/
I woke up at one A.M. and checked the election results.
/
Then I couldn't sleep.
/
I was thinking about my great-great-grandfather.
/
He fought in the Civil War
/
The first one - for the Confederacy.
/
And when my father talked about him, he always referred to him in the same way - 
/
As a SUCKER.
/
Him and all the other white subsistence farmers in the part of eastern Mississippi where the soil was no good. SUCKERS.
/
They found bigotry and superiority so compelling that they would act against their own economic interest - even LAY DOWN THEIR LIVES -
/
To protect the monstrously ill-gotten fortunes of a small white Southern elite.
/
We live - now - in an oligarchy
/
And the oligarchs got the president they wanted.
/
And some of their voters - the poor, the weak, the pregnant - will find themselves laying down their lives to protect the fortunes of the oligarchs.
/
Am I a sucker?
I vote for candidates beholden to the oligarchs who value precedence and decorum.
/
So probably.
/
At three I fell back asleep and dreamt of the last piece of chicken in the world.
/
Everyone fighting over it
/
Tearing off the last pieces of flesh as they get smaller and smaller
/
Gnawing on the cartilage
/
Until nothing was left by the bones.</a></label><br><a href="https://cdn.masto.host/socelnet/media_attachments/files/113/462/612/923/604/440/original/d5ba3e2716da6aed.png" rel="external">https://cdn.masto.host/socelnet/media_attachments/files/113/462/612/923/604/440/original/d5ba3e2716da6aed.png</a></li></ol></footer></blockquote>
