'Conservative' Matt Walsh said — something wisely cautionary about elderly presidents

27 March 2021

I am repeatedly taken aback . . .

. . . that dementia-demonstrating Joe Biden is US president.

Having deliberately elevated quasi-brain-deadness to the presidency — says something revealing about the United States' non-democracy — the ill-will of its Elites — and the profound and easily manipulated ignorance of its Public.

Is anyone awake — anywhere?

Maybe.

Young "conservative" Matt Walsh said this — here extracted:

We're watching our president fall apart mentally and physically right in front of us. But that hasn't convinced many Americans that there's necessarily anything wrong with putting a very elderly person in the White House.

We, as a culture, are in denial about our own mortality and the inevitability of our own death.

This [visible decline] with Biden — the fact that we have a 78 year old President, perhaps ironically, is a symptom of that.

This is something that only a culture, in denial about death and mortality, could be stupid enough to put a 78 year old man in office.

We like to say things like, age is just a number — and I've heard that about Biden many times.

Our preferred story is one where age has no meaning. Our bodies and brains will never fail us. We will never die. And anyone, of any age, is capable of doing anything and holding any job. And to say otherwise, is to display bigotry and ageism and a severe lack of optimism on top of it.

"Stupid" is, indeed, the correct description . . .

. . . of our willingness to elevate (stumbling, bumbling, brain-vacant) Joe Biden to Commander-in-Chief. Yet, we did.

Admittedly, this elevation of a brain-dying puppet to head of state was on Plutocratic Establishment purpose. But even with that granted, Walsh's point is that the American public blithely let our enslaving Oligarchs get away with it.

The moral? — A arrogantly conceived, unendingly materialistic, always superficial and reality-avoiding culture . . .

. . . like ours — kills itself every day with one paraded stupidity after another.

At some point, one would think that Americans would begin to wake up. Simply, perhaps, out of boredom at seeing the same manipulations, interminably repeated.

The fact that we have not awakened (at all) says something broadly 'optimistic' about China's comparatively brighter future.

Intelligence, reality and considered wisdom all matter in society-building. Even when those traits come in packages that we do not like.

This, too, is a routinely trashed observation about Life's transient shortness. The US malaise is, fundamentally, a spiritual one.

Incipient death is supposed to be a reminder about priorities and sandless foundations. For us, on average, it is everything but. We eagerly direct bone-headed denial at every one of Time and Reality's waves.

This lack of acuity is not a formula for success, other than as squashed road kill.
