J “From all sides and every corner of the political spectrum. Mostly White, because I am around mostly Whites. Mostly males, yet I am around enough females. The anger and the rage are angry and raging, palpable and deep-seated.”
K “Undigested anger. Undigested anger usually leads to and results in self-medication rather than self-expression. Some folks are tired of medicating themselves and are getting ready to express themselves.”

K “The United States of Polarization is descending and deteriorating into the United States of Apartheid. However, at some time, the two cohorts across the table are likely to find they have a common enemy and aligned interests. The ‘U’s’ who have been told they are to be removed from society and relegated to second class citizenship are getting restive and restless. They have had it. The ‘V’s’ may discern, one tiny truth at a time, that they have been knowingly deceived and intentionally injured by the nasty and nefarious alliance of government, industry and media. They will get more restive and restless. They will be profoundly unhappy.”
J “The ‘V’s’ have been patient long enough and have had it with the ‘U’s’. We are getting restless.”
K “For someone who always gets it, you don’t get it. The battalion of those who have been betrayed is larger and may be more virulent than the remaining small band who know that they have been deceived.”

K “I am watching people die who never really lived. They consumed as directed but were consumed by life. They collected possessions as directed but were possessed by their possessions. They never really did anything of substance or risk. They never really stood for anything before sitting down. Death is their only accomplishment.”
J “Better not to say anything to anyone.”
K “I don’t.”

There was a very cautious man
Who never laughed or played
He never risked, he never tried.
He never sang or prayed.
And when he one day passed away
His insurance was denied,
For since he never really lived,
They claimed he never really died.
[Anonymous poem]
“The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them are over. The moment the Men who wanted to be left alone are forced to fight back, it is a form of suicide. They are literally killing off who they used to be. Which is why, when forced to take up violence, these Men who wanted to be left alone, fight with unholy vengeance against those who murdered their former lives. They fight with raw hate, and a drive that cannot be fathomed by those who are merely play-acting at politics and terror. True terror will arrive at these people’s door, and they will cry, scream, and beg for mercy… but it will fall upon the deaf ears of the Men who just wanted to be left alone.” Author Unknown
