Looking at Biden gibbering nonsense on my television set I experience this spooky, surreal state of consciousness. I can only describe it as being a very disturbing awareness that what I am watching is actually real, but at the same time that surely it cannot be - not, at least, in a rational, ordered world. Then I get pissed off and blame the Americans? "How could they ever have allowed this madness to happen - I think to myself- Why have they allowed this ridiculous "Clown "Prince of the Democrats" to fumble, blither and blunder within striking distance of the Oval Office "? Why are million and millions of White (European) Americans going to drink "Kool Aid" and vote Democrat on 3rd November? How is i, exactly,t that so many people who are, on average, civilized, reasonable human beings, will have no qualms at all about intentionally entrusting the codes to America's (nuclear) "football to an addle - pated, geriatric, nit-wit and sexual deviant.
Why would ANY ONE vote Democrat? Why would ANY ONE vote for an "off- the- the- pixies" POTUS, who could wake up one Monday morning - think it's October 1962 again -, then lose his temper in a dementia-tantrum, and order a 10 X ICBM strike on Cuba, and "that dog- faced- pony- soldier", Castro". (One a personal note, I wouldn't trust "Sleepy Joe" to walk my pet wiener dog around the the block ! God only knows what might happen, I'd likely never see my wiener dog again, or" Uncle Joe" might decide that he is cute and start sniffing the fur on his rump (and scare the living heck out of my wiener) - or worse, give him a nonconsensual [I]"bone"[I]. It doesn't bear thinking about ! Another thing that gets right on my nipples is that many Americans who will vote Democrat/Biden (if he doesn't get the chop before the 3rd of November) are ignorant millennials and Gen- Z -ers who have never, ever been taught any real history at high school or College. Polls of millennials voting intentions that have been conducted over the last 3 years show a stable figure of about 70% of US millennials who said that they would vote socialist. That's a worry given that there are currently about 73 MILLION millennials in the US. I have relatives who are millennials (I'm a "Boomer")and when we met at at family functions, like Christmas or Easter, I often discuss politics with the (because today's kids are quite interested in politics and have some very firm views on things). Here's an example of a typical conversation we might have..

UNCLE DACHSHUND
You do realize that the American Democratic Party in 2020 is an extreme left socialist organization. Right" ?
TOMMY (my nephew aged 20)
"Yeah, so what, that's cool. Only it's not socialism, it's PROGRESSIVISM."
UNCLE D
"Can I tell you that what you call "progressivism" in America today, I mean politicians like Beto O'Rourke and Elizabeth Warren, is just a re-booted version of 20th - century socialism which was basically Marxism" And that goes for Bernie Sanders and AOC, as well. They're Marxist socialists ? Did you know that ?
TOMMY
"Nope, so what" ? What's the big deal anyway ? "
UNCLE D
Well, the "big deal" is that Karl Marx's socialist theory never worked in the real world. Different governments tried socialism all over the world, in 24 countries actually, and it screwed up - BIG TIME - EVERY TIME in all of them.(And) do you know that Marxist socialist regimes ended up killing over 120,000,000 people and starving, torturing, imprisoning an untold number of others, and I'm talking about the deaths of civilians not combat soldiers here"? Also, BTW, 120,000,000; is a very CONSERVATIVE estimate of how many people (men, women, children and even infants) socialist regimes actually murdered in the 20th century.
TOMMY
" A HUNDRED AND TWENTY MILLION ??!! Hey, that's pure BS, and you know it, Uncle Dachshund - it's gotta be. You know, you shouldn't go around making up creepy, ugly shit like that - its bad Karma !"
[B]UNCLE DACHSHUND
" No ! No ! its TRUE, it REALLY happened for a FACT !"
TOMMY
"Dude, don't you know that there're no such things as "FACTS"?, There are only really "OPINIONS". It's your OPINION that socialism killed 120,000,000 people in the 20th century, and that's all it is You're welcome to your OPINION but its creepy and bit sick, and no one else I know has weird opinions like that. And besides, stuff that happened in the 20th century is history now, and there's no such thing as history, as far as I'm concerned history is purely fiction.
UNCLE D
Really ? Well let me tell you something else. Not only did socialism kill all those people, it very often killed them in the most horrific ways you could imagine. In China, in 1966, Chairman Mao Zedong (Chairman of the Chinese Communist Party) launched what is known as "The Cultural Revolution" in China . This revolution was inspired by a communist/ political ideology that Mao developed himself. It was basically Marxist- Leninism, though he modified for a China which was, at the time, still a pre-industrial nation. Mao's soldiers were called the "Red Guard", most of them were young college-aged kids. Mao's socialist ideology taught his soldiers in the Red Guard to absolutely hate and revile his "counter-revolutionary" enemies. It didn't take much for someone to be branded a counter-revolutionary, if you were a middle-class school teacher, or business owner, or a college professor, say, then you were pretty much a counter-revolutionary - an enemy of "the people" When "enemies of the people" were captured, thousands upon thousands were executed. (And) They were executed using the most barbaric methods, including: beheading; live burial; drowning; boiling; disemboweling; cutting out organs such as the heart, liver, genitalia; slicing off large pieces of flesh, strapping sticks of dynamite to the chest and detonating them that's not all. According to Chairman Mao Zedong's socialist ideology, simply killing the enemy was not enough, it was necessary to completely destroy them. This resulted in thousands of Mao's enemies being cannibalized. The Red Guard, after torturing and killing their victims are known to have eaten their: feet; hearts; brains; kidney and genitals. They also held frequent human flesh Bar-B-Ques and invited their friends and families to come and join the feasting. Some victims who were cannibalized were cut and skinned while they were still alive. So what do you think off that?
TOMMY
What do I think ?! I think that what you just said is totally disgusting and gross, and nothing like that ever happened, man. It's all just depraved shit that you- or whoever told it to you- cooked up for some crazy reason. None of that stuff ever happened !
UNCLE D
Yes, it DID ! In fact, one of Cultural Revolution's bigger massacres took place in August, 1968, in a region of China called, Guangxi, and it was followed up with a massive human flesh Bar-B-Que! And that's a FACT !
TOMMY
That just your sicko OPINION, because its NOT fact, it's purely fiction. Myth and fiction, that's all it is - just one big and very ugly story that's all made-up and never happened.
UNCLE D
And how do you know that ?
[B]TOMMY[/B
]
Because we can never know what really happened in Guangxi in the August of 1968 you're talking about, can we? We weren't there. We don't discover history, we invent it, we manufacture it, we create it. We can't look back into the past and see it/experience it as it actually was. We can't look back into 1968 into some place that was called "Guangxi" in China. I'm standing here in the present in August, 2020, in America and I can only "see" things through I culture that I am presently living in - the Western culture of the US in 2020. I can't break out of it - its like I'm inside a cocoon. I can't ever see history as it was in China in 1968 during the "Cultural Revolution", no one can, and that includes you. You can never ever go back an atd be present Guangxi in August , 1968, and anything that you believe happened there will be nothing but your own (present culture) culture reflected back at you. And because you live in a Trump-loving, conservative, cultural cocoon, I'm not surprised you believe in this fictional account of socialist atrocities that took place in China in 1968. I mean, were you actually there, in person, to see these horrors?
UNCLE D
No.
TOMMY
Well ?
UNCLE D
There's lots of hard evidence to verify that what I said is completely factual. This shit happened, man l It's all TRUE !
TOMMY
Ha !, Ha!, Ha!....True ? There is no such thing as OBJECTIVE TRUTH, Dufus! There is no such thing as a hard FACT, facts are flexible, they change all the time. There is no such thing as OBJECTIVE HISTORY - HISTORY is just FICTION...MYTH.... it's not real; like I said, we just make it up!
UNCLE D
So that's what they're teaching you college now is it?
TOMMY
Yup. Guess so.
UNCLE D
And what class did you learn it in?
TOMMY
"Cultural Studies", with Prof Marcuse. He's really cool!
UNCLE D
"Cultural Studies" !! That's nothing but code for a pile of neo-Marxist/ Postmodernist/ post-structuralist/ SOCIALIST horse shit !! The people that teach it are COMMIE PINKOS who hate America Do you know that!!
TOMMY
Erm, Uncle Dachshund, I think maybe you need to sit down and chill out for a while, you face has gone all red and there's little bits of spit flying out of your mouth, dude.
