NewAgers Used To Ask "What Are You Afraid Of?" (Nobody Asks That Any More)

 

 Though the Washington Post discovered guns are not the leading cause of death for American children (as TMR has told you a million times), we do exist in a world of killers. Annnd, if you don't know how the world "works" after learning Saudi Arabia chopped-up a journalist, Zionists are (plausibly) carrying out a genocide on the Palestinians, the United States talked Ukraine into a suicidal war with Russia, and (instead of being on the side of good) funds it all on a credit card in the American people's name - as almost everyone else is, literally, standing around and doing nothing - if all of that does not ring a bell. then, you're just too naïve for words.

And that's why I don't post that often. I mean, what's the point? This is the long-promised NewAge. I think the current state of things would teach anyone that the written word isn't worth very much anymore. The Macho Response? Come on. Lately, the closest thing society's had to a "Woodward and Bernstein moment" was when the Wall Street Journal's John Carreyrou busted Elizabeth Holmes over Theranos, and whoopie! for that. 

 But, seriously, how she's unacceptable, as this ethical environment sours, has become a mystery.

Hobbes said life used to be “nasty, brutish, and short,” but, thanks to Science, we Americans have stretched the run-time out considerably. We're now told the Top of the Heap is a life like Truman Capote's with his Swans. But very few would really want to trade places with them. Babe Paley was supposedly their best, and she was not only being cheated on, as she was also carrying on a messy affair that had her bleeding all over another woman's bed. But then it was publicized. AND all of that came after she was already missing all of her front teeth. Again: whoopie! 

   

We've been over this: Hillary Clinton slammed Tucker Carlson as "a useful idiot" ahead of his Putin interview. But, after RussiaGate, are we supposed to believe anything Hillary Clinton, or anyone like her, says? Does anyone think we forgot she's untrustworthy? Has the world already forgotten? 

The NewAge is a fucking mess.
