Can’t Anybody Here Play This Game?

Posted on by charliej373
A shot during Stalin’s show trials

By Charlie Johnston

When doing serious political work I used to spend a lot of time in busy diners in various locales, pretending to read a newspaper while actually listening to the random conversations around me. It gave me a candid snapshot of what people were saying to each other when not concerned with what they thought they should say. It was enough of a boost that when my take was dramatically different from conventional wisdom or the polls, eventually much of the state press corps and political leaders would hedge their bets. I still do it, though not as much and I don’t trust it as much anymore. I thought we were going to get a red wave in 2022 – and my diner “focus groups” confirmed that conclusion. I could have just been dead wrong – or fraud might have again been so rampant that an honest read does not matter anymore. There have always been outliers, but since 2018 I have been seriously wrong more than the entire 45 years prior to that. On the one hand, that is to be expected as society becomes more and more volatile – and old norms agreed to by all are routinely trashed. But it shakes you when the tools you have always used effectively are suddenly unreliable.

I have added a tool. I now like to go to lefty havens such as Starbucks and other trendy coffee shops to listen to what lefties say candidly to each other. It is bracing. They rarely ever actually talk to each other about anything substantive. Rather, they engage in dual monologues, seeking to attain the most virtue signal points. They are self-congratulatory, convinced that anyone who does not share their beliefs is a pathetic rube who will be swept away by the arc of history or some such. They never seriously discuss ideas other than their own substantively convinced that their righteousness is obvious on its face – like the color of their eyes or hair. To call their grasp of facts tenuous would be a vast overstatement

Occasionally I had a candidate who got irritated with me because I did not push the party line hard enough. I adamantly maintained that all an enforced party line accomplishes is to create an artificial consensus that blinds you to real dissent and concerns. When it blows (as it always will in an artificially enforced environment) it will catch you off guard and maybe derail your campaign. The delusions of the left are about to blow. When they do, the wailing and gnashing of teeth will be a sight for the ages.

Looking at the multitude of absurd cases against Donald Trump, one has to wonder, is there no authority that can look at this and say, “Enough already”? And then sanction the bad faith actors who have done this? For all the caterwauling of the left about “Orange Man Bad” everyone sees that this is a deep perversion of the legal system to get a person the left hates. Shoot, a growing number of leftists are coming up for enough air to see what a hideous spectacle this is. Regard for our legal system is in tatters; respect for the judiciary is plummeting; leaders of banana republics across the globe are laughing at the cover this gives them to railroad opponents. So does no one or no entity have the stature and the will to put a stop to this freak show?

The whole documents case looks like a set-up from the get-go. The General Services Administration (GSA) informed Trump they had six pallets of documents that he had to take off their hands, shipping two to Mar-A-Lago and four to a West Palm Beach storage unit. The two sent to Mar-A-Lago held some of the documents Trump is charged with “illegally” holding. Say what?! Tell him he HAD to take these documents then charge him with having them?! That does not even include the evidence tampering the prosecution engaged in.

If we really have no entity that can stop an enraged mob from trying to string someone up just because they don’t like him, that is a deep deformity of our system. Even as the system has devolved into nothing but deep deformities this stands out. “Our Democracy” ™ has reached the Salem witch hunt stage. I doubt it will recover. And terrorists and tyrants and unaccountable bureaucrats held illimitable dominion over all.

***

Well, well, well…even the New York Times has now noticed that the Covid shots were not quite as “safe and effective” as they were advertised to be. I love the headline, which asks if anyone is listening to the evidence – without mentioning that for several years the NY Times urged banning or imprisonment for anyone who dared mention the same evidence. Meantime Chris Cuomo now says he regularly takes Ivermectin, after smearing all those who touted it as dangerous rubes for so many years. He notes that the “science” was wrong, but shows little evidence of having learned anything about critical thinking from his errors.

File this as further evidence that the modern media – and their looney left handlers – have no story to tell, only a narrative to push. Even when one of their narratives backfires disastrously (as many do) they learn nothing and know nothing. And this is supposed to be the “elite” class. What does it say about the health of a republic when the most willful, unreflective louts hold the highest ramparts? Terrorists and tyrants and unaccountable bureaucrats hold illimitable dominion over all.

Even the most starry-eyed pundits are finally figuring out that the only path to peace in the Russian-Ukraine war is through a negotiated settlement along the lines of the terms discussed in Turkey two years ago before the United States ordered Ukraine to shut negotiations down. All that has been accomplished by American intransigence is to get half a million Ukrainians killed on the way to a settlement that could have been had from the start. Several quick facts:

  • The Donbass and Crimea have historically been Russian territory Throughout the 90’s, public opinion surveys in these regions routinely reported about 70 percent wanting repatriation with Russia.
  • Ever since the color revolution pushed by Barack Obama to overthrow a Ukrainian government that had good relations with Russia, Ukrainian authorities have persecuted Russian minorities in these territories, even sending the neo-Nazi Azov Brigade to harass them.
  • Continually expanding NATO ever closer to Russia’s borders has been a provocation as offensive to Russia as putting nuclear missiles in Cuba was to the US. Russia was much more patient with our provocation than we were with theirs (and I think ours was the right response, though I am grateful for Russia’s long patience with ours).
  • Ukraine is and has been a command society ever since the color revolution Obama instigated. The difference between the tyranny in Russia and in Ukraine is a matter of calibration, not substance.
  • It was a fool’s game from the start to pretend that tiny Ukraine could decimate Russia. All such a contest could result in was a meat grinder – mainly for Ukraine. It was akin to convincing a middle school football team it could decimate the Super Bowl champions. Nice boasting point, but to actually promote such a game would be to send the kids into a meat grinder.

I have some friends who are Russian; I have more who are Ukrainian. Some of my Ukrainian friends got offended that I never bought into this particular narrative. I pray that they understand that the fellow who says, “Let’s you and him fight,” drawing you into mortal combat with an opponent more than five times your size is NOT your friend. I would not have been disturbed to have been wrong about this conflict, but I was not about to let triumphant jingoism blind me to sober analysis. May the negotiations begin forthwith, may the bloodshed stop, and may both historic Russia and historic Ukraine co-exist on more than a bumper sticker.

***

Gazing at the world and the pitiable state of American governance and diplomacy I am reminded of Casey Stengel’s plaintive lament about the 1962 NY Mets baseball team he managed: “Can’t anybody here play this game?”

  1. Such a mess. If I didn’t know that God has a Plan, it would be easy to sink into depression. His Plan as well as the core message promoted here, and lived in real time, really are A Sign of Hope.

  2. Another sign of hope was yesterday’s event. The evening procession in Fatima was a highlight when I was there 23 years ago. As I looked and listened to this recording, I could only yearn for an evening procession at Mt. Meeker, yet to come.

She said when they said the rosary before mass she just cried her eyes out the whole time! She was so touched!!! She’s an angel 👼 who suffers greatly with only 10% of her stomach left due to cancer.

  4. This is the title of an article from Salon, “How squirrels cope with stress: New study may offer climate lessons for humans”.

    I don’t necessarily recommend reading the article; it is Salon after all.

    1. I pray this day’s meditation in the Magnificat brings you solace and hope, Judy. On a long shot I searched and found it online via another resource.

      One in Christ

      God wills that we bear with one another in charity. Bear with one another charitably (Eph 4:2). He does not want us to be scandalized or irritated with the evil he permits. He does not want our zeal to be transformed into impatience or bitterness. And he does not want us to complain about others, coming to the point of being persuaded that the ideal is in us or at least that we love it while others do not. In short, he does not want us to pray the prayer of the Pharisee…. The art of God consists in drawing good from evil…. We should support one another. Indeed, we should do something more. As Saint Paul says, You should carry each other’s troubles (Gal 6:2), just as Our Lord carried the burdens of us all on his shoulders.

      Perfection, however, does not consist only of bearing with one another but also in returning good for evil. Before all else we must give good example which edifies and we must pray. When we are tempted to judge our neighbor severely, to be scandalized or irritated, we should pray and light will shine in us and in the soul for whom we are praying. We will draw the blessings of God upon him. Finally, we should place ourselves at the service of all with humility and discretion. Then, with the aid of prayer, the union of hearts as well as the desire of Our Lord will be realized: That they may be one as we are one (Jn 17:22). In the first centuries this union characterized the life of the Church in the world. An intimate union existed between the Hebrew convert, the Greek, and the Roman; between the ignorant and the wise; between the rich and the poor. All formed one single family, that of the sons of God, and earthly goods were held in common. The disciples of Christ were truly recognized by the sign that he himself had given them. The pagans were forced to exclaim: “Look how they love one another!”

      O Soul of the Mystical Body, who vivifies the humanity of Christ, the head, and every one of his members, reveal to us the profound life and unity of this Body that is glorious in heaven, suffers in purgatory, and struggles here below. Make us understand that even now we belong to the family of the saints and the family of God, and, despite the diversity of character, have us love one another as Christ loved us.

      Father Reginald Garrigou-Lagrange, o.p.

    1. There’s just a ton of things we can do nothing about… other than the very important work of interceding for God’s Will and for conversion as we also engage in the prayer of doing the little we actually can accomplish right before us. Soon, and it seems very soon, today’s bad actors in the world will also be contending with the events and circumstances which will comprise the heights of this Storm. Then, the garbage originating from those in the hierarchy will be extinguished as God’s Plan to make all things new will be the process which captures our attention and imagination, our ongoing prayers and our deeds. Such g.r.e.a.t. hope have we.

      1. A very shrewd comment, Beckita, encompassing something people often forget as they rue the depredations of the Storm. That is that the bad actors, themselves, will contend with the consequences of what they have wrought. It is already happening – and that is a big part of the growing chaos. The bad actors, thinking they were titans, see this is creating problems for them jeopardizing their rule. Right now they are scrambling frantically, trying to get a foothold to get their balance back – but it isn’t happening.

        That gets to the heart of a big part of what I have been saying: the dull-witted destroyers can bring about collapse for all of us. For them, like Wile E. Coyote, it is a shock that their idiotic plan would take everything down. For us, it is a cue. When their destruction metastasizes, they lose power and we begin the process of rebuilding. My plan is to be well on our way to rebuilding before their destruction is complete. But it always was going to be that the destructors would destroy themselves in the process of bringing us down. They are like dull-witted cretins eagerly drilling holes in the other end of the boat in order to drown us. We’re all going down, much to their surprise. But we have prepared with life rafts and jackets while they only have their drill, consigning themselves to the briny deep.

Praying and working – with all who are willing – to bring your plan to life: “When their destruction metastasizes, they lose power and we begin the process of rebuilding.

    I’ll say again! Ya can maintain situational awareness by scanning Headlines. Pretending that the USA/Western Civilization can muddle along for another 30 years is idiocy!

Charlie Johnston is a former newspaper editor, radio talk show host and political consultant. From Feb. 11, 2011 to Aug. 21, 2012, he walked 3,200 miles across the country, sleeping in the woods, meeting people and praying as he went. He writes on cultural, global and political issues from an orthodox Catholic perspective. He emphasizes that we find God most surely through the ordinary, doing the little things we should with faith and fidelity. His constant refrain is that, to live real joy, we must acknowledge God, take the next right step, and be a sign of hope to those around us. He lives in the Archdiocese of Denver in the United States.
