We're in a Revenge Movie

[Mac1958]

This moment is like a revenge movie. The hero victim suffers years of brutal physical and psychological torture in the basement of some shabby house at the hands of some demented sicko. He finally escapes and comes back to take revenge by doing all the same things to the sicko that had been done to him. Starring Christian Bale as the hero and Ralph Fiennes as the sicko.

I'm just trying to figure out how MAGA people were so terribly tortured.

I certainly get Trump's motivations. In his mind, he's never done anything wrong, and anyone who holds him accountable for anything is mean and nasty and must pay the price. That's just standard psychosis and immature narcissism.

But the joy the MAGA people get from this revenge and carnage is different. It appears that, in their minds, they've been brutally tortured for a long time and are taking great pleasure in watching their captors suffer, convinced that the world is being cleansed while it's all burning down around them. This isn't about fairness or justice. What is this?

I know there will be the standard personal insults and attacks and deflection here, and that's fine, but I wonder if anyone has a theory.

Trump's America—Land of Cruelty and Vengeance

Yet, as cruel and terrible as Trump has been and will undoubtedly continue to be, what's even worse is the fact that so many millions of Americans embrace his ideology, believing, as the antagonist Gordon Gekko once said that greed is good, and that our first and only priority is to look out for ourselves. If that means abandoning our allies, so be it. If it means mischaracterizing DEI efforts to maintain white hegemony, also OK. And if it means cutting off crucial medications to other countries, that's not our problem, they reason.

The MAGA world doesn't take issue with Trump going after political opponents or people in the Justice Department he doesn't like either because, as they see it, the world is a harsh and corrupt place, and no one else would do any different. They race to Trump because they see him as their glorious leviathan—the monster whose wings they can take shelter under to feel powerful. He justifies their every negative notion about the world, and for that they love him.

What they're all missing is that truly great nations are compassionate nations, and right now we're pretty far from greatness.

Republican voters are laid back and relaxed compared to many Progressive Socialist voters. America is not going to reduce the size of government to 1%. It is estimated that there is about a 25%/30% or so of corruption in government spending. I type this because that is what it was in the 1980's when there was an attempt to cut fat from the budget. They cut a small percentage but not a lot.

This time, justice and revenge are the same exact thing. Revenge against criminals, is justice.

Out of curiousity, when you post the standard personal attacks against Trump, why would you expect others to change when you clearly won't yourself?

BTW, I take it you believe you have never been wrong, about anything, anywhere, at any time. amiright?
