I am angry, and I believe justifiably so; aren't you? If so, have you spoken out?

As I sit cooped up in a prison of the Democrats' making, my thoughts have inevitably turned inward. If there's one way to sum up my feelings of late, it's this: I'm angry. Are you angry? If so, are you doing anything about it?

The prevailing sentiment I've seen on the board and elsewhere is "why?" Mostly, "Why are the Democrats doing this? What could drive a human being to act so transparently of their own interest with selfish ulterior motives?" However, that question doesn't need to be asked. We know why the Democrats do it; they are an ancient remnant organization, a vestigial parasite party, a bottomless void that should not naturally continue to exist in a modern and civilized society. Yet they do persist, because their methods are not just, their protocols are not legal, and their scruples are nonexistent.

No, the question you should be asking yourself is "How can I do something about this?" There is, practically, zero to be gained from complaining passionately on internet forums and attempting to corral your lost-in-the-woods college-aged nieces and nephews, home from college, out of their liberal-sponsored brainwashing. The good news is, our society has protocols in place to enact positive change on not only your whole community, but the nation as a whole. It's easy, but it's somewhat obscure; it's not often covered exhaustively in public education, and that's not by accident, because it grants we the citizens great power.

Call your state senator. Relentlessly. Email them. Run for local office. Enact change at the local level. Run for office at the state level. Enact change at the state level. Make your opinions known where they matter - to your elected servents, not to the anonymous internet warriors. Be pervasive, and be persistent. Be known. Be heard. Take part in the grand American experiment called democracy, and take action to actually make a difference in society.

If you haven't taken these steps, as I have (at both the local level in my town board, in frequent communications with the mayor, and even at the Mississippi State Capitol in Jackson), then your voice falls on deaf ears here. It is either preaching to an eager but already-allied choir, or bouncing off liberal trolls who will never be convinced otherwise of their ways. The myth of the internet forum moderate waiting for a suggestive conversation to persuade them to your cause is an unambiguous myth, if that is the mythology you choose to subscribe to.

Get out and participate in America, or vow to give up your right to complain when all those Democrat policies you whinge and prattle on about actually come into reality. Or -- at the least -- when they do, don't do it here.

God Bless America, and God Bless Trump
