Instead of driving the dog out, the farmer came in on Tuesday petted the dogs and gave them permission to stay and continue.
In Aesop’s fables, it is all about dogs. Today, it is about the billionaires and centimillionaires. These scavenger oligarchs are generally white, failsons1, and superfluous men2 with more money than they can spend. Because of their early privilege or wealth, they tend to be isolated and regressive intellectually, emotionally, and socially. In short, they tend to be monumentally infantile, and stupid.
We know who the dogs are. Those we see often are the Murdochs, Musk, Thiel, and Bezos. Some pack members have faded from view including The Koch, Uihlein, DeVos, and Adelson families. Others avoid recognition, but they are members in good standing.
Trump has never been a pack member in good standing. He exhibited imposter syndrome behavior almost daily. It permeated everything he did his entire life. The pack could not tolerate that sign of weakness.
But he was, and is, useful, in part because he is extravagantly regressive, stupid, and failing. He was, and is, the trumpet issuing a clarion call of hatred and self-destruction that persuaded Americans to let the dogs stay in the manger. So, the dogs will stay and continue to demonstrate how blind, foolish, and incompetent they are because;
- They do not see, understand, or imagine the work that fills the manger.
- The longer they stay, the more they puke, poop, and shed, making the manger unlivable, untenable and unusable for everybody, including those that filled it.
- As they deny the manger to others, the manger contents will begin to resemble junk.
- And, there is nothing so worthwhile as spending your life as a junk yard dog.
- As the manger degrades, they will turn on each other, creating even more poisonous remains.
- As the manger degrades and empties, the farmer will turn on them with a life-threatening vengeance.
In Aesop’s fable, the farmer saved the day. We did not. We turned the dogs loose. They cannot plow. They cannot plant. They cannot harvest. They cannot fill the manger.
Their archetype is Putin, the perfect model of a junk yard dog. Witness how many of his fellow scavengers have fallen out of windows. Trump loves Putin and Putin loves Trump, but his real bromance is with Musk. With Trump vegetating at the desk, and Putin/Musk pulling the strings, we will achieve Russia.
Predictions are difficult, especially about the future, but this story will not end well for several of the scavenger dogs. Revenge is mine sayeth the Lord3, but I predict that we will borrow it. Not next week, but sooner rather than later.
P.S. - I am reading about all the reasons that Democrats lost so badly. It is all bunkum. If you voted for Trump, you voted for fascism, and you knew it. There is no good reason for doing so and you do not deserve any respect nor pity for what you, and your family, are about to experience.
