If i wrote a novel where the us nosedived into fascism as the president of the united states was in cahoots with a megalomaniac tech ‘entrepreneur’ who openly sympathized with nazis and bought one of the biggest social platforms which was previously known for its progressive user base only to completely run it into the ground, in which that same united states president openly threatened the invasion of neighboring allied counties for fuck knows what reason, renamed the Gulf of Mexico to the gulf of america, posted an AI generated picture of himself as the pope, and built the golden calf from the biblical story where God said ‘guys don’t build a golden calf’, all while actively supporting a genocide in the holy land, I would be blacklisted from every major publishing house bc of how juvenile, far-fetched, corny, amateurish, silly, lacking depth, and on the nose the story would be. Like 1 star on goodreads this is what you get when you let a 13 year old write dystopian literature after only exposing him to twilight and hasan piker. Just real cartoonishly evil rubbing hands together and twisting ur mustache type shit. The man could shoot a toddler in broad daylight with ‘antichrist’ tattooed on his forehead atp and his band of trad larping goons would post an official statement which consisted of a blank page aside from ‘whoopsie x3’ from the notes app and a ukulele cover of the star spangled banner and it wouldn’t change a thing.
I feel like at some point I woke up in the most awkward and pathetic attempt at satire?? But here we are ig and ive been living in a sort of short-circuited dissociative haze just bc my brain cannot comprehend that the stupidity im seeing is not a garbage y/a ripoff of 1984, but the news. Every time i think ‘okay it cant possibly get any stupider than this’ it does. At this point trump could pass a law that would make 9/11 happen twice a month and id be like oh um okay i guess? Ive way passed the point of anger or disappointment or whatever other emotion im just in total absent confusion 24/7. Like how?? Why?? What ??? Is anyone else seeing this?? Am i hallucinating?? Is this real life?? Is this just fantasy?? Caught in a landslide?? No escape from reality??
