Here on Daily Kos, this is a diary that probably won’t have an awful lot of controversy. But I’m going to be honest with you, I am angry. I am beside myself with anger over these people who are protesting the stay-at-home orders and endangering all of us. I have tried for weeks now to relieve my anger and it’s not getting better, but as the protests grow my anger grows. And so I am selfishly going to write this diary so that I can express my anger.
People who protest stay-at-home orders and threaten our safety are not patriots. They are traitors. Whats more, the people who have stormed capitol buildings with weapons are terrorists. They are threatening physical harm on people if they do not do get what they want. Patriots don’t just walk around with flags or banners or red white and blue clothing, they get out there and make our country better. They sure as hell don’t threaten fellow citizens.
We all know the phrase “might makes right”. I learned it as a child, I’m guessing that everyone else did too. But that wasn’t a compliment, it wasn’t a good thing. When we say that the winners get to write the history books, no one should be stepping back and saying “hell yeah” enthusiastically like it’s a privilege. They are both simple facts of life, but they are unfortunate simple facts of life. Emotionally healthy people don’t look at the bully and think he’s got his act together because he’s the “winner”.
So yeah I’m angry. I’m pissed off. I’m angry that things in the world have taken a big turn for the worse at a time that we had an orange Nazi as our president. I don’t have an outlet in my normal life to express this, we all need to stay as positive as possible to help each other, but now maybe I’ll feel better for having written about it.
Don’t be a traitor, stay home and stay healthy!
