What we’re up against

Despite obvious contrast to sides, they’ve been equalized.
If that’s a show of good on both sides why do we learn of wrong and right?
Have religious and conscience guides?
From what we’ve learned there must be a scam.
How can evil and good work hand in hand?
If that is good on both sides, is God cheering on both sides too?
That means there is nothing and for no one to lose.
Tell that to George Floyd and the many more who no longer live.
Were their deaths justice?
Those who struggle financially versus the ones who soak in extreme luxury.
Not just from what’s earned fair and square.
But the exploitative, dastardly and shifty they do to get themselves there.
Trump summoned his private army and did nothing as the world witnessed their violence and destruction.
Yet Democrats, liberals and the left are the unpatriotic ones.
Officer Sicknick and others died.
Trump and Republicans are still profiting off the same lies.
No regard for Intelligence Agencies and National Security by Trump.
But it’s Hillary Clinton who ought to be locked up.
The plethora of lies, disrespect and deception don’t deter voters or disqualify him and other Republicans from running for public service positions.
The overreach by Republican Governors and lawmakers, now accepted and encouraged.
Doesn’t draw outrage.
Despite the good that President Biden does, his approval wanes.
Where is the compassion and empathy?
As Republicans bypass policies and enforce theology.
If God’s mercy is no different from ours then we’re on par with our maker.
All to a hollow command – Love Thy Neighbor.
If evil can be used to bring wins why is there any worry about sin?
If that’s the kind of logic to which we subscribe, then Divine is no different from mankind.
Is that why so many now act as judge, jury and God?
Lord over US?
And as we allow them to justify and legitimize every scheme.
We’re equalizing divine and devilish themes.
If those who do so much wrong are to Jesus’ mold, and all that is being done in his name is to his way and truth – At some point we’ve been fooled.
Somewhere there has been or is a sham.
Is that what was meant when Jesus said – I am?
Just saying Jesus’ name – Does that a Christian make?
Jesus didn’t only teach and preach.
And his words were in the context of truth and real.
He told stories and parables to make a point.
Not use lies, misinformation and conspiracies as a front.
He fed the masses with fish.
Based on what conservatives and right wing dish –
Does that make Jesus a bastard socialist?

On the left, when those who do or mean well fall short of expectations, they are rated down – in for cancelation.
Unfortunately, the left also harm and bring hurt.
But the right skillfully and willfully adopt what they criticize and then proceed to do worse.
When the left sees wrong, at times they try to implement to a different course.
But the right often chooses to their benefit, and regardless of the consequences, they charge on.
Now the foot-print of Republicans.
They cry for freedom, yet their leaders decline to protect voting Rights.
Suppression and marginalizing – taken to new heights.
Don’t censor their words, they’re champions to free speech.
Yet they ban books and limit what can be said where teachers teach.
They speak against crime but endorse violence and are now in line to “defund the FBI”.
They keep the courts busy as they attempt to rise above the law, stall, defy order and norms.
Their judges are not chosen to be fair but to be loyal to the one that positions them there.
Pastors and priests can preach based on biases.
Political leads can erase the choices people make.
Solidify their power believing that elections are for them to take.

America once spoke of equality.
Accessibility for all to live the American Dream.
What worked before hasn’t been as effective any more.
Yet they choose to hold on with iron fists.
Nostalgic.
The nostalgia they’re after is not of the America the forefathers started to build.
MAGA shifts to pre-1776.
Ironically, it’s the White man’s mingling that brought about the mixed-race.
Supremacy giveth, today supremacy desires to take away.
Accept and tolerate the token Black and POC who can do their bid.
Racists can also be opportunists.
Allowing for the denial that racism exists.
Pretending that equality is.

America has been living with that other big lie.
That there is equality of sides.
When it comes to access, Rights, freedom and accountability.
Matters of goodness and integrity.
Mal intent and hypocrisy.
Greed and cruelty.
In many American minds, there may be a blur.
But there is still clarity to some in US and the rest of the world.
Until that is clear, many Americans will continue to be ruled and decide by propaganda, disinformation, conspiracies and fear.
As right-wing definitions and manipulation of words go.
There is no distinction between terrorism and religion.
Patriotism and treason.
Supremacy and Christianity.
Theology and government policy.
And if as Trump says, there is goodness on both sides.
Why the need to demonize?
Somehow good can be found with Supremacists.
Yet they resist looking beyond the labels of liberals and socialists.
Though they choose to focus on right-wing good.
It doesn’t speak to the evil that lurks.
And on that scale, right-wing has it made.
President Biden was right to distinguish MAGA Republicans.
But if others continue voting along Party lines, they display what’s in their hearts and minds.
Similarities to MAGA will be an easy find.
A fundamental difference between conservatives and liberals, right and left, Republicans and Democrats – is that the former ones embrace “alternative facts”.
And there is no truth to that.
No the left doesn’t always square with truth.
But there is often a quest to include and to avoid being rude.
While the right knowingly and deliberately alter the truth.
To justify going against rules, exclude, and to be cruel.
Unfortunately the left does cause harm as they pull threads too thin.
Stupidly accepting and demanding for one.
Excluding and canceling on some.
But the right appear to gain when those who don’t think like them endure suffering and pain.
There has been a deficit of empathy.
Distancing from reality.
It used to be when truth revealed itself, it was heard and accepted.
Course corrected.
Met with courage and bravery.
Nowadays it’s hit with denial, projection, rejection and trickery.
When alternative facts are permitted to drive, truth is sent to the back seat.
With all that, it’s hard to compete.
When that’s what America is up against.
How can both sides be deemed the same?
