Views on the Election....

I can sincerely say that I hate humanity.

America, in its stupidity, has chosen to ignore the warnings given for years. It has chosen to embrace Fascism in the form of the Christian Taliban.

Words fail me as to how we could allow these unworldly filthy beings (I refuse to call them “people”) to win. But this points to more signs that God doesn’t exist; or else “he” exists and allows good people to suffer whilst letting evil people win. Look no further than my life and how it turned out for good examples of this.

So enjoy your freedoms.... while they last. Come January 21, start saying goodbye to:

- Your rights as a woman; you got raped by one of the GOP Goon Squads? Too bad! Carry your baby to term, or else you’ll be sent to our camps.
- Your rights as an LGBTQ+ person. You get to go to the camps as well.
- Your rights as a Hispanic. You’ve forfeited your life, I’m afraid. Go to the camps and get either gassed or worked to death. You have no escape.
- Nonconformists? Go to the prison camps as well.
- Religion? You’d better be a Christian, or we’ll force you to become one.

Freedom for the GOP and their Talibans, oppression for actual Americans. You might as well take down the plaque on the Statue of Liberty. Those words no longer ring true.

But then that leaves resistance. We have two choices, those presented by Madiba*: Submit or fight. Many Americans will choose to submit, doubtless. As for me and several hundred thousand million others? I dunno about you, but the Antifascist Action is beginning to look good for me.... As I said back in 2018, the Antifascist Action is the only viable way to stop heartless beings like the GOP.

Many people will say, “Love it or leave it.” Fuck you. Don’t tell me to love a movement that has in its tenets the dehumanisation of the “other”. Leave it? Easier said than done, idiot! The 2 reasons why I haven’t left this country for greener pastures (both during the first Drumpf “presidency” and now the incoming 2nd term) is:

1. I wouldn’t get my SSI if I fled the country; and
2. (The most important) My grandmom is 90 years old, and my mom is 66. I would never dare leave them to fend for themselves, even if my mom turned into a Fascist Sympathiser (and voted this election for the Republican Scum).

So where does that leave me? Again the only options left are to either “if you can’t beat them, join them”, which I refuse to do; and the other is to resist the incoming government at all turns; that means, in my case, possibly joining at Pacifist protests.

The streets are the only way out.

Once again, this has proven that Money Speaks more than Human Reason and Love.

I hope you sleep well, America, because you’re about to enter a nightmare -- a nightmare that took the Germans several decades to wake up from, let alone the rest of Europe. Your constitution barely survived 4 years of the Orange Mussolini, wait till you get through the first year of the new term.... if you ever get there.

I hope we'll live to tell the tale.

With regret,


FRANCO FERRER-SAN MIGUEL
