In a World of Heroes and Cowards Don't Be a Drumpf (Hint: coward)

Watch a real man and authentic hero tell a brutal, genocidal dictator and wanted war criminal to literally go fuck himself.

 

 

When I think of profiles in human courage, I think of the Ukrainian people and Ukraine's former comedic actor President Volodymyr Zelenskyy - a badass for the historical ages.  Ukraine, led by the dauntless leadership of Zelenskyy has stood fast against Putin's murderous aggression and ILLEGAL attempt to subjugate the democracy yearning Ukrainian people to his evil will.  Imagine - little Ukraine, standing firm against the biggest bully on the block Russia, which is 28 times larger than them and nuclear-armed.  That is courage.

On the other hand, when I think of profiles in human cowardice, I not only immediately think of Donald Drumpf, the Putin ass-licker and scrotum fondler himself, but also of those American voters who five days ago cast votes for him and his cadre of campaign investor, billionaire boys club pals like Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Jeff Bezos, Rupert Murdoch, the Saudis, the Russians, and other wealthy tech bro Putinphiles in this election, and helped to put them all in the US White House.  Moral cowards, every damned last one of those voters.

The fascism of Drumpf and Putin and MAGA will not win.  Evil always fails to conquer good in the end.  Sadly though, a bunch of our mostly "deplorable" fellow Americans just voted to put the entirety of the country through economic hell, as well as domestic and international political turmoil for at least another four years and the losers will be the majority of working-class, middle class Americans, and yes, that includes you too Ma and Pa MAGA.  And if we survive, if there's not another pandemic where he kills another million of of us, and if we still have a democracy in 2028, maybe, MAYBE a democrat will get elected and once again take on the task of cleaning up a shattered economy and repair the damaged foreign relations left by Republicans.  It's a cycle of conservative political ratfuckery which has been happening like clockwork since the Great Depression.

What times we are living in though, huh folks, when a cabal of immigrant billionaires can convince so many millions of American voters to become cooperative foot soldiers in their anti-American crusade to become majority shareholder owners in the American people's government and White House? . . . It's all so ungodly surreal.
