Rock artist Phil Collins put it succinctly in his major hit song ” I Don’t Care Anymore’:

Hey, I’ll do alright by myself
‘Cause I don’t

‘Cause I remember all the times I tried so hard
And you laughed in my face ’cause you held the cards
I don’t care anymore

And I really ain’t bothered what you think of me
‘Cause all I want of you is just to let me be
I don’t care anymore
Do you hear, I don’t care no more

I don’t care what you say
I never did believe you much anyway

I won’t be there no more
So get out of my way
Let me by
I got better things to do with my time
I don’t care anymore
Do you hear, I don’t care anymore
I don’t care no more
You listening? I don’t care no more
No more

What we have now in Amerika with a ‘K’ is the rule of fascism reminiscent of those glorious years of Mussolini and Hitler. As with those dictators our new Childish King and his ‘not so round table’ of sycophants is beyond belief! They don’t even have to scheme for the myriad of terrible decisions they make. From the tariffs, to nuking speedboats, to Venezuela (Childish King: It IS about the oil), tax cuts for the mega rich, Healthcare cuts that effect most of us, major cuts in our safety net… right on to good old Minneapolis with the 3 to 1 number of Icemen to local police that intimidate for no reason. And then they just plain ole KILL peaceful protestors in COLD BLOOD IN THE FREEZING COLD! Oh, and did I forget the main script here for what evil does for the Childish King and his super rich cohorts: Epstein Epstein Epstein!! They will make damn sure all those photos and videos and emails will be redacted enough to hide the truth!!

This writer’s concern now is the number of citizens, many in my own neighborhood, who still follow this malignant narcissist and his regime. I want to stop that person on the street or at a store and ask this: “You support what Trump’s ICE is doing to rid our nation of those damn illegals,. What if your son or daughter, grandson or granddaughter was the one being shot and killed by a masked ICE agent, just as the two peaceful protestors in Minneapolis?” A bland answer is what I would expect, and guess what? I don’t care anymore! In the 1920s and 30s when the Nazis began to rally support and finally won power, I bet there were many Germans who decided that this mindset was just terribly wrong. They had to turn away and avoid dealing, as much as possible, with zealous neighbors who followed those monsters, I would hope.
