Aging Out

Diane Feinstein is symbolic of a system well past its prime and sliding into oblivion. Along with Old Joe Biden and the rest of the senile, sclerotic "leadership" of the world's late great superpower, these oldsters lack the basic life-animating spark to even pretend they are in control of events. Or even aware they are happening. And Liberal "Democratic" Capitalism in its death-throes is not a beast you want octogenarians taking care of. "Caressing the sharks teeth" is one thing, playing with a fatally wounded shark quite another. It should be pretty clear by now that these ancient managers are comfortable with leaving a planet on which millions of mostly poor, brown skinned people are doomed to a terrible death. Doomed thanks to the efforts of these very same managers. They will shake their bald, wrinkly heads in resigned sadness. But their plans just don't include all these surplus humans. And these ancients can rest comfortably in the knowlege that when they pass there will be magnificent state funerals and glowing eulogies praising their selfless works. It won't be easy to ignore the shit show just beyond the palace gates, but if you get the camera angle right you can avoid the stinking, bloated corpses or burning hills or flooded streets. And if you vote for the hillbilly you too can at least rest comfortably with the knowlege you fought back against "the machine", whatever that is. You resisted by following orders. You are a gallant, noble, patriot gravedigger, digging your own grave.
