From my series, America: A Discourse. I made a collection of erasures in response to Trump's first term in office, sourcing text from series of lectures Swami Vivekananda gave in America. Read more at www.amyparrish.com
AMERICA: A Discourse CENTRAL SECRET: half-crazy lunatic. here for getting political rights. vain speculation. equally illogical and equally irrational. death-like grasp. the nation that forgets. for a little fame. controlling. knowledge-absolute. illogical. morality. realise. whole world is a lunatic. another sort of man. with their dollars. politician. every word of it is wrong. worst fears. gigantic organisations undertaking to subvert the whole of existing institutions. manifestation of power. cut the throats of his breatheren if there is dirt. no patience to wait. he went to washington, shook hands with the president. the crudest form. cannot give you its reason. knows nothing. unknowable, the ever unknown, herein is the search, herein are the inquiries, here are the facts. the only proof of it. this state of the mind makes him, a death nation. its authority. worse than any brute. historical fact. frightened by fanatics. fight and reason. the destroyer. american news. crimes. protect themselves. times of dissent. will speak before the congress. countrymen as gods. of the united states, the american nation. throw both away. shaking hands with the president. money, name, or fame. quarrels over little details and fights. foreign policies. dependent on the will of the supreme ruler. the two extremes. makes a nation weak and degraded. CONCLUSION: I believe in patriotism, and I also have my own ideal of patriotism. plea for tolerance. there are holes in this national ship, this society of ours, groaning under the tyranny of the president. tyranny of the strong over the weak. see the reality. do not obey him. vote.
