A COOL CHANGE

2 WOKE 2 F.

If you're like me, your guilty pleasure is Hee-Haw. I have others, of course, but Hee-Haw is both the guiltiest and most pleasurable of them all.

For a verified radical, soon-to-be street ready (once we have a vaccine), dyed-in-the-wool anti-racist, anti-fascist, anti-colonial anarcho-abolitionist activist and hermit, you might think being a fan of the corniest hillbilly TV romp ever to lull the sheeple of America back into their capitalist slumber might be sort of, umm, PROBLEMATIC. Well, thanks to the lockdown, it hasn't.

OMG, it's a disgrace what 45 has caused by being President during a time when, more than ever, it, umm, KIND OF matters who the president is. Not that there's ever a good time for an certified orangutan to be President, of course, but 2020 is a particularly bad year an orangutan President. Actually, it would be an upgrade.

The good thing about this era, is that when faced with the worst leadership in the highest position in the federal government, so many governors and mayors have stepped up to pick up the slack. Dealing with an ongoing global pandemic is serious, and we can only be thankful that these quick-thinking women and men in local and state government knew it was up to them to seize unprecedented power to battle the unprecedented virus, and to keep that power for an unprecedented amount to time. All these unprecedented events might have been a little easier or wouldn't have come up with we weren't saddled with an UN-PRESIDENT!

If 45 had his way, we'd all be shopping maskless, sitting side-by-side at concerts, movies and shows, dining in busy restaurants and, ugh, GOING TO WORK. His big smart idea to march millions of kids, teachers and teaching assistants, administrators, custodians (and more) straight back to school as if nothing happened where they would be all-but-certain to contract the deadly virus, setting off a series of spikes, then an unprecedented wave of cases that would have us back on the waiting lines for PPE, ventilators, hospital beds etc., none of which did he lift a finger to help locate, let alone provide, to Americans, instead opting to send shiploads of medical supplies to China (and most likely Russia) while sick patients lost critical hours, days and weeks, oftentimes getting well before help even came.

Needless to say, our state and local officials know better and they are following the science, keeping us safe, and TAKING THEIR TIME. Someone tell 45 you can't use nuclear bombs to kill a virus. It's, umm, a little more complicated than that, uh-kay? Go watch your gorilla programs, we'll letcha know when Joe and Kammie are ready to move in!!!!!!!!
