Really? This Is Where We Are Now?

OMG, IT’S MAGA ALL-DAY ALL-NIGHT. SO YA’LL ARE S.O.L!

Geezus Jim-miney Crickets, We’re F*cked. It’s over. The angry idiots won.

Are we here now? Really? Are we at the end of democracy? Rome is burning, and orange Nero is in charge, holding the gasoline and the matches.

Well, yes… We are here, in the sh*t. This is now, and this is “not fine.” Corruption and greed are destroying the American democracy. So what are we going to do about it?

Well, we can fight back. We can use legal means, the Constitution, and the fire in our belly. We have the right to protest. We have the right to free speech. We can disrupt the status quo just as much as the Far Right has. MAGA has weaponized the internet. It’s a volatile, ugly comment, troll machine. We the people who disagree with the cult of MAGA: The Left. The Progressives. The Independents. The RINOs. All the people who didn’t realize it would be this bad. We can fight back. We can fight dirty. We can take it back. We can make fun of it too… because who doesn’t need a good laugh right now.

So, what to do?

The Democrats still seem to believe in decorum, which, in our view, isn’t working. Tiny hand-held signs at the last address to Congress didn’t help. Rep. Al Green, his bad-ass cane, and those who refused to show up were the only people with chutzpah. Any angry Democrat standing up gets headlines, but it’s not enough. Democrats need to get as loud as MAGA has been lately.

Enough has been said about the lack of Democratic voices, so I’ll defer to the more competent people on this topic. But, citizens waiting for this chaos until 2028 will be too late. The Right isn’t going to stop. They are activated and will blitzkrieg their way to complete authoritarian dictatorship. There’s a semblance of guardrails, but those are failing daily.

All these attacks on our democracy are just fear-led tactics to cover up all the massive corruption, racism, and unhinged greed by this administration, which will get worse. Look what has happened in three months. Imagine a year from now. I firmly believe this country is done if nothing is done and apathy settles in. It might be too late, but there’s still a fighting chance.

A fighting chance… or should I say a fighting stance? I find myself at a point where I need to make a change. So, how can this little website make a difference?

Well… We could make some politicized artwork and get it printed on cool swag and clothing. Then, part of the proceeds could go to some organizations that really make a difference in this fight. That might be cool.

Let’s make some informative videos to explain the current political situation and how we got here. Make America Learn again!

Let’s make some dumb cartoons to make light of a serious situation. Sweet!

Let’s make some memes. #Totes!

Let’s link to some fantastic organizations that inspire people, learn about, and take action. YES!

Let’s make a site that makes fun of all the stupid sh*t going on right now.

Many won’t agree with this site, but people get together for a good laugh when things are (hopefully) clever and funny. I hope to be that with Wicked Left Hook.

So, enjoy, learn and fight back.
