a Christmas like the others before.
The problem when doing one of these half-hearted Chy-na impersonations is that the ones you're oppressing
need to be generations of new and non-war-aware people who think real life is like YouTube and not like reality. (1)
Too many old ones never fell to the virus and they managed to tell the young 'uns that politicians will give you
half what you want, but take everything in the end. BoJo never counted on the immune-system fighting back as hard as it did.
The British public don't just believe in him anymore, they're bored with his rulings and it could well threaten his
Conservatory Party's future. Then it's not giggles and newspaper propaganda, it's a voter with a memory.
He was elected for his willingness to get Brexit done and the people who chose him knew they were getting
a clown. Now that clown is overstaying his welcome and not because of his behind-the-scenes-parties and
Police assistance, but due to his poor attempts to tell the UK public that the Mandela Flu is lethal.
But it's the same as the US, the old two-party situation. On one hand you have the Tories, a group that have
traditionally adhered to the old-boys network and frown at the working-classes. Then there is the Labour Party
who -as long as you have blue-hair and will constantly steer a conversation towards genitals (2), now are also a
laughing-stock and frown when the working-classes ask to be represented.
London Upper-Middle-Class and London Middle-Class... that's why the media Coof narrative is always about closing
theatres and restaurants. Do you think the working-class look on these as luxuries or things you go to weekly?(3)
(Stifling rant!)
1. Agreed. I would also include adherents to the "History of Now" at any age. If you have no idea of what has happened, it all seems new and scary.
2. Same here in the states. Way too much attention paid to that small but vocal crowd and negligence to everybody else who works for a living.
3. You bring up a great point. I can only speak for where I live in the States (rural area) but there are none of those items here. Sure, some small places to eat but there have been no-masks or any of that garbage for a year or more. When the threat is for closing down theaters in NYC or someplace, that is targeted at wealthy, urban dwellers. They also demonize the rubes in fly-over country as the cause of their missed shows and entertainment. Sure... if Joe the dairy farmer in nowhere Nebraska just got his 18th booster, then we could see musicals again on Broadway. Makes total sense.
