FUCK YOUR DENIAL OF THIS REALITY

Denial is a choice. Quit acting the victim.
Wanting to deny these stories as real is a normal reaction to this horror.

I assure you - these types of stories are very real. They happen. They ARE happening in your community.

And it was always the rich, powerful, educated fuckers who did this - in my direct experience.

We are the adults on scene and until we pony up to pay the bill - Trump and Co will just keep dragging us down, raping us and destroying us.

He is the manifestation of us.

He is what Osama knew lay hidden inside our country, waiting to come forth.

That’s what we have to face.
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
But this was always the outcome since the day we invaded Iraq. Trump is the manifestation of our collective guilt. He is America.

Until we truly reckon with the ugly truth - none of this stops. None of this ends how we think it should. Just how it will.

No one’s coming to the rescue.

That was never the plan.

The plan was always to tear whatever we built, down into rubble.

How do you think the Billionaire Class was able to become an actual thing?

The whole point is to wreck us. That’s how Trump came to power. Why he’s destroying the world order that gave us victory.

Ok, I do. Twenty years of bombing brown people is a great way to both de-sensitize AND radicalize.

Obama couldn’t win. He got some great shit done but race is always of prime importance in this country.

15 years the GOP has had to come up with something better than ACA.

Nope.

And the corporations were pretty quickly going, “huh. How do we exploit these idiots to keep them divided and incapable of passing basic social welfare practices that would grant them the ability to tell us to shut the fuck up?”

Well, shit, I mean, do I gotta say it?

/18
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
Remember man, or manette, it’s all relative - as in, “it ain’t our place to criticize.”

Anyrate - the corporations were really ecstatic at how 2009 was turning out. And we had a brief little revolt and elected a Black Man to President.

/17
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
But that’s ok, because by then we also learned that corporations are people too. Who like to share their opinion. A lot. And we have to respect them for their opinion because they bought up a lot of the debt Bush and Co ran up.

So much so that when their banks crashed - we saved them!

/16
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
THEN those mortgages and the all the loan dollars got called in and we went fucking BUST.

2008. If you were there, you know.

It’s where we learned a stark reality -
We will accept penury and mistreatment if it keeps us housed.

And fed.

The surplus was long gone.

/15
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
So shit was ok for another couple years.

But those 110% mortgages? Yeah, turns out it’s a BAD idea to buy a house AND be given a check for it at the same time.

It was fucking insane. Everything was fucking insane.

We went from a victory surplus in the 1990s to a war deficit in the 2000s

/14
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
So every tax paying family in 2094 got a $300 check. And Bush won re-election. And gay marriage passed. And the Endless War raged on. And people bought houses on mortgages of 110%.

No, really. This happened. All at the same time.

Everything’s relative man.

/13
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
The government didn’t have money to send all us taxpayers.

But China did!

So Bush called up Hu Jintao and said, “Hey man, can I short sell you a few trillion in US bonds?”

And Hu was all, “Oh? You want China to bail you out? At 11 points on the dollar?”

“Yeah bud, we’re good for it.”

/12
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
Bush needed something to win the election. The war was a fucking disaster. Everyone was starting to get tired of the Daily Danger Color.

So he said, “I’ll buy them! With checks from the government!”

But, see, we were waging war. At a billion or so a day.

/11
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
So, less than two years after invading a country for no good reason - we were told three things:

1) everyday was another day for acterrorist attack
2) gays marrying is bad
3) continue with life unrestrained

This was interesting.

No, really, it was.

/10
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
The problem with Endless War is how you SUSTAIN endless war.

We weren’t interested in actually waging the war, we just moved it to the back page.

And Bush and the Republicans said, “Look! Rabbit!”

And the Culture Wars became active.

That was 2003.

January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
The problem was that we couldn’t acknowledge that, “Whoops! Made a mistake. We’ll be leaving now” and then forked over a shit ton of money and ran for the exit.

Osama knew we wouldn’t and that was the point.

So we waged an Endless War.

/8
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
No, really, we knew before a year had passed that, “Oh, umm, Iraq doesn’t have those weapons and had nothing to do with 9/11.”

But that’s a big costly mistake. So we of course doubled down. We would rebuild what we destroyed.

It was an interesting way of doing things.

/7
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
Which is what Osama bin Laden wanted us to do. He masterminded 9/11 to get us to just invade Iraq, murder several million on camera and collectively lose our shit.

It was a brilliant bit of strategy and planning in all honesty.

We, of course, quickly learned that the invasion was a bad idea.
/6
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
Instead of taking a breath and asking ourselves WHY a terror organization attacked us so brutally - we latched on to the laziest explanation possible.

And we invaded Iraq because, well, fuck - we’d been waging war on them so long it was just the easiest solution.

/5
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
So when Al Queda blew up our world on 9/11 - we didn’t know what to do. We didn’t know how to perceive the actual versus the implied threat.

Bush told us we were at War on Terror.

Huh. Waging conflict on an emotion that tends to drive the conflict.

Nobody knew what the fuck to do.

/4
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
What that meant was “everyone’s experience was relative, not fixed.”

We ignored the genocide the Clinton Administration was carrying out in Iraq because - the Iraqis couldn’t hurt us. They didn’t have a Mutual Assurancd of Destruction with us. They just had a dictator and no fly zones.

/3
January 21, 2026 at 8:50 PM
By this, I mean, Mutually Assured Destruction. Nuclear Winter. The End of Humanity.

The threat was gone. We Millenials were the first generation to look at world free of threat. There was no Commie boogeyman anymore.

We grew up with the understanding that life was relative.
