Trumpilepsy: Dream-Dogma

[Abishai100]

I like meditating on the 'pedestrian metaphysics' of our overtly commerce-centric TrumpUSA, and I wonder how this celebrity-president will deal with OPEC.

So here's a mock dialogue between Shiva (Hindu god of destruction) and Kali (Hindu goddess of rage) about capitalism-evocative demonology representative (arguably) of 'American atheism.'

Isn't political fencing fun?

SHIVA: I'm obsessed with you...
KALI: Most men are...
SHIVA: You know what I mean; you're so...savvy!
KALI: Being savvy is not without its...responsibilities.
SHIVA: Oh yeah, you have to be an 'etiquette model.'
KALI: Correct. Maybe I'm oppressed by vanity.
SHIVA: Interesting. I can cure that.
KALI: How?
SHIVA: I'll take photographs of you but the photos will be respectful.
KALI: I see. So, no pornography?
SHIVA: Exactly!
KALI: You believe in the *magic* of photography?
SHIVA: I like Facebook.
KALI: Everyone does...
SHIVA: Hahaha.
KALI: What do you think of TrumpUSA?
SHIVA: It's alright. Commerce-centric, merchant-based, globalization-minded.
KALI: Trump used to be a casino owner...
SHIVA: Isn't that funny? Americans wanted a more shrewd rendition of Ross Perot!
KALI: I think you're right.
SHIVA: Maybe a commerce-minded President can detract nuclear war.
KALI: We'll see what Trump does with OPEC...
SHIVA: I'd rather praise credit cards than vigilantism!
KALI: What about Captain America (Marvel Comics)?
SHIVA: There's nothing wrong with 'dystopian storytelling.'
KALI: We'll see...
