The concept describing the dynamic between coercion and submission has been perfected by a forgettable cavalcade of mayors in West coast municipalities throughout the last two decades celebrating the grammatical blunders of Dan Quaile and George Bush Jr. in Theater district destinations in Manhattan. The mere mention of the term “Thespian” descriptor triggers the surreal and misplaced angst which is illuminated by the abstract arts culture adorning New York city loft walls with movements and mediums ranging from Photorealism to a play bill from a future Broadway production casting the reenactment of the Boston Party with a troupe of twice transitioned porcelain dolls acquired through raiding the ancient tombs of the Beirut suburbs.
While 2024 projects to touch the monumental with the forthcoming crucial election cycle dictating the fate of the near future, the year also marks a dubious landmark anniversary recognizing one of the most dubious and egregiously illogical and ideological disasters in the history of modern civic politics, making Three Mile Island seem like a pleasure craft oil spill in the cosmic context of historical syllogisms.
With anticipation looming among extremists, June will witness the fourth birthday of the disturbingly bizarre and savage CHAZ/CHOP zone, as the retired and maligned Seattle City Council parents of the toddler of a disaster becoming a preschooler will be revered in infamy for permitting a large and surprisingly homogeneous group to invade and capture 13 downtown city blocks resulting in multiple murders and rapes. The countercultural groups and supporters of civil disobedience and disregard for common sense ignored the hurricane of felonies and clear violation of basic rights, still today quantify the vile protests of devolution with the insufferably inaccurate phrase-“Summer of Love”. The live dystopian model of an urban war zone shocked and captivated a global following, as unfortunate residents trapped behind the temporary police barricades were prevented access to basic emergency services, while witnessing true anarchy on the scale of German city state leaders in the early 20th century releasing violent felons into the communities, and buildings and businesses burned much to the wry amusement of idealistic academics and sociologists existing under the influence of Marx.
Aside from the passive ruling under the influence or (PLI), which earns commendation instead of criminalization for a blatant apologist attitude towards prosecuting those who break the law, the Marxist ecosystem of Seattle’s leadership has been oscillating through the various compartments of Socialism for the last century at the expense of residents. While the WTO debacle of a riot-infused week was not the culmination of haphazard governing tendencies, surrendering a tract of city land to anarchists in forming the CHAZ/CHOP wayward experiment will forever define a municipality trapped between a crossroads of enablement and the oblivious to Constitutional freedoms. The comprehensive blunder by local elected officials inspired and incited politicians up and down the coast, to invoke a similar societal playbook facilitating chaos lining pockets through the misappropriation of funds. The billions of dollars of civic expenditures marks one of the biggest and interwoven scandals in history outside of the Daley royalty bilking generations of Chicagoans out of proportions of finances and paychecks through fabricated volatility and dysfunction. Financial considerations aside, the decay of public safety is a reality that a bureaucratic comptroller effectively justifying looting the public coffers cannot accurately assess.
With the ulterior motive to disarm citizens and ultimately inflict tyranny over constituents, the demonization of law-abiding gun owners and law enforcement in Seattle surrounding the convenient timing of a nation facing a “pandemic” and manufactured civil unrest resulted in a formidable “plug and play just add hot water” formula compatible with Democratically controlled cities and towns. As the mainstream anti-firearm and anti-police press and prevalent social networks assist with the process of indoctrination, the brazen distractions of crime, drugs, homelessness, and divisive topics all contribute to the general bombastic malaise to create an environment of a crises. With the average constituent oblivious to the extent and existence of the corruption, the only apparent recourse is to continue to vote activists into office, while urban causeways are warped into horrific catacombs that rival the dystopian dungeons of a Russian penal colony where human sacrifices are a participation trophy escape from perpetual suffering, as individuals forced to live and are not permitted the mercy of a quick death are animals in a cannibalistic food chain of torture that features gratuitous violations of the human condition. Not even identifying as an angelic figure under the pretenses of wokeness cannot protect one from the nightmares dreamt up by pathological sadists of the criminal underworld and the prison system, or for that matter those running liberal cities possessing a linear psychological profile to the diabolical characters.
Unfortunately, what happens in Seattle or the Bay Area does not stay contained within city limits as regionalism pervades and results in groupthink and cultural attrition. The Left coast is thus a template for the antithesis to nationalism and the time lapse to invading specific facets of traditional Red states is an unsavory consequence to the radicalized politicization of public procedure. While the warning to a large expanse of the nation of pending doom, gloom, and malevolence is not discounted entirely, the speed at which legislation moves rivals diving to safety from an oncoming glacier, as the legal system travels at a snail’s pace compared with technology, private industry and finance. However, the cretins who inhabit the dilapidated downtown causeways are not aware of socioeconomic nuances, as residents are their prey.
While social media has become the nanny for the younger generations, the middle-ages face the travesty that their grandkids will mock the ineptitude in allowing a societal failure similar to the snarky retort of great-grand parents in the post-WWII-era admonishing the television set and the American Dream society for taking on parenting duties. With the multiple influential mediums of the Information Age prevalent, at least the blame today is somewhat diluted in isolating the root cause of the world’s ills in righting the skewed trajectory of population demographics attempting to define themselves with zero assistance from at this point in time elected officials hailing from the West coast.
