Poor men south of Richmond need to reacquaint themselves with their anger

Oliver Anthony’s instant country hit, ‘Rich Men North of Richmond’, is a wrenching cry of despair, articulating the suffocating emotions that tens of millions in this country wake up to every single day. The sense that there is no hope for a better future, that we’re condemning our own children to a hamster wheel that spins a little faster each day, and that pays out a little less each day. This is debilitating despair, the kind that sends young men and women to the bottle or the needle or the gun. We know something is wrong, we know it is man-made, but most everyone cannot pin the blame on a single cause. This is the most maddening aspect of the despair that millions feel: the certainty that the cause of our despair is not an act of God, combined with the total inability to see the enemy. Everything appears to be getting worse. There is a socio-economic implosion occurring in slow motion, and almost no one appears to be doing anything about it. Both the Left and the Right are engaged in a cultural battle that appears increasingly ridiculous, as the base of both parties sinks further into a spiritual tar pit.

It’s important to express despair, to vent feelings of sadness and hopelessness. But it’s more important to let those feelings pass and evolve into purpose-fueled anger.

Anger gets a bad rap. We’re told from birth to not get angry, as if we have a choice. We’re made to feel ashamed of our anger, usually by people enfeebled by despair. But anger is powerful. It gives us energy and drive, it centers our attention. It cleanses every other emotion from our mind. Anger gives us the energy to stand up for ourselves, to make our own decisions.

The book, Ender’s Shadow, expounds on the difference between cold anger and hot anger. I think it’s one of the most insightful things I’ve ever read.

People in the possession of ‘cold’ anger solve problems and move with purpose. People overcome with despair shrink from the world.

Despair robs us of energy and agency. Anger restores it. When the poor men south of Richmond rediscover their anger, maybe they will save the lives of the tens of millions just like Anthony.

More on Maui police chief John Pelletier

Why was he in the FBI academy?

 

Maui police chief John Pelletier was also the incident commander at the Vegas massacre

As much as I hate to say it, there is a much larger game afoot here. There is something very wrong with the manner in which mass casualty events unfold in the West. Is he an actor? An intelligence asset? Why are so many of these events tied together through these people?

British citizens are removing “ultra low emission zone” cameras

ULEZ (ultra low emission zone) cameras are being installed around London. Once installed, they detect whether a car driving past is electric or not. If not, the driver receives a massive fine. This is insane Net Zero baloney, and the Brits have had it, so they remove them at night and trash them.

To Build Back Better, it must first be burned down

 

It seems that the death toll from the Lahaina fire is being intentionally minimized. We’re being told that 80 have died, but over 1500 are unaccounted for. If they aren’t found within a few days, that toll will soar to over 1,000 dead, making it one of the most unimaginable disasters in our nation’s history. Amateur media from first responders, as well as those familiar with Lahaina paint a much different picture than what we’re being force fed. The fire is not the result of “climate change”, but rather arson. Reports now are that Maui has run out of body bags, and that the government of Hawaii has taken total control of the importing of aid, restricting aid to those still trapped. Locals report that the extensive siren system in place on the island failed to alert the residents of the incoming fire, and that roads were even blocked as residents attempted to flee. I hear whisperings that the land of Lahaina is highly coveted by the upper class, but that the multi-generations natives have refused to sell. I see reports that Maui was designated to become a groundbreaking “smart city”, complete with net zero energy and all other WEF trimmings. Lahaina has been razed, FEMA will deem it uninhabitable, and surviving residents will be disenfranchised. Blackrock and Vanguard will fund the rebuilding, and we know what it will look like. A similar tactic is currently underway in Ukraine. Watch for reports of hundreds of millions in “donations” and “aid” from corporate behemoths, along with chatterings of how great the 15-minute city will be for the remaining residents of Maui. Watch over the next weeks an influx of influencers and phony baloney “humanitarians” getting their photo op of good deeds. Oprah is already out there fluffing pillows.
