    “We want a whole race perpetually in pursuit of the rainbow’s end, never honest, nor kind, nor happy now, but always using as mere fuel wherewith to heap the alter of the future every real gift which is offered them in the Present.”

    • Screwtape, “The Screwtape Letters”, C.S. Lewis

    Screwtape (and fucking Putin and Elon) want to remind us all to talk over and past each-other, and really focus on what divides us, this Thanksgiving.

    They hope we all do our best to ensure that each of our normal safety nets are as alienated as possible, in preparation for whatever bullshit they want to push on us next.

    Let’s all remember that our individual differences in opinion on how to solve their oppressive regimes are the best way to keep us from seeing that we’re in a class war, not a political one.

    Edit: And Screwtape sure as shit needs us not on speaking terms with the blue collar workforce who make up at least half of the union we will need to form, before this is all over.
