"No." (The Enchanted World Chronicles, $2 Ho Edition.)

Brothers and sisters, please quiet down. Thank you.

We come here time after time and we talk about the same old same old.

Hey, quiet down.
- We talk about Jesus. - That's right.
Jesus said and Jesus wept.
Jesus heard and Jesus walked over.
I don't wanna talk about Jesus.
Cos as the big man teaches us, there's two sides to every story.
Not one but two. A story is not one-sided.
A story has duality. There's two sides to every story.
Which brings to mind the phrase "necessary evil".
I know many of you hear that phrase and say,
"That don't even make no sense to me.
"Can't be no such thing as necessary - how's evil necessary?
"That don't match. That's plaids and stripes, evil and necessary."
You see, because without bad, there is no good.
Without light, there is no dark, you need both these things.
You hear what I'm saying?
If every day is a sunny day, well, then, what's a sunny day?
Well, the bottom line, what I'm trying to tell you tonight,
is that evil...evil... is necessary.
Evil is necessary, thereby, if it's necessary, evil...
- Evil... -must be good.
Evil is good.
That's what I think. Evil must be good, must be good.
- Let me hear y'all say it... - Evil is good.

Evil is good. Take Brother Brown, one of our strongest deacons,
pillar of stability.
Brother Brown was on Bushwick Avenue last night with a two-dollar ho.
When you tell your wife, "I'm going to see Mama,"
then you go get you a two-dollar ho, that's evil.
But Brother Brown had a good time with that two-dollar ho.
You can push a two-dollar ho and she don't have no limits!
Evil and good walk hand in hand.
- Evil is as evil does. 

I know many of y'all may be saying, "How can he say ass is good?"
How y'all think y'all got here?
Ass is good! Evil's good and ass is good.
And if you get you a piece of evil ass...Woo!

So, Trump couldn't get the money to pay his bond.

Oh well, no sympathy, fuck him.

But here, Mark Levin is expecting some right-wing Billionaire to pony up the money because something something Gazpacho.

I've got some news for ya, Mark.

Those guys know Trump don't pay back loans.

Them Billionaires, they can always get them another Republican, and not get stiffed.

Also isn't Trump supposed to be not just a billionaire, but like the most famous and richest man alive or some shit??

No? Is that what you're saying here, Mark??

Donald Trump is just the $2 Ho of this particular moment.

And it's not their fault that you're in love with him.

And the Republican voter base will follow along, after all, what are they gonna do? Vote Democratic??

I suspect any of these fucking people that were ever going to do that have already switched sides, and I say that as a former Republican myself.

Look, all these bloodbaths and civil wars and this, that and the other damn thing that Trump is threatening?? (And apparently, whether he wins or loses, he wants that anyway?)

They're going to cost rich people money, far more money than is offset by any potential Republican tax cuts.

And Trump doesn't want to share any of the power, or the status or any of that stuff either. He wants everything for himself and he's not even being the least bit subtle about that very point. 

So, why would anybody help him?? I'll wait.

In fact, the funny part is, all those rich fucks have to do is "Let Trump be Trump" and watch him self-destruct.

Isn't that what you've wanted all along, for all those people to "Let Trump be Trump" or some shit??

So now that Trump is hell-bent on blabbing himself into insolvency talking about E. Jean Carroll, losing an election and then starting a civil war that he'll lose...you fuckers want other people to ride to the rescue??

No.

Not just "No." Hell No.

Why should we?? What's in it for us?

It's not like you far-right idiots would even appreciate it anyway, like shitty college frat bros, you expect somebody to bail your ass out, more to the point, to do so at no benefit to themselves.

Well what if people just say "No?"

After all, what the fuck do we get out of it, except shit on some more?? I'd have to assume that applies to rich assholes as much as any of the rest of us.

You don't have the Authority, or maybe people are just tired of your shit.

And it seems like whole countries, and whole generations of people, are pretty much done.

You can call that "Devil Worship" and play the "God" card like some petty ass Pentecostal church manipulator all you want.

This is America, and nobody outside of your piss-ant little cult has to care.

This isn't just Trump, trust me. I used to be a Republican and a certain segment of these fucking people have always been like this.

And over 20 years ago, they started chasing the rest of us out.

They had some shitty enablers then, too.

Now, evidently, being that isn't enough.

And after they've rubbed their dicks all over Christianity and conservatism and made that shit all nasty, now they're butt-hurt that nobody else wants any of that stuff?? Really??

Republicans demand others save them from their fuckups, and then they keep trying to act all righteous while they fuck up some more and then shoot their mouths off about how bad everybody else is.

Fuck these motherfuckers, and fuck their fucking bullshit.

I'm tired of this shit, and I'm not the only one. Fuck you.

We have to start telling these people "No." 

And sooner or later, we're going to have to back that "No" up with force. It's always that way with these political-religious obsessives.

Otherwise, where does it stop??

(It doesn't.)

And yeah, they'll still be obsessing about it and scheming to get their revenge or whatever in 20 or 50 or 100 years, so what??

Shit, I know my ex-wife is still mad that I left, 23 years ago.

So??

We don't have to give them the power to act out on their shit.

Let them try and start their civil war. They'll lose.

Reagan Wept.

We don't have to put up with right-wing bullshit.

So don't.

America is about Citizenship, you want a better country, you have to be a better Citizen.

Republicans don't want that; In their hubris, they want to be gods and have everybody else be their slaves. And they'll hop into bed with Putin-Communism and Radical Islam to get that, if they have to.

And then they'll blithely contemplate and then commit unspeakable evils just to get money.

Think about that shit for a second. 

Just because they've ginned up a whole Enchanted World of conspiracy theories and magic to justify that crap doesn't actually make it anything other than what it is.

No.

Don't Vote Republican.

Слава Україна!

When men stop believing in God, it isn't that they then believe in nothing: they believe in everything. ~Umberto Eco

And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.

And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.

And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.

And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.

And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. ~Revelation 6:1-8
