Soldier Of Fortune (Define "Fun")

 

 "30% of Americans Consult Astrology, Tarot Cards or Fortune Tellers" reports the Pew Research Center. 

    

 That's a lot, but "most say they engage in these practices for fun, rather than for insights or guidance on life decisions." Which makes me wish Pew had probed deeper, to maybe ask what's so "fun" about telling manipulative types the inner workings of your relationships and community? 

    

Or what's so "fun" about letting liars know you're gullible? 

    

 What's so "fun" about possibly helping "fortunetellers" update the information on you, kept on their own private online community bulletin boards, that they can consult to know specific things about someone, no matter which "fortuneteller" they consult in the area?

What's so "fun" about undermining science, while keeping profoundly unscientific (and sometimes destructive) practices alive?

And what's so "fun" about representing, and proving, how bad your education, and the system that produced it, is?

 

Mystic Mayhem™ Amid The Luminance Of Our Lunacy

 

If the Nazis returned, the only thing about a Whole Foods, that Adolf Hitler would object to, is it's staff diversity. 

Himmler would see all the yoga studios and feel totally validated, knowing any nation - attempting this much de-stressing - must be killing a lot of innocent people (and we are). 

Hess would be over the moon after hearing of RFK, Jr's appointments. 

Reinhard Heydrich would think, if President Trump shut out refugees but is making White South Africans an exception, that makes sense. 

Our fleet of B-2 bombers - and, especially, using them to hurt poor people - would leave Goering wondering where he and his crew went wrong. 

And Joseph Goebbels would find the American government's almost-complete control - over the world's public - most impressive. 

 

They'd all be able to see their influence on America, clearly, but America can't see anything. Not in our super-religious, militarized nation, that educates it's citizens so well a married man can think he's "Jesus" and yoga-promoter Jennifer Aniston is his "Queen," but nobody (beyond his wife who speaks, Oprah-like, of something "manifesting") can spot much is out of order, until he's ramming Aniston's gate with his car.

And it's not just us gone batty - or, rather, Blavatsky. In 2025, Helena could've been an editor for Britain's Daily Mail, approving headlines like this:

Diana Nostradamus who foresaw her death reads Royal charts and makes stunning predictions about a Meghan 'reality check', 'lost' Harry... and their marriage

This is "news," People. As we, currently, starve Palestinians to death, instead of out-right murdering them. The world's lost its stomach for it. The Nazis, too - from top to bottom - found their own actions distasteful, when finally directly confronted with them. That's never stopped anybody from anything, then until now. The Third Reich's ultimate legacy - obviously - is we just keep marching on.

 

Asking Crazy People To Fix Things (How's That Supposed To Work?)

Drifting from the fascism of the Democrat's NewAge spirituality, to the fascism within the Republican's Christian theocratic version SHOULD be a whiplash, but - instead - it's going as smooth as silk, due to electing a Trump administration full of former Democrats 

 Now we get Jesus AND "alternative" medicine! The Prosperity Gospel AND newscasters who talk to "psychics." It's the "best" of both insane worlds, for the worst of all possible outcomes 

 The US is still in decline
