A Heartless Nation

Jade Helm 15 is going on in Texas and other parts of the southwest and, if you're scoring at home, the US has still not invaded itself. It doesn't have to. The US, you probably know, is already fucking here!

Sheesh- these reichwingers are dumb. And, embarrassingly so.

I saw a meme where some yokel locals were posing with their assault weapons and the pic of them was juxtaposed with a squad of Navy SEAL's emerging from the surf with their assault weapons. And the caption said something about these hillbillies think they can take on our soldiers...

They can't, of course but it's more than because our soldiers are the best trained fighters on the planet. Our  armed forces men and women are the best but, that and a few trillion dollars will get you a draw in every war we've fought since the last one we won in 1945. And we had help winning that one. War is a business and we fight not for survival as a nation but, instead for profit. We're not kidding anybody but the 19 year old grunts who will fight the wars and the republicans that will support them until they come home. Republicans don't need a nuclear-armed Iran to go to war with Iran. They just need a republican president to drop a hat and yell, "GO!" Congressional republicans are set to reject an Obama-led nuclear disarming of Iran because they unabashedly want war with Iran for fun and profit. Story for another day.

Today's story is about how Clem Kadidlehopper and his militia buddies cannot defeat the US military.

Never mind the lack of talent- that's a given. What they completely lack is the heart.

If your whole reason for revolution is that you are pissed that a black man was legitimately elected president, you haven't suffered enough to be a revolutionary. The Russians, Chinese or the Vietnamese of the 20th century would shit on your revolution. They would wonder what the fuck you are are crying about. And you can add on gay marriage, abortion, the horrific taxing of millionaires, or the tyranny of teachers unions and you are only making yourself look like a bigger pussy.

You are a pussy if you'd take up arms against fellow citizens or your government for any of those- cough- reasons or, if you're a republican, (D) All Of The Above And Then Some.

Only in America could people get together and decide that the rich don't have enough, too many of our poorer citizens have too much and, we're mad as hell and let's have a revolution so we can still be the greatest country in the world!

If you think we need to do that, you really put the cunt in country.

If you think you can outfight the US Army, your balls are surely too big to fit in a network of tunnels that would be necessary for the secret movement of troops and supplies so you'll just have to face them down like John Wayne or Ted Nugent would do. What do you figure- maybe two weeks of camping out and fighting and then installing Chuck Norris as president and then things get back to normal? You fucking idiot. You just do not know.

Read up on Czars in Russia and how life was under them before you decide to go killing people because they want to raise the minimum wage. Study a little about how no major country- including us, Russia and England- has ever been able to conquer Afghanistan. Most of those people live like Bible-times and no super power can beat them.

Know why? Because they are fucking beyond tough because they have actually suffered for centuries. They might very well like to have first world problems. They don't know as they've never had them. They've never known the rights nor wrongs our nation's assholes want to piss on so cavalierly. I don't think they would fight or die for the things our idiots would. Remember- half of our country opted to fight to keep people as slaves just 150 years ago. People were willing to die so that relatively few people could amass fortunes via the free labor of others. Every other revolution or civil war you can think of was fought to free people. Ours was that yet also to keep some people enslaved. Only in America...

As a people, only Blacks and Native Americans have suffered here. It took a couple hundred years to conquer the Indians. Blacks arrived here already conquered but they have since suffered plenty. They would be a force to be reckoned with. They know real pain, all to up close and personal.

Guys named Chuck and Bubba with the latest in AR15 hardware, outside the Piggly Wiggly are not a force to be reckoned with. They are assholes who are probably best suited to shooting up schools. They do not have the stomach for war. They do not have the perseverance because they do not have the history of suffering that breeds the will and the necessity to fight. That only comes from real turmoil, not frivolous, media-inspired, political trauma.

The irony of this all is, while these wannabe commandos are jerking themselves off, fantasizing about revolution, we've actually been taken over by the corporations. The America they think they are losing, is already lost. They just don't know it.

A hundred years or so of ironic FEMA camps ought to toughen everybody up.
