The pandemic
that is now weighing heavily on the world makes the undersigned think of
communism…is this worse than that period – if we die, it is, but otherwise, we
may take solace from the fact that this looks like a piece of cake, when compared
with that ultimate catastrophe – though many would disagree, since they entertain
‘socialist’ ideas, like the supporters of and silly old Bernie himself, who has
spent his holyday in Moscow, in the soviet union days no less, and seems to
have learned nothing from the experience, except to vote recently against
punitive measures against Putin, initiated after a lawyer died in a Russian jail,
just because he has sounded the alarm on corruption, which is the substance of
the present and the soviet regimes…
The Soviets
have killed more people than the loathsome Nazis and if we add the Chinese,
especially during their Mao days, even if they are not nice at all to dissidents,
whom they kidnap and send to prison in a flash, they take them from Hong Kong
as well, then the figures would pass anything this Covid 19 might do, although
it is early to say and it is clearly deadly for 2, maybe 3 percent of those who
catch it and much worse for the old age group and those who already have some
other, pre-existing condition that accelerate the advance of the virus…
Then there is
also the question of the extent of the calamity, given that this would pass in
a matter of months – some say in July or August…the cretin in the White House
has said the other day that he has asked his experts and that is what they answered…but
then this is a creature that has lost all credibility, given his pathological
lying and the fact that on this very catastrophic subject he had dismissed it,
called it a hoax created by the Democrats and that it will miraculously pass
and get to zero, only two weeks ago, maybe as recently as ten days before
belatedly coming to realize this is not just a ‘flu’
However,
august or sometime after that, the pandemonium is likely to last much less than
the more deadly communism, with its more than seventy years in the Soviet Union
– some would argue that they still have something very similar now, when the
Supreme Leader has been given another fourteen years to stay at the helm, more
that Ivan the Terrible, if I remember correctly – and around forty four here,
in our land, where we still pay the price and have some leaders that pay
tribute to that awful past, they have quite the same ideas and where they have
changed, they still respect the principle from Animal Farm – ‘all animals are
equal, but some animals are more equal than others’…this does not apply to the
impressive Klaus Johannis, an admirable, calm, restrained, serious figure for
me and to a lesser extent to the liberal party
Yes, the
PNL has many problems, though I am still loyal to them, I can see that there is
much to be changed there…nevertheless, the furious attacks from the spouse seem
more than over the top, exaggerated and they are simply wrong…these insults are
clearly less destined for the flawed liberals and more for the stupid, lazy,
ignominious, terrible, vicious, fucked up husband, who should leave, contract
the Corona virus and get lost in one way or another…
Yesterday I
was sent packing form one of the most idiotic movies imaginable, Murder
Mystery, with Adam Sandler – quite good in Uncut Gems, but silly as ever in the
Mystery – and some quite good artists – one of them, David Walliams was
glorious in Little Britain, one of the most hilarious series ever, but has
little to work with in such a stupid set up.
Given that
this is as brain damaging as a film can be, the insistence on seeing this could
only make me part and find something else to do…the effort I made to have on
the now seriously big screen at home – a Samsung with 189 cm diagonal is there –
features included on The New York Times’ Best 1,000 Movies Ever Made list has
not been paid with gratefulness, but on the contrary, with disdain…yes, I tend
to interrupt them and have them screened in two installments, but then the
likes of The High and the Mighty are two and a half hours
Besides,
most of the time, the spouse is actually watching the phone and yesterday
claimed these are stupid pictures I select…though even the most controversial
one could not conceivably be compared with Murder Mystery…
Which brings
about questions about goals, Meaning, Achievement…is this what I struggled for…well,
criticism that would be more than pertinent would emphasize that struggle means
some agitated, full years in communism, but more or less leisure for the past
maybe fifteen years or more, depending on how we take the efforts made for this
house, the one before in Rosenau and this continuous tension, the infamous cat
and mouse game with get out, this is the end, it cannot go on like this…with me
expected to just vacate the premises, probably continue to pay in whatever sums
are required and increase the down payments, perhaps exponentially…
There has
always been a continuous pressure on the subject of money…a few days ago, a
trip to the supermarket for the dog’s meat was in the cards and when I protested
that with that trip, other supplies would have to be bought – it is a crisis
and then this is not around the corner and the gas and the money spent for the
journey will be better used if spread over more than the food for the precious
pet…infinitely more valuable that the goddamn, idiotic me…
