Dispelling Darkness With People Power

PUTIN AND TRUMP meet face to face for the first time ever this Friday. Its long overdue. Why the delay? Maybe they're afraid of each other, or both just shy. They certainly should be afraid of each other; the rest of us are afraid of them both. Putin will feel small when shaking hands, Trump, doubtless, just dumb. Its probably too late to assemble a joint Russo-American hit squad, and get two birds with one taser and two pairs of handcuffs. Not to worry, a gang of fifty to a hundred million poor people, merely by existing, can and will accomplish the same thing. A few Russians visit this site. For that, gracias. We can organize and exert people power, online at first, then the real deal out in the world's streets. These two guys need to go, for the same reasons. Extreme narcissism, power hunger, tyranny, aggression, criminality. Isn't that enough? Two peas in a pod, Putin and Trump. If only one good Russian would spread the word to two good Russians, who would each do the same, and so on. Same in America. Same everywhere. Let's get the world's working poor people signed up online, and out into the streets, demanding equality and democracy, among other things. Sorta like Occupy Wall Street on steroids. Russian street protests, particularly in Red Square in the spring, are always sensational, far better, I am told, than those corny patriotic military power parades like they have every May Day. Americans, as we know, protest early and often, especially since the advent of Der Trumpster. Americans protest at the drop of a hat. There are hopeful signs elsewhere as well. France has avoided moving to the extreme right, preferring the safe center. In Britain, they are starting to awaken from their self inflicted right wing populist nightmare. Before you know it, Labor will be back in power in full cockney force. But Russia and the U.S. are currently strongholds of darkness, and must be cured by whatever means is necessary. That, dear reader, means protest and revolution. Like Marx said, we've only our chains to lose, and maybe a pair of very bad leaders.
