Insecurity again?

Those who force their policies upon a population feel insecure about whether their policies are sound—or else they simply don’t care that they are not.

Kind of, yes. Good question. It's a comedic paraphrasing, plus a response from the press that SHOULD have been. Read this brief article please, especially paragraphs 8 and 9: thehill.com/homenews/adm...

Let’s stop simply saying, “tariffs,” 
and take care every time just to say, “taxes,”
or let’s say, “tariff-taxes,”
a redundancy that creates a needed emphasis.
And/or fill in the following blank with a name, 
“_____’s tariff-taxes,”
every time, please.

Further Points Regarding Insecurity

It is the insecure who fret about constructs
like manhood and masculinity 
supposedly being attacked;

others tend to define these terms within themselves, 
and they do not clamor to meet imagined parameters
around persons they feel are the same or better
nor do they demand sameness from others
whom some might see as similar or lesser.

This post is, in part, related to the following earlier post:

Let’s not call people “strongmen,”
especially when they are obviously insecure, 
which is why they covet power 
in the first place: 
such insecure-men take 
all of the unjust, antidemocratic, inhumane, 
and sociopathic actions that they do 
because they feel insecure in their positions 
and their largely illegitimate grips on power.

Even the word “agent” doesn’t quite cover it.

Stop finding excuses

It’s obvious when an American doesn’t simply have an admiration or affinity for Vlad the Corruptor—but is acting as his subject, servant, vassal. 

It doesn’t take a genius to figure this out. 
The evidence is overwhelming and in nearly every posture, position, and policy pushed.

When a party’s “priests of power” say, 
“WAR IS PEACE
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strength is ignorance
“Slavery is freedom”
Peace is war,
what is your response? 
 
“Was it possible that [people] could swallow [the party’s lying]? . . . Yes, they swallowed it.” “Have you forgotten about doublethink?” Or, the “memory hole”?
 
In the light of all that has been happening in recent years to control news, books, and information itself, consider another slogan or modus operandi of a party worshiping power: 
“Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.”
 
“Nothing was your own except the few cubic centimeters inside your skull.” 
However, “[t]houghtcrime was not a thing that could be concealed forever.”

The causes of most of our nation’s and its people’s ills,
unsound theories, hateful thinking, and so on
are the shows—and they are mere SHOWS—and publications
dumping antidemocratic writing, audio, and visuals all around us,
every day, year after year:

partisan messaging purporting to be news/journalism;
political ads; and talk shows on TV, radio, and the Internet, including podcasts.

Some are simply willing to grab money and power
by feeding people poison—and it is very lucrative.

We’ve all been witnessing a political party that is… 

anti Venezuelan people/lives,

anti immigrants of many ethnicities, in fact—a position causing the destruction of the family (parents and children, or whomever).

anti Ukrainian people/lives,
anti Palestinian people/lives,
anti Muslim people/lives generally—and most anyone not purporting to be Christian, 
anti Black lives mattering too,
anti LGBTQIA+ folks/lives,
anti life of the mother,
anti life-saving science, 
anti healthcare for all,
anti low-income people,
anti children and others in dire need—of our AID, and yet

pro-pathogen/illness-spreading
pro-war (nearly all wars and offensive actions with which we’ve been involved in most of our lifetimes),
pro-guns (anti gun safety/regulation),
pro-execution by police, vigilantes, and rogue actors, due process be damned
pro-torture,
pro-death-penalty, 
pro-li—  WHAT?

Wait.  Actually, “pro-li” sounds about right.
