Yin and yang: In Ancient Chinese philosophy, yin and yang is a concept of dualism, describing how seemingly opposite or contrary forces may actually be complementary, interconnected, and interdependent in the natural world, and how they may give rise to each other as they interrelate to one another. Throughout the 60’s and ’70s during my “hippie” years of college my first’s such as marriage, family planning, discovering my talents, and expressing my creativity; the term Yin and yang were as fluid as might the rush of a riptide, drawing you into the ocean, yet scrambling to escape its grasp.
Dualism, a dandy idea, opposite or contrary forces interconnected so Star Trekk-ish, so Star Wars sounding. Then throw in the term natural world and its interrelationship as if good is to bad as right is to wrong, fact is to fiction. I am now living the Roaring 2020’s and an entire universe has erupted especially in this country upon which the PHILOSOPHY of opposites becoming reality is nothing but a horrifying/mystifying/insidious game of snake oil, to the EXTREME DEGREE, causing decay, destruction, doom and dehumanizing with all its toxic haze forcing anyone in its way to choke, smother leading to death.
The Republican Party believe January 6, was just a good ole’ boy party. The Republican Party believes COVID-19 is a hoax. The Republican Party believes there are Good Nazis. The Republican Party believes anyone of color should not have their votes count. The Republican Party believes the Earth’s environment is alive and well. The Republican Party believes no matter how large the ballots cast for a Democrat, those votes are useless and carry no weight. The Republican Party’s mantra is to gaslight history. The White Evangelical Christians believe as long as Jesus is a Republican any or all scruples which might provide food, housing, jobs, education, health care, equality for the Poor Elderly, Ill, Middle-Class Black/Brown/Asian/LGBTQ/Jew/Muslim are BAD/WRONG/and for God sakes SOCIALIST! One more day and all I hear is that Matt Gaetz and Marjory Taylor Greene get applause and financial support, while Mitt Romney and Liz Cheney get booed and almost fired. Rudy Giuliani is a good guy for undermining the security of this nation, Trump will be rewarded with his FB Page reopened. Now individual police officers should not be held accountable for murder, rather their departments need to be taken to court. Caitlyn Jenner a transgendered person, wants different acceptance for herself than those who are transgendered and athletes. The same INSURRECTIONISTS who either climbed the Capitol Walls or gave permission for the Trump Big Lie to thrive are now recounting votes in Arizona. For me, real life is not a Yin and yang there is truth and all else is lies. There is good and all else is not. There are facts and everything else is bull shit or pretend!
