| Rough Music |

| [AccordingToHoyt] Pratchett’s "Witches" world was so similar to my own, from jumping over fires to get married (not legal in my day, but there was memory of it) to various local folk superstitions, that it was always a surprise when he pulled something I’d never heard of. One of these is the "rough music." When someone has done just about enough that a small village can no longer put up with him, the men in the village get together and play a barbarous and terrible music as they nerve themselves up for the barbarous and terrible things they have to do. ...2- Europe is about 20 years "ahead" of us on the road of what a friend of mine calls the Brahamandarins taking over. The internationalist left has been in full command since the nineties. They never had a Reagan (Thatcher sort of kind of held off the tide briefly, but only in one country.) There was no eighties prosperity. Hell, slick Willie was to the right of their right. Obama is about center of their politicians, including his loathing for the country he governed. 3- Europe is in trouble BAD. The government has betrayed the people to the extent of making it almost impossible for rural populations to live with any dignity; for people to afford having families; for people to be safe in their lives, pursuits and possessions. No, I mean to a level you guys don’t comprehend. Imagine if the Obama years had lasted for 30 years now, and he controlled all the media, all the judges and most of the law enforcement. And Europe has had just about enough. Things like Brexit and the Yellow Jackets filter through here, in the alternate news sources. I wonder how much else is going on, we have not a clue about. The fact we know about the Yellow Jackets at any level is bizarre enough, given that they are ‐ media and internet wise ‐ living in the eighties. ...First however, let me say that hearing the rough music from the rest of the world is starting to echo here. We see what’s going on there. And we hear strange and stupid stuff, like the "whistleblower of the day" and an impeachment without voting and of course, pancake-gate. Faced with that kind of behavior you obviously think "It’s insane." And "We have to stop it." But there is something you’re missing. There’s the good news. The first good news, of course, is that Trump won in 2016. it was bloody impossible. The fraud was unbelievable. But he still won. And in the midterms ‐ yes, they won the house, but think about it ‐ the fraud was UNBELIEVABLE. Literally. Banana republics were laughing at our random keeping of polling stations open, of weird shenanigans with votes down in FL and of whatever the heck the chick in Georgia thought she was doing. And they won... the house. And not with a rushing majority. Do you know why they’re going insane? Because they hear the rough music too. And they know that they probably can’t cheat enough to win in November 2020 or even keep the house. And they’re desperate. And none of their increasingly crazier gambits are sticking. |
