Who Is Disconnected from Reality? [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 19 November 2023 | John Semmens

Polls show that 75% of adults think the economy is in "fair" or "poor" shape, that 61% are living paycheck-to-paycheck, and that only 14% believe they are better off since Biden took office. President Biden thinks "these people are suffering a disconnect from reality. More people in the United States are in the workforce today than any time in American history. We now have the lowest rate of inflation of any advanced economy in the world. Meanwhile, median household wealth has grown by 37% in real terms since the depths of the pandemic."

CNN Senior Political Data Reporter Harry Enten said "I don't think there's this disconnect between Americans and what's actually going on. I think there might be a disconnect between what President Biden thinks is going on and what is actually going on. Inflation and population-adjusted disposable personal income has declined since the last year of the Trump Administration. Rents, interest rates, food and gasoline prices are all way up from where they were under Trump. The reason President Biden's messaging isn't working is because people are looking at what's in their own pockets. And they feel the economy isn't doing so swell."

Just say “No to the Covid/Flu Mandaters at all levels!:

Cutting through the Mist of the Managerial State!
JOHN CARTER NOVEMBER 18, 2023

Use disobedience to claw back whatever personal agency and responsibility, you can in your own life, train yourself not to take these people seriously, encourage others to do the same!

If enough people do this, eventually it will become so prohibitively expensive to manage the population that the strangling vines of this parasitic organism we call the managerial state can be hacked back to something manageable.

Biden surely either doesn’t know what he’s doing or just doesn’t care, but he is surely disconnected from reality, as well as are many in his administration. I think America has put up with his brand of stupidity just about long enough & something needs to be done about it NOW. I’m afraid to think about what might happen next if we let this go on. If he was just an employee for the USA, he could have been fired about 2nd or 3rd day on the job, which would have been proper.

Ground Control to Team Biden: “You are adrift in a distant galaxy. Sorry, you are too far gone to retrieve!”

That’s a good article. Sheds light on the reality of the Deep State.

The major problem is people with government power being corrupt, working for their own interests without fear that they will be fired, and thus being available to being bought by people with money.
