Pre VP Debate warm up. I was thinking that Trump resembles Anger
from Inside Out, and in the first movie, when Anger gets fed up, he goes rogue, steals mom’s credit card and buys a bus ticket to Minnesota (Make Riley Great Again). The only problem with going back, is that back
isn’t a place or time we can get to.
And then I thought about Kamala, and her refrain We’re not going back
but recognize she is talking about a different back, and the two sides don’t see back
the same way. But her refusal to go back is also not so great. The Democratic party is kind of like Sadness,
ready to flood us into liquidity such that no fires can start.
This metaphor isn’t great, I’ll admit, but it does bring up a notion about lesser of two evil’s approaches.
If we are only restricted to Trumps sparky forest fire, or Kamala’s rainy kumbaya that eventually leads to massive mud slides while Mickey prays for the wizard to stop to water-bearing brooms (sorry Ashville and Georgia), we could spend so much time trying to combat the other guys (you know, team evil
), that we’re not really spending any time doing something better.
Tribal allegiance, nor simple bipartisan get-along-ism isn’t going to change the fact that we need much more innovative approaches to changing our global ways. We’re not even being honest about the impacts we’re inducing.
Dang, I was hoping this was heading somewhere inspirational. Come on Joy
pull a rabbit outta that hat, and make Pizza Delicious again.
