Black and White
Insanity of black and white,
Simple solutions
To complex issues.
The heavy hand,
A show of force,
A set of rules,
Severe punishment.
Fake news,
Disinformation,
Propaganda,
Feeding a philosophy:
Winners and losers,
Rich and poor,
Powerful and weak,
A worthy elite,
A deserving poor.
Every regime
Requires its scapegoats.
Every regime
Promises redemption.
Every regime
Is put there by the same,
Opher – 20.11.2024
I look at the election of Trump and despair. Once again we elect a megalomaniac into office. We expect a billionaire to care about the poor. We ignore the tax cuts for the wealthy and hang on the vacuous promises.
Make America Great Again. As if.
We are offered stupid black and white, simplistic solutions to impossibly complex problems; with the obvious intent of gaining power and robbing the system to create even greater inequality.
Forget morality. There is none.
It is so transparent; so blatant.
Drain the swamp? He is turning the whole country into his swamp – a swamp built on unrestricted greed and lust for power.
Isn’t that completely clear?
