America Protesting What?

AMERICA IS A NATION IN REVOLT, the only problem being that it isn't sure exactly what it should revolt against. It seems to be trying to revolt against authority, against something it vaguely tries to define as "the establishment", which, I assure you, nobody in America has even the slightest idea what it is. In a country where Donald Trump is seen as "anti-establishment", there is certainly no coherent definition of exactly what or who constitutes the establishment. It could easily be argued that Donald J. trump is the very epitome, the very essence of the establishment; rich guy from New York, always giving orders, who hangs out with all kinds of celebrities, and wealthy powerful people. But Trump has changed political parties and opinions as often as most people change underwear, so the republicans consider him an outsider, and their own elected political leaders they consider part of the establishment, which explains why Trump so easily beat ostensibly strong candidates like Scott Walker, Marco, Rubio, and Jeb Bush. The academic community and science in general are taking a hit in popularity, as conservatives attack both as authoritarian institutions which must be brought under control. Conservatives seem to be throwing out all science, no matter how solid the science, things like climate change and evolution. Experts and the very idea or experts in general is coming under attack, as alleged experts in fields such as environmental science are condemned as frauds when they make scientific announcements which are contrary to traditional, conservative values. If climate change is real is means that the liberals were right all along, and that we must make many fundamental changes to the way we live, which amounts to liberal social and economic policies, which must be avoided at all costs, because it all conflicts with my long held deeply conservative point of view, which I must defend at all costs, and must therefore call climate change scientists "idiots" rather than experts. It all makes perfect sense. if you want to find the real establishment, the true center of power in america, follow the money, as they say. It leads through corporate board rooms. The Bernie sanders revolt was, and we hope, still is the one true revolutionary movement in America, revolting against the true enemy; concentrated wealth and power. With Trump, the conservatives are not trying to protest or revolt. In truth, they are trying to turn back the clock several decades.....THANKS FOR SUPPORTING FREE EXPRESSION!
