Rant on politics
WARNING: POLITICS and REVIEW
Just finished reading Philip Roth’s the Plot against America. Not as boring as Fatherland neither as philosophical the Man on the High Castle. Fatherland focuses more in Europe than in America but it’s really a crime novel. For some reason, only Stephen King and Philip Roth are the only writers that manage to portray bigotry and how it would be so easy for a racist, ultra-right president to enter the White House - and I don’t mean Trump. If it wasn’t Trump, it could be a Democrat, or any other Republican.
What most Americans fail to see that, McCartyism is still an open wound in US politics. As someone who has a state that allows left ideologies to be heard, looking to the US is like watching a dystopia unfold. It’s fucking terrifying and fascinating at the same time. But ,really, Biden is as much a “right-wing” religious guy that portrays himself as a “leftist” when he’s nothing but. I am not saying you shouldn’t vote for the guy. I just think your system for “diverse branch of electorates “ is failing miserably, and not because of COVID-19 or the chaos that the US politics has been.
Anyone that tries to bring socialist-democratic - or any help for the society in general - is deemed a “retarded liberal”, if people can’t even understand the word “liberalism” means. People are yelled, instead of being listened to. Fox News has contributed to this weird political climate. I can’t even grasp how a TV channel isn’t brought to some sort of court or judgement. Hatred incitement and extremist normalization should be crimes, right?
But no, it appears that being screamed that we’re “crazy feminist socialist Marxist” at and religious views pushed into politics is your normal nowadays
