So maybe you are an Obama Supporter.
Or perhaps you are an Occupier.
Possibly you are a bit of both, possibly you are, or have been up to now, neither. Possibly you are not sure exactly what you are or where you should take your stand, really. These are somewhat confusing times. Everything has changed, everything is continuing to change. Rapidly. Things feel different.
Maybe it is the new naked and upfront fuck the poor radicalism of the Ryan Republicans. Maybe it is the out and out...and I mean OUT, hatred and demeaning disparagement of "the weaker sex" on blatant and disgustingly in your face display. Or maybe it is the utter substance-less of the "I have no actual plan to improve the economy I am just fucking rich so vote for me" arrogance of the Romney campaign. There is no longer any subtlety to the Class War, the 1% seems to have just said fuck it, and fuck you, we are in control, bitches...beat us if you can.
Maybe that is what is different.........the battle lines have never been clearer. Never been more starkly drawn. Never been presented in such utterly harsh terms, so stripped of pretense, nicety, and faux nuance. They are no longer pretending to be reasonable.
Shit is REAL. Now.
So maybe you are ...or were...a "Centrist." Or a "Pragmatist." A "Moderate" or an "Independent." Or maybe you were an armchair radical. Well you don't have that luxury anymore. The preliminaries are over. The fence you have been comfortably sitting on has collapsed, its foundations rotted by corruption and deceit. It is time to decide which side you are going to land on. And it is time to land hard.
Wherever you were before on the political spectrum, it is time to kick it up a notch. Fish or cut bait. Shit or get off the pot. Whether doing you means working for a campaign, getting out in the streets or just no longer backing down or holding your piece around the water-cooler....it is time to CRANK IT.
Whatever it means to Do You...NOW is the time to do it. Like it or not, the shit is going down, and standing on the sidelines just ain't gonna cut it in these new, exciting and, yes, scary times. So no matter hat you are comfy doing, CRANK IT up to the next level, the UNcomfortable level. It is now or fucking never.
Get involved.
Get hard.
Bring it.
CRANK IT
I'll see you out there!
