Suburban white voters once again powered a GQP victory seduced by the sweet Siren song of racist dog whistling. Maybe we really should just divide ourselves into red and blue countries and dissolve the United States.

A LOT happened! We mixed “The Magic Flute” and the Cambodian epic poem “Reamkar,” went on a long bicycle trip through OLD Cambodia, Halloween, and Dias de los Muertos and everything!

Anyone who supports either the Big Lie or the 6 January Insurrection false flag theory are clearly anti-democratic. It is clear that the goal is to create this single-party pseudo-democratic minority-rule autocracy that will quickly and efficiently transfer the nation’s wealth to the one percent, all them to intimidate all rivals, and duke it out with China as they divvy up the remainder of the world’s natural resources.

United we stand; divided we fall, so why is the GQP deliberately dividing us with its divisive politics? They want us to fall. How do we beat them? We aren’t divided. To save our democracy, we must find ways to reach those in MAGA Nation and convince them to leave it.

Here’s an amusing little anecdote about how I met a child a year ago and assumed she was a he and the shocking way her true gender and gender identity was revealed to me.

Tolerating ambiguity clusters with other personality traits: liberals are more tolerant, conservatives, less. In some senses, trans people are the ultimate in ambiguity because they give mixed gender identity signals.

Let’s say we actually do survive as a liberal democracy. What do you do with your favorite drunk uncle then? How do we continue existing as a nation with MAGA Nation after they’ve gone to such extremes? How do we help rescue people from the pit of conspiracy theories?

We’re focused mainly on #COVID19 news here in Cambodia and out of Medscape. There’s a lot to cover between the vaccine passport requirements, interesting mental health findings, and what’s coming up in posts and on the calendar.

We keep wringing our hands and clutching our pearls about so many of our social problems seeming not to know what to do about them. If you trace the causes of vaccine refusal, you eventually get to the root of so many of our problems, Republican refusal to govern at the federal, state, or local level and active sabotage of social services.

Ya can’t hold a good blog down even when you’re lounging on the great sunny white beaches of Cambodia! It was an exciting week on Ye Olde Blogge with mentions on Mike’s Blog Round Up and posts future and past and random visiting surges from random countries.

It’s World Mental Health Day, so it’s time to go through some “fun” mental health facts and dive into WHO’s plan to deliver the services the billion people with mental health issues needs. Sound like fun? It sure is!

Well, it took five years, but it finally happened, Ye Olde Blogge was properly trolled. And, they say Trump never accomplished anything. Read the entire ugly trolly story here, but put on your waders, the derp is extra deep.

Science fact: MAGA Nation goes against human nature. They tell us to do our own research, but few of us know enough to evaluate the vaccine and public health research that has concluded that vaccines, masks, and social distancing will mitigate the #COVID19 pandemic. We need to rely on experts to help us understand and decide what to do.

Ye Olde Blogge is going fishing next week, but I’ve managed to schedule posts to be posted during the week. The big news, though, is that Rachel Maddow.may be leaving her show in April. I’m devastated.

We have good news for once! Conservative regressive social policies propagated during times of national crisis, like the #COVID19 pandemic, backfire and cause the electorate to turn against the governments pushing them. Maybe there is hope for the 2022 election. Maybe.

We’re seeing MAGA Nation acting crazier and crazier with them taking ivermectin, avoiding the ICU’s, and nebulizing hydrogen peroxide to treat #COVID19 and even though the AZ fraudit found the election to be legitimate, they still believe it had fraud and the election was stolen. What’s the end game here? What do other hysterias have to teach us about how this one will end?
