Imagination & Creativity during Political Trauma

Think outside the box

Whenever I hang around here reading Notes, Live video comments and articles, I can’t believe the volume of people who are on a treadmill and going nowhere fast.

Yes, the citizens of the United States are going through tons of orchestrated trauma. Most of them have never seen anything like this before. It was always there, but outside of their vantage point. What the folks running this country are doing is intentionally taking us there. Only the strong will survive.

If you study how authoritarian societies took over Democracy, you will see that their divide and conquer tactics are all the same. Nazi Germany, Russia, China, Israel, and now the United States as the superpowers. There are other countries in that mix, like Italy, Hungary, etc. They wear people down by flooding the zone with bullshit and many people are not creative enough to think outside of the box with this.

Ones who do are merely stared at and not taken seriously. How many times do you hear or read, “I can’t believe this is happening? What do we do?” People aren’t even waiting for answers. They’re numb and can’t even hear them. Dictators are counting on that reaction that has so many of us in disbelief, that this is who the United States has been since the founding of this nation.

Black people have been seeing it for over 450 years now. Native Americans saw it when they were wiped out to only 8,000,000 people. Japanese Americans saw it when they were caged during WWII. Latinos are seeing it now. Other minorities & special interest groups have seen hints from time to time. Everybody else is getting a headache from realizing they’re getting run over, too. This is how fascism is erected.

It was isolated and ignored by white people until January 2025. They kicked into hyper drive so nobody can keep up with everything going on. Asshole didn’t invent any of this. The Heritage Foundation & organizations like it did. Orange Mussolini is just going along with it and getting his licks in, while the country has no laws they abide by. They’re making up their own laws and ignoring public discourse that isn’t scaring them in the least. It annoys them but doesn’t deter what they’re doing.

Who do you think they’re going to put in all those concentration camps they’re trying to buy and build? I guarantee you it won’t be Latinos. What are we doing? Why are we letting them get away with this?

The French Revolution nipped this in the bud, but people in the U.S. are reluctant to do anything besides attend a protest every few months, and complain until they’re blue in the face. It took that revolution 10 long years to get their country back. They’re doing what everybody else is doing and there is no imagination or creativity involved with those efforts. Granted, the power-hungry folks have a very nasty imagination and cruel creativity tactics, but they’ve got that ON CODE. Does it look insane? Yes, it does, and it was designed that way.

Instead of a unified effort to usurp this crazy regime, it’s every man, woman, and child for themselves. All others are included as well. They have studied what they’re doing since the 1980’s, which is why nobody can create a quick plan like they created the long plan that we’re living inside of now.

I dream of a big commando team going in, taking this regime out and putting them somewhere — one at a time if we have to. Lots of different scenarios. Feed them dog food or something. Let RFK feed them some of the nasty shit he’s put in his mouth. 😆

Seriously, I’ve thought way outside the box of current discourse, voiced my ideas and all I got was…

Well — NOTHING!

People are too afraid and this regime counts on that reaction, too. I swear it smells like burnt skin. It keeps everybody divided so they can continue to hammer out their plans.

I don’t have to lay out anything, and folks automatically assume I’m going to talk about violence against them. Almost every single time. That, too, was something implanted in the minds of Americans by professional journalists talking about how to be during this chaos. It didn’t come from activists or visionary leaders. That reaction is given and hysterical. It’s not a response.

Will there be any violence? Probably, but not as much as you think. Plan for the worst and hope for the best.

The idiot started that war in Iran, but he also started one right here in this country. It hasn’t occurred to people that he did that to distract everybody from what he’s doing right here in our homeland? He doesn’t give a shit about the Epstein files. Who’s going to hand out any consequences? He is proceeding like a mob boss. He and his entourage are relying on people feeling powerless and doing nothing to stop them.

Make no mistake, his sycophants are vast. Oligarchs, techbros, corporations, 90+ percent of politicians, white nationalists, and the cult are all in on this. This is drastic, yet the measures taken to curtail what’s going on here are minimal. They’re killing us slowly. They said they wanted to lessen the population of the United States by millions. Did you think they were kidding? They weren’t kidding, Americans! These are evil white nationalists trying to keep control/power. We’re looking more & more like a 3rd-world country.

Have we become so comfortable that we’re finding comfort in being uncomfortable? That’s what it looks like. That’s what is meant by people not being angry enough to do something different … together … in unison … proactively not reactive. 400+ million people going in different directions, and the elitists going in the same direction.

Yeah, I hear murmurs (even screaming) about shutting this shit down, but if I inquire further into creating something in reality, I’m getting crickets. CRICKETS! That’s so weird.

Must most of us lose everything to get real and fight back? Don’t wait for the Civil War. Wait too long and all this pent-up anger is going to turn into that.

You don’t let bullies keep stealing your lunch money every day. It sure looks like that is the collective reaction to what is happening here. They steal your shit, and folks are running home to cry about it to mom or dad. Except they’re running to each other and crying.

Until THAT is dealt with, nothing will happen. Until Americans get it through their thick skulls that nobody is coming to save us, nothing will happen. Until the true patriots of this country get some balls and go “CHARGE!!” nothing will happen.

Yes, we’re going to have to do many things outside of our comfort zones.

Do you see anybody talking openly about those kinds of things? Nope!

Do you see anybody talking openly about how to operate outside of your comfort zone? Nope!

Do you see anybody doing anything but trying to stay within the lines of what used to be our democracy? Nope!

Go fucking Google operating outside comfort zones. You’ll see many things on the subject. Ingest that shit. Study it. Implement it. And hurry up, dammit. Then we can come together to talk, think and move outside the little boxes you live inside of.

Are you ready to work? Are you serious yet? I see a bunch of un-serious people running around. Seriously panicking, that’s all.

Those running this regime are clinking glasses, partying, and laughing in private about our lack of doing anything to stop them. They planned all this precisely that way. The more intelligent among them spelled everything out and they’ve taken this country step-by-step. They lie about everything, so people spin their wheels trying to figure out why they’re doing what they’ve done. They did it to change this country to authoritarian rule and we’ve all been warned. They’re seeing how much they can get away with before we break.

One must have gut-wrenching conversations with themselves about short-term discomfort for long-term gain, instead of short-term comfort for long-term pain. It’s precisely what I learned in Alcoholics Anonymous. You can’t fake that kind of commitment to doing whatever and not caring about what anybody else calls it or thinks. I don’t give a fuck what people say as long as it’s effective.

Yes, it might look illegal to you. Yes, it might look like doing some things that resemble what the other side has done. Yes, it won’t feel comfortable. Yes, it will require courage. It’s all necessary.

What part of, “They’re not giving this country up peacefully,” didn’t you understand? You do realize that’s how it is right now, don’t you? We’re all headed straight into the abyss, and folks need to stop pretending we’re not going there quickly. Stop with the denials. Stop with the defeatist attitudes. Just stop all that bullshit! We can’t have any real offline conversations with all that racket going on in your heads.

We’re caught inside The Matrix and moving around like the machines aren’t in control of everything. Ummmm, YES, THEY ARE! That 1 - 2% is operating like there are 0 guardrails to what they’re doing, and it’s a fact. Stop freaking out about it and think of things to do. Stop asking everybody else. It’s showing you won’t think straight to save your own life. Take a deep breath and do it.

Doing things within your local community isn’t reaching out to other communities. At this rate, it’ll be 2027 or 2028 before people realize this, and we’ll be deep inside this new dictatorship. It won’t be new anymore, but I guarantee it will be miserable. They’re wrecking this economy on purpose and laughing because they’re stealing all our tax dollars. This regime is bankrupting the country — on purpose. They want millions of us in those concentration camps if we don’t cosign this bullshit.

Am I being ultra real and a little raw? YES! Face the reality of this situation, stop playing around and pivot. They’re showing us who they are – BELIEVE THEM!

Throw me a couple dollars if you’d like. 😁
