THE TRUE ENEMY

In the last two weeks alone we've had a trump loving fanatic conservative sending bombs to trump's critics, a racially motivated shooting with multiple casualties at a Krogers grocery store, a white hate group called the "proud boys" beating up gays and minorities and today, a mass shooting at a synagogue in Pittsburgh with an assault style rifle. Seriously people, can't you see who the enemy is here? Can't you see who the bad people really are? It isn't the liberals who want to make sure you have health care and clean air and water. It isn't the brown people who are trying to escape the political upheaval (that we caused) in their own countries and who are seeking asylum here in the "land of the free." The true enemy of this country lives within. The true enemy of this country is a domestic enemy. The true enemy of this country is trump, his financial backers and his brainwashed supporters. The true enemies are the easily manipulated, scared, paranoid, under-educated, racist caucasians. The true enemies are the conservative, republican political machine and the evangelical christian religion that provokes and inspires domestic terrorism. This country is not being destroyed by outsiders it is being destroyed from within. The overly wealthy 1% is fanning the hatred and keeping the country divided by pulling the strings of the easily manipulated among us through fox news propaganda and religious, (mostly evangelical,) preaching. Alex Jones, Hannity, The Drudge Report, Rush Limbaugh, Michael Savage, Laura Ingram, Franklin Graham, Pat Robertson and the rest are all mouth pieces for this, "american taliban," and guilty of throwing gasoline on this fire. And trump is currently their leader!! The weakest minds of these easily manipulated puppet peons readily cross the line from ideology to action. It doesn't take much to push them over the edge and make them go from plastering their van with right wing bumper stickers to sending mail bombs. It doesn't take much to push them over the edge and make them grab their beloved guns and kill those that they perceive as being the enemy. If an epiphany doesn't happen soon we are doomed. If we don't collectively wake up and realize that education, science and pragmatism is the only way to prevail over the ignorance that is fueling the violence we will collapse from within and, just like businesses such as Sears have ceased to exist because they didn't see the internet coming so too will the USA cease to exist because we will not have seen the coming of our own demise.
