That Republican who's running for president.
I no longer pay attention to politics, but he's impossible to avoid. The media plasters his image everywhere. I continually think, "why don't they just ignore him? He'd just fade away if they did. The media is all he's got." But they can't. They're as addicted to him as the American public is. Why? All the answers his followers give for why they like him are ridiculous and not based in reality. The real reason is that most Americans have no emotional skills whatsoever. They don't know how to process any of the emotion they feel inside. So their insides are a complete mess and they aren't going to get any better. But that feels awful! What to do? Avoid. Do anything possible to not be aware of that awful feeling inside. So they run to any form of drama they can find. The more obnoxious something is, the better it serves as a distraction. Cue what's his name. He's a great distraction. And he knows it. All he does is say stupid stuff so that people have something to talk and argue about. And he'll ride this all the way to the presidency. And then the American people will have the president they deserve. All because emotions are scary.

That Republican running for president reminds me of that ESPN personality, who is about to get paid stupid money by Fox Sports to spew stupid hot takes. I actively try to avoid and ignore him nowadays. If you don't know who I'm talking about, he's the one whose name rhymes with Dip Payless. Same with Pollen Cowturd. So many people seem to despise them and yet shower them with all kinds of attention in voicing their displeasure, turning them into almost-entertaining jokes of figures. That's what they crave! They are playing people. And, sadly, they're succeeding...
ReplyDeleteI agree completely. I believe the opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. So I've taught myself to ignore those people who are poisoning our culture, so that I'm not adding to the problem. Great comment Packey. Thank you.
