    Oh yes. As time goes by, i think many (if not most) right-wing politicians just came to conclusion that there are A LOT of stupid people, and to maintain a political career without much real political effort, they need to ramble about topics stupid people like. Currently in US it went off the rails so hard to the point it must be thoughtfully tailored for stupid part of population who finally find their purpose in life - to follow a figure who ramble within the line of their stupid mindset - and this is really one of results.

    Stupid people don’t care about any of political tasks anyway: healthcare, foreign policy, plans, financing, public sector all around them, overall wellbeing, etc. No, stupid people care about a figure to follow and frustrations to cope. So the administration behind and around trump just need to keep rambling about imaginary enemies which stupid people can blame for their own stupid life choices or to heal personal frustrations, they need to maintain a cultish figure, and again, this is one of results.

    Bottom line is that right-wing politics all around the world follow that lead, transform their political efforts into talking to stupid people who are easy to manipulate because of absolute lack of analytical thinking and stupid life-priorities which are easy to handle with just sour twitter posts instead of trying to make better society, which should be the main task of political figures. But right-wing politicians aren’t going for better society anyway, they just want money and nice private world for themselves fenced by corruption and private deals.

    It is embarrassing way to show in public, but it’s easiest way for politician to win seats in parliament, to parasite as a part of government, to be abolished of the laws by political and jurisdictional corruption - and if got struck with a big win, to get position to streak business deals on a government level, to bathe in more corruption which finally reads two words so yummy for right-wing politicians: money and power.

    And is there easier way to achieve money and power than to talk nonsense to stupid people? And so here we are.













  • several years ago main road on my way to work was closed for a month. alternative routes was bad and worse, so i reluctantly ditched car and tried cycling instead because cycling route was okay, hoping i will somehow handle that one month.

    quickly realized i’m rather enjoying cycling, month passed and i didn’t event thought about getting back in a car. i’m cycling ever since. commuting to and from work, cycling recreatively, doing 100km rides all around the area and the country, joined a club, enjoying every bit of cycling which makes me happy.

    the road maintenance overall changed me, led me to find something that fullfills me, breaks down the stress, make me happy, change my mindset and made me be more active.

    US politics affects whole world. their current elections in November could end up pretty much bad, and will affect the rest of the world. large part of EU public oppinon, local elections, and politics today, is under US influence. it is important how the US will be shaped in next four years, because it will affect rest of us.

    also, US conservatives control, instruct, guide and finantially support conservatives in europe, provide them knowhow and practices to manipulate their societies, move closer to power and manipulate laws permanently. it’s going on for years. having conservative administration in power in the US, just spreads their wings towards societies and countries around the world - rise of conservativism in EU since trump’s coming to power is significant, and those groups all use the same methods, same words and practices, spread the same fears (conservative groups of Poland, Croatia, Hungary etc, are led, instructed and finantially supported by US conservative groups). so US elections surely aren’t just a local thing. it’s very global.
