mobster or third world dictator before her and that is precisely why many people didn't vote for her. Given her long career in politics Hilary has had plenty of time to dirty her hands and people know this about her; whereas Trump, while also certainly a corrupt slime-ball, has the luxury of being perceived as a political outsider. Though many of his opponents thought his lack of political experience would be a weakness it was actually a strength at least in the minds of those who voted for him. Hillary supporters often write-off people's opposition to her as misogyny and yet these same people attribute no such anti-woman sexism to themselves when they viciously oppose and mock conservative female politicians like Sarah Palin, Theresa May or a Maggie Thatcher. This isn't to say that Palin, May or Thatcher aren't entirely worthy of opposition or mockery (indeed they are) but merely that cries of sexism, racism, etc have long served as convenient and selectively employed tools for silencing contrary political opinions. The left specifically have overspent this particular capital so much as to render it virtually impotent when employed on a vast portion of the masses and this was one of the primary factors that allowed for a Trump victory. Because of his crudity and unapologetic nature he was perceived as a super-being immune to the long employed techniques of politically correct thought control. In this sense he was a monster of the left's own making.
While the attack on Clinton from the alt-media was indeed brutal and consistent, the much larger well-funded establishment media (Fox news excluded) served as her constant and utterly shameless cheerleaders. While it is true the mainstream media did much to cover up or enable the crimes of Bush 1 and 2, they were far more savage (with the latter especially) than they ever were with Hillary Clinton. Additionally most of the alt-media as well as the so-called alt-right openly wear their utter distain for the Bush dynasty on their collective sleeve.
While you're probably right that Trump will change almost nothing, perhaps we can hope that the mainline media sanctioned, left leaning, conspiracy theorists are right and he is in the pocket of Putin, in which case it may at least mean that he will abandon the current strategy to destabilize Syria. Of course, given the above listed neocons in his corner that is probably a false hope.
