Online forums shake with schisms,
Yet cheap shots focus our prisms—
Exposing with divisive thunder,
How to bruise the greatest number.
Obscure bombardiers pontificate,
So fixated, they ruin debate;
Besieged, they dump their null default,
“Everyone stinks” is their gestalt.
Perhaps it’s misinformation,
Or drugs, boredom or vexation;
Of course this cheerless multitude
Is absolute: “we’re totally screwed.”
Their rote intellectual error
Distorts today’s reign of terror:
Incensed, they castigate each party—
As equal spewers of malarkey.
Thus Democrats deflect attacks,
Defamed, akin to right-wing hacks.
Say what? Who alone spurs vicious riots
Or spews venomous race bias?
No Dem explodes fair elections
Because voter predilections
Elect the opposing candidate—
And a Democrat’s job truncate.
None devastate with gross deceit,
Nor foment fury after defeat—
Defy certified local counts—
Or “child-eating” foes denounce.
Compare Democrats not to godheads,
But malicious Trumpist blockheads;
Elections bypass the eternals
When disdaining foul abnormals.
To batter Dems as hardly perfect
Insults much thoughtful intellect;
Our planet is an imperfect place,
A mirror to the human race.
Whiners blind to core distinctions
Provoke ominous extinctions;
Few options lift us to rejoice,
But fear what looms: the fascist choice.
A ‘plague on both houses’—still ends up a plague
Our planet is an imperfect place,/ A mirror to the human race.
