I Hate to Say “I Told You So”
…but in 2016, when was I still had the cash to leave the country?
And when I seriously considered it?
I heard NOTHING but
“calm down”
“stop borrowing trouble”
“don’t be hysterical and histrionic”
“It’s always something with you! If it’s not Donald Trump, it’s this f’n pandemic!”
“no, I am nOt lEaViNg tHe f’N cOuNtRy?)
Yeah.
I really genuinely do hate to say I told you so.
I hate to say it because it’s far too late for me, and for so many others.
I hate to say it because I have nowhere to go and no means to get there.
I am quite likely to be written off as an unacceptable expense and terminated due to nonproductivity.
No, I don’t work for the government. I’m not going to be “fired” as an employee.
He’s going to fire me as a citizen.
Musk’s Baby Nazis are currently capable of running a P&L on every single American. From birth. To right now.
He has access to every bit of our tax and social security contributions, our medicare and unemployment pay, our healthcare expenses. Everything. In fact, HAHAHAH Direct Filers, Elon Musk & Big Balls Are Are in Ur Bank Account. Probably.
Here’s some new trouble to borrow.
Don’t be surprised when the American dollar is “retired” & forcibly switched to KEKCoin (or whatever meme Musk decides to bring to life next, after DOGE).
Don’t be surprised when you receive an enormous bill from “the government,” demanding you “Pay them Back” for any unemployment, Medicaid, Medicare, WIC, etc. you’ve ever received. IN YOUR LIFETIME.
I take zero joy in this particular “I told you so.” "
Happy to join the ranks of the discounted, disregarded, and invalidated brilliant people—like Rachel Maddow and Seth Abramson—who laid everything out in such excruciating intricate detail.
And were rewarded for that warning/foresight/intellectual and emotional labor by being labeled “Crazy.”
Do not wail “Why????” again.
And the last word on the subject.
