Release date: October 2018
Synopsis
How did the US voluntarily arrive at the doorstep of its own demise? is homemade manmade Handmaid’s Tale, where falsehoods and transparently mean-spirited claptrap trump facts and common decency–subverting naïve yet positive innocence into a malignant supremacist and myopic nationalistic agenda that is now in aming the planet’s already rising temperature of self-harm? All this to cloak the true aspirations of the identi ed malevolent Oligarchs, who no longer lie quietly waiting.
The first book in this trilogy (Math v. Myth) exposed the blatant myths that now overshadow reality. The second book (Who is Jeb!!!) uncovered the horrible histories of the Bush dynasty–revealing how America, beginning with the JFK assassination, began its descent from being a force for good, to now having zero moral authority. Allies hold us in contempt; enemies nurture us.
We must understand the problem in order to visualize and actualize the solution. Since I fear the solution is unlikely to be enacted organically, we must prepare to seek a ballot-box-inspired intervention from a higher power–we must seek deliverance from our own collective folly, not from the heavens but from our own homegrown saviors, whom we created in the image of own inescapable delusions.
Excerpt from Chapter 4: Fake This + Fake That = Fake Americans
Fake Patriots Cannot Recognize Real News
Is it patriotic to read the above and believe it is real news, that CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, BBC, and NPR spell out fake news? Is it patriotic to believe in junk, to believe that Obama was born in Kenya? Is ignorance patriotic? Is it patriotic to attack the Fourth Estate, the FBI, the CIA? Is it patriotic to encourage the destruction of the integrity of the presidency, to overlook the use of the power of the White House to promote Trump’s business interests, to turn a blind eye while the White House intimidates political opponents?
Is it patriotic to sit idly by and watch the White House pardon people in order to undermine efforts to investigate crimes by the presidential team? For the President to pardon himself? Would a patriot applaud collusion, encourage the obstruction of justice, rejoice at the promotion of fear? Is it patriotic to absorb and believe the falsehoods about immigrants, give the thumbs up to the proliferation of pollution, police violence, gun violence; mock women’s rights, fuel the destruction of healthcare plans?
Is it patriotic to support policies that isolate America, make America a rogue nation; to succor and support Russian imperialism, and support policies that encourage countries across the world to look toward China for stable business relationships? Strategic alliances? Is it patriotic to abandon U.S. territories such as Puerto Rico in time of distress, to reportedly insult all African nations; insult all Muslim nations, insult Mexico, Haiti, Germany, France, and China—while fawning over Putin, over Netanyahu?
Insulting the world— is that good business? Does that push nations to choose Boeing over Airbus, or tourists to visit New York rather than Paris? Consumers across the world, if they despise America whilst receiving aid from China— will those consumers be looking at GM trucks or at Toyota trucks first? If China (also looking to restore aspects from its horrendous histories) helps a country with its infrastructure, rather than the assistance coming from ever-diminishing America, who will that country look to first for trade or side with at the UN during an international crisis, or share intelligence with?
This slippage has already begun; it began with Trump’s businesses— now busily removing the Trump name from public view, Trump’s brand-new golf courses in Scotland being shunned. Next, it will be America’s brand, its flag; its interests will all have to be hidden. Nobody wants to lend a hand to a bad person, a bad country, a rogue country that shows zero respect for the wishes or welfare of much of the rest of the world’s inhabitants.
Is that being a patriot, to support such obscenities, to make America a laughing stock, a country striving for zero integrity? Of course that is not what any patriot wants; only fake patriots would be so willing to destroy the foundations of their country.
It is the fake patriots who are the traitors; America would be far better off building a wall round those guys and pushing them off into the middle of the Pacific…These very same fake patriots, these real traitors—this segment is the easiest to manipulate. All one has to do is press the fear button—that, by definition protrudes from every conservative brain. Now that the geeks have the big data, their work can be used for good or bad—easy to unleash on a public with no built-in immunity. Easy to figure out how to virtually push that protrusion, cultivate that ignorance, incite that fear.
About the Author
Patrick Andendall has always had an interest in politics and, being multicultural, he views issues from a more international perspective. In 2004, five days before the election, he flew to Cleveland and pitched in to help with the political process. What he discovered was the dissolution of the American Dream, which he writes about in his book, Stupidparty.
Educated at English boarding schools from the age of seven, Andendall went on to graduate from Lancing College. He started by sometimes working three jobs at once, trainee Underwriter/claim broker at Lloyd’s of London, his own one man cleaning Company (cleaning the very offices of a Reinsurance Company he would transact business at) plus doing seasonal work on various farms.
Having made some windfall profits by borrowing money in order to be a “Stag” to take advantage of opportunities created by Margaret Thatcher’s denationalization policies of the mid 1980s, Andendall evolved into an entrepreneur with a core specialty in Reinsurance in London and New York where he looks for patterns in numbers. Self-employed in a field not normally conducive to self-employment, he is able remain in control, juggle different jobs, travel and pursue his various interests.
Ending up in New York via romance in the African bush, Andendall now lives on Long Island with his wife, two children, and two dogs.
