(8,200 posts)There is one and only one solution to the dilemma in which we have been embroiled. That is the total destruction of the Republican Party and the insidious propaganda machine that has totally led to disillusionment of millions of our fellow citizens. It is a machine that appeals to the worst aspects of people who grasp at a cause for their own dilemma. A dilemma that is totally of their own making. It robs people of the realization that their destiny is total of their own making and can not be laid at the feet of scapegoats. It is situation that is as old as mankind. They are the same demagogues who peddled their ware of hatred and division throughout time. Many of those who are yet with us experienced the tragedy and deadly cost of the rise of the fascists whose message of hatred brought about a catastrophe in which millions perished before it was crushed at great cost. Will we allow yet a similar tragedy to be our heritage? Unfortunately most probably.
The massive demonstrations that we are experiencing are not solely a response to the systemic prejudice that plagues our nation. It is deeper than that and even more frightening. It is a outpouring of the frustration that has griped our nation in which those who actually produce its wealth have been robbed of their fair share of the pie. A pie that has been seen the massive concentration of the wealth in the top meniscal portion of the people as the share for those who create it diminish. The scenario is the same. The stage is set for the entry of the demagogues who are the apologists for the wealthy greedy vermin that the cause of the suffering and dilemma. It can be Jews, Blacks, Hispanics or todays liberals. It matters not whoever is the convenient victim of the hour. It is like a fated Greek tragedy in which the victims blindly and whole heartedly cooperate in their own destruction.

Only explanation possible.
But you left one out - using the Bible as a stage prop. Upside down, even. Has the man no respect?
