Planetary Duality
The Despots are simple to understand—all of their energies are focused on the advancement of their own power. While the Despots are simple to understand, Adherents are simply…simple. In contemporary society they are sometimes referred to as “useful idiots.” They are the Despot enablers. The more Adherents the Despot can collect, the greater their perceived power.
The relational process is simple also. The Despots simply find something the Adherents want to ensure their loyalty. Adherents may be offered anything from 40 virgins to free healthcare—oftentimes anything to assure their loyalty and devotion. Sometimes, their admiration for the Despot is simply enough to assure their loyalty—a characteristic not unlike the dog who continues to lick the hand of its abusive master. In reality, the price the Adherent pays for worshiping the Despot is a life of miserable servitude bereft of the phantasmal blessing--and quite possibly eternal damnation.
Oh, there is a third group—but its numbers are too insignificant to mention it.

Get Ready for the Ride
Slarti’s political prediction.
Obama has blown it. He and the leftists in the house and senate have completely frightened the American people—and rightly so. Completely ignoring the plight of the country—in both economic (double dipping recession, unemployment, etc.) and security terms (Fort Hood and Christmas terrorist attacks) they invested most of their political capital in two initiatives Americans really don’t care about. Cap and Trade (the global warming myth) and socialized medicine (the free healthcare myth). Americans by nature are rather dumb animals, but after time should be able to understand that their inability to find a job to pay their sky-rocketing power bill isn’t going to get them squat, unless they can spend multiple nights free of charge in a government subsidized hospital room.
So the true divide will begin. The ever shrinking rich will insulate themselves from the cold by fiddling next to the Roman flames, and the reaction of the middle class will be to lash out against the far swinging pendulum that is slowly reducing them to poverty. By mid-term, we will see Republicans gain ground because the majority of middle-Americans may probably understand that the Democrat party consists of two types: The certifiably and usefully moronic, and the hopelessly corrupt and helplessly addicted power hungry.
They will vote Republican.
But it will be too late. Unfortunately for them, the alternative is no better. They will discover that this party also consists of basically two types: The certifiably and usefully moronic, and the hopelessly weak and helplessly addicted power hungry.
The short term will yield some results. Buoyed by their seeming “return” or “victory” the Republicans will strut about like John Wayne in “Rio Bravo.” They will “whip” this young Presidente into shape, and tell ‘em how things are run in THIS country. And…in the short term, small wrongs may be righted and some necessary course corrections made. Meanwhile, their efforts will assist the the young President in appearing more “moderated” to the “undecided independents” (America’s most ignorant and under-educated class) and more persecuted and oppressed to his leftist, usefully idiotic ideological base.
By this time the nation will be in shambles. Foreign policy? We won't have one--we'll make it up with each new terror attack we suffer. Domestic policy? Milk the cow till it dies--keep the milk for those who can afford it, and dole out only what is necessary to the endless food lines.
The Republicans fail to chart the course correctly because they don’t know the way. Focusing on the unpopular healthcare bill they will hit with so many amended revisions and changes it will have created an economic and political quagmire that the nation will never recover from. The Republicans will pay the price again—being weak for over half a century, true conservatives will abandon hope and resign themselves to the fact they have no party, no representation and therefore no voice.
The Party’s conservative base, the only thing left propping it will crumble as they abandon it in droves, leaving the power to the only party who has always had its blind and cohesive support—the Democrats. All will become constituents to the Democrat Party. The rich and poor will be hopelessly dependent upon the one party who has ultimate control over them. There will be a final merging of corporation and state through the corporate welfare system, and a final merging of individual and state through the social welfare system. The Senate and House will declare themselves as the National Socialist Worker’s Party, bu it will ultimately be disbanded as the Emperor declares himself supreme commander-god.
We are witnessing the approach of the next Dark Age. The first one lasted almost a 1000 years—who knows how long this one will.
