Paul McCartney prophesied the internet in these lyrics:

       all the lonely people
    where do they all come from?
       all the lonely people
     where do they all belong?

ahhh, look at all the lonely people!

Two days from masses aligned in opposition parties pretending to be exercising a genuine voting system despite there being no proof to it being genuine save for the "winners" repeatedly saying it is.

It's not even remotely close to auditable, because on top of it obviously not being technically auditable, any auditors would come from amongst us, meaning they'd necessarily be lying/cheating sacks of shit inebriated on their own self concept.

Pretense's finest hour!

Back to the burden of individuality.

That one spark of seeming person/self/I opposite all the seeming rest, inevitably hurting itself back to realizing it and the rest were but a dream, which goes poof and it's gone, reversion to the bliss of absence of notionality until the next spark.

How funny to have see

a BlueDwarf post entitled "Other Social Media Sites are Noticing that Blue Dwarf's Posting has Slowed"

referencing

this Midnight Pub post of mine entitled "singin' some dwarfy blues".

I had a brief existence at Blue Dwarf, but deleted my account after maybe a week because it felt like a club whose primary purpose was to pretend I didn't' exist.

Not that *that's* ever happened before.... <rolls eyes>

But it's okay. This fucking world is, as expressed above, part of the self-referential hurt programme covertly designed to teach the foolishness of embracing this fucking world by way of an imposter called "I" (and a few other things..).

I've never experienced such a display of mass/collective hysterical insanity in unison about seeing things that aren't there, e.g. "Hilter", "Fascism". Classic case of a mob murmuring itself into deeper/greater hysteria by "geometric-ing down" on previous murmurings. They clearly ran out of "word rope" with which to hand themselves in public long ago, e.g. where do you go from Hitler? Satan? Then what? Beelzeehitlan? Maybe uppercase it and concatenate a perpetually increasing number of exclamation marks, e.g. "BEELZEEHITLANOHMYFUCKINGGOD!!!!"?

I mean, we all become used to suffering and/or humoring fools given they're typically the majority in any setting, but this time it's feeling like all out avoiding them altogether is in order, because there's no communicating with them. I mean, one of my wife's cousins screamed at me for merely saying the word 'Trump' in her presence, etc., etc. Unfuckinbelievable....

It amazes me that people keep wishful-thinking this democracy thing is has any legitimacy whatsoever.

Oh and, as you implied, it's the 'winners' who support it's validity, not the losers, of course, they get to claim fraud.

By the way, I learned "democracy" is a "certificate of origin" (kind of like champagne): if it comes from Washington it is democracy, otherwise it's called dictatorship.

In vim:

Yeah, but speaking of democracy specifically. I am amazed that people actually defend this "democracy" as if it were by any measure remotely anything resembling what the etymological meaning would suggest.

Well right... I was just trying to be obtusely humorous in accord with my arguably demented nature....
