there's laundry to do and a genocide to stop

Maybe a song title

A bit verbose, perhaps? Laundry Genocide?

It doesn’t say “from the left”. It says “from both parties”. Biden is the fascist from the other party.

Democrats are in no way, shape, or form part of “the left”.

At bare minimum someone on the left would be completely opposed to capitalism. They might be a mutualist, communalist, anarcho-syndicalist, anarcho-communist, etc.

Democrats are Neo-liberals and support the status quo. Maybe not outright fascists like the Republicans, but they have more in common with Republicans than they do with anyone on the left and when push comes to shove they’re not going to oppose fascism, they’re just going to go along with it. “Scratch a liberal, a fascist bleeds.”

Fascists from the left?

Wouldn't be the first time I've heard someone say "National SOCIALISM!" But I think this is more referring to the Kristen Sinemas and Robert Menendezes who spend more time finding ways to strangle Cuba to death and sell F-35s to Turkish dictators than to curb carbon emissions or mitigate the damage inflicted by COVID.

If you know of a better way to describe what kind of ideologue sips $1000 btl wine in a cave full of corporate arms dealers while negotiating the finer points of our next proxy war in Latin America, I'd love to hear it.

Adam Schiff vehemently opposes a permanent cease fire in Israel.

California also just passed a plan to involuntarily institutionalize it's homeless people.

That's just the news from today. There will be more hellscape tomorrow.

I gotta say I didn’t recognize it as a poem, but someone who needs to come back down to earth, and adjust their dosage

I hate shit like this. I honestly do.

Yeah my man, congratulations. Biden is better than Trump. Hear ye, hear ye, from the top of the terraces and down to your piss-infested alleys, you should know that today the Democratic party has found us someone you can vote for that is better than Trump. You're welcome, mortals. Now hurry down to the booths and do what we want you to do. No questions please, there is no time for your theatrics. Just know that he's better than the worst president you've ever had.

You know what, how about fuck you? How about we let the country burn? I mean, it'll burn for me anyway. Whether it's that alt-right fucko, or your shitty party's "moderate" alternative. But maybe with the other guy, it burns for you as well. Maybe when stocks go down because the orange clown shat out another retarded idea you'll remember that you offered moderation when people asked for a serious leftist choice. Maybe when the Supreme Court continues to remove rights from women, minorities and oppressed groups they'll get organized into a party that actually represents them and pushes for social change, instead of just being a shade less dark than their opposition. Maybe when the MAGA retards burn the fucking world down, some rich Democrat fuck's house just happens to get caught in the fire as well, and they can live to regret pulling the wrong strings for so many years. Because there's no fucking way the regular people get through any of this shit unscathed, might as well pull a few of the 'immortals' down with us and remind them that they too can bleed.

So fuck right off with your shitty choices. You made the retarded decision to have Hillary as the opposition to Trump, you saw how well that went for you. You made the same mistake now, offering people another impossible choice. For once in your fucking life, accept responsibility - the Democrats have chosen who should represent them, and they have chosen wrong. If they lose, that's not on the voters - that's on the people who made the choice.

the good Taliban powder

Afghan opium poppy cultivation plunges by 95 percent under Taliban: UN.
The restriction on poppy cultivation has decimated a key trade for hundreds of thousands of farmers and laborers.

Yes and no... mostly No. This train of thought depicts far more than symptoms of depression. Depression is a lot more than these kinds of thoughts.

What this train of thought is getting at is that we're acutely aware that the whole world is fucked up, but we also have to take care of our day-to-day lives. If anything, this train of thought speaks less to the symptoms of depression and more to the 1) powerlessness and 2) absurdity of modern living. We are powerless to stop global disasters, yet are more aware of them than ever before. And we are absurdly still tending to minutiae of life as if none of those things were happening, because that's how life works, and the more you think about it the more absurd it gets.

Sounds like an anxiety disorder to me. They need to adjust their dosage and learn how to focus more on their immediate life

Maybe implying that the CDC is compromised by outside interests?

I read that part as being a mashup of two disparate things similar to the rest of the piece. The CD seems to be announcing things more frequently, and there are places where the highways have no speed limits, both of which are more straws on the camel of anxiety.
