High School Student Government Hacks -- Deja Vu All Over Again
When I hear Gerald Celente comparing our politicians with the High School Student Government Hacks that we all despised for being brownnosers and ass-kissing suckups, I cheer.
I am watching as I write this, the Republican Convention, and it is deja vu all over again for me. Seems like everybody on the TV screen is one of these a-holes. Or their enablers. It disgusts me that these people are our 'leadership'. They are all hypocrites. They are all ass-kissing suckups until they are in positions of power, and then they are paid tyrants for the people who gave them the money to get that power. If I wasn't so entertained, I'd throw up.
When I was in high school, I could not understand what was special about these people. I could not understand why they participated in the 'Student Government' elections because the 'Student Government' was a sham. They had no power. They would never 'represent' other students in issues involving the authority of the school administration. I considered them intellectually inferior because they never demonstrated any ability to think for themselves. They were all driven by conformity and obedience, and by craving attention. I never understood why the other students paid any attention to them. And nobody ever explained it to me. This is one of the things you have to grasp for yourself--from your own experience with it--not from what the other people tell you, because they don't understand it either. It took me many decades to understand the society I live in. Now that I understand it, I still find it disgusting. These are the dynamics that run our government, our courts, our military, all of our institutions. It's all a big fraud dressed up as something noble.
The people who should be running things are ignored, villified, marginalized, and excluded from any opportunity to get into positions of power. It is like the political equivalent of Gresham's Law in economics, which says Bad money drives out good money from circulation. The media does this. I kn ew back in high school that this one observation is what would destroy everything that was good about America, and it has. I see no redemption in the Republican convention, I see no redemption from anyone in politics. I only see people cheering for fools.
