Here's a mock dialogue between Shiva (Hindu god of destruction) and Deformer (a fictional deity signifying a brooding meditation on 'philosophical deformities') about terrorism, capitalism, and political/cultural angst.
Such a dialogue is representative of the commerce angst associated with 'TrumpUSA' rhetoric and globalization-politics contract troubles.
Is President Trump adept at handling new age anarchy?
I think this question will be answered when the world sees how the Trump Administration deals with Sunni-Shia politics in Syria and Iran...
Who will be the American mastermind in Trump's cabinet?
Nevertheless, hail to the chief!

SHIVA: The biggest anathema associated with politics-related troubles/terrorism is torture.
DEFORMER: Prisoners-of-War, detained spies, and political hostages have been tortured.
SHIVA: Torture is like rape, since there is no recourse for undetected incidents.
DEFORMER: There are many forms of torture --- burning, beating, deprivation, isolation, etc., etc.
SHIVA: They're all bad, but the worst is the pulling of fingernails or smashing of fingertips with hammers.
DEFORMER: Terrorism and torture reveals the flaws in human nature and the disgust towards fanaticism.
SHIVA: Christian crusaders and Islamic jihadists alike have engaged in fanaticism and persecution.
DEFORMER: When you're being tortured in enemy-hands, you're being forced to deal with malice.
SHIVA: The Trump Administration will have to deal with criticisms that America neglects global troubles.
DEFORMER: Because Donald Trump was a capitalism-baron, many believe he is 'commerce-biased.'
SHIVA: As we know, commerce can blind us to the realities of religious intolerance and bigotry.
DEFORMER: Correct; media, advertisements, and marketing ignore the problems of sectarian violence.
SHIVA: Burning people alive is torture, but it has also been used as a form of protest and in artwork.
DEFORMER: Fire is a mysterious and haunting element, and there are views regarding its 'metaphysics.'
SHIVA: Well, there's nothing metaphysical about whipping someone to death or pulling out his fingernails.
DEFORMER: The hands are sensitive, and the fingernails are protective coatings for grasping and scratching.
SHIVA: Correct; so when we hurt a human being's hands, we are making a direct statement about savagery.
DEFORMER: If political hostages are tortured publicly during Trump's presidency, people will hate capitalism.
SHIVA: True, and that's because capitalism is 'easy' to mistrust and 'use' as a justification for wrath.
DEFORMER: That's because commerce is contract-driven rather than ritual-driven.
SHIVA: The American horror film avatar Freddy Krueger wears a glove fitted with metal-blade claws.
DEFORMER: Krueger uses his blades to scratch and slash and represents pure savage mischief/violence.
SHIVA: Pop-culture 'avatars' may be 'signposts' of undesirable behaviors and can teach us about kindness.
DEFORMER: Perhaps, therefore, these 'avatars' serve as gods of 'dystopian deformity.'
