(#5948) Stranger Things...

      I usually think of a subject before writing my daily blog but this morning I thought of this, upside down world. It is from the television series Stranger Things. Where there exists an alternate world that is teeming with a nightmarish surrealness. Much like our current political dilemma. In the trump world the bad guys are to be admired while the good guys are losers and foolish. How this was allowed to occur is something that has not been fully explained yet but in some amount of time the answers will come. In the meantime though the not upside down population of our nation is scrambling to figure a way out of this unnatural dreamscape!
     Sure, there are the extrajudicial ways that no human being in their right mind hasn't given pause to at least consider but that is extreme and not the way to end this bizarre moment in time. The most elegant way forward is to apply so much pressure that the trumps have no other alternative other than to acquiesce to the will of the people. The cruelty and brutishness this administration of trump is capable of is not strong enough to withstand a revolution of will against them. Because for all the bravado the trumps exhort they are not resilient to receiving equal force against them. We the people are. We have known hardship and survived whereas trumps only know the softness of privilege.
     How the upside down world was eliminated in the series was a group effort by those who were not going to lose reality. Same with we the people. We cannot allow the darkness of trump to blot out our sunshine with their dreary clouds of despair. What we have learned from trumps is that they are relentless in their daily attacks on our civility and perception. They do not care about facts and truths only their version of a twisted demented paradigm that is kin to the upside down world. In reality we could just shut our televisions off and take a break from it all but this is not that. We cannot turn the trumps off so we must live each day ready to withstand and overcome their endless soul sapping upside down world.
