Can CoronAmerica resist the narcissist?

On November 3 rd  2020, surviving COVID19 Americans will decide between a creepy, forgetful Septuagenarian weird, uncle figure and a Septuagenarian racist, pussy-grabbing, misogynist with an Olympian Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Donald J Trump has consistently displayed all the classic symptoms of NPD, for four long years. The  Freudian  checklist for Donald’s chronic narcissism will begin to sound familiar very quickly. First does the 45th   President possess a grandiose sense of self-importance? Does the Pope do number twos in the woods? Arrogant, vain with a relentless sense of his own superiority, (‘I have the best words’). Trump is the most malignant Narcissist since Herr Hitler. From the day Donnie first threw his toys out of the Trump gold-plated  perambulator , he’s been ‘special’. We, after all are lucky to have him. Does Donald live in a fantasy world that supports his titanic delusions of grandeur? Again, Pope Francis is back in the woods d...

COVID Conspiracy Theories spread faster than COVID19!

Trying to make sense of the car crash that is 2020, is a tricky business. Which is why conspiracy theories are born. From a laboratory manufactured bioweapon to tracker vaccines, that know what you had for breakfast. One man’s conspiracy theory is a trillion men’s misinformation. Clutching at straws is what human beings do, when our world is in meltdown. In writing this piece I do not wish to trivialise the gravity of the situation we find ourselves in. The very nature of Social Media and the light speed a rumour, falsehood or fabrication, can whizz around the globe is frightening. I sincerely urge you to stay safe by continuing to practice good hygiene and physical distancing. As well as avoiding public gatherings and by isolating yourself, if need be. It’s a tough call but these are tough times. So, in no particular order here are some of the more colourful Coronavirus conspiracies that are nuttier than Secret Squirrel doo-doo. First, as I’ve already mentioned, features a swarthy ...

George & COVID19: Triggering a second American Civil War?

The first shots of a second American Civil War may have already been fired. COVID19 ravaged cities across the United States, still have George Floyd protesters on the streets, weeks after he was killed. Is indifference, bitterness, grievance and good old-fashioned hate, dividing America enough to mobilise combatants to a second American Civil War? Telling Tweets. The Orange Man in The White House recently turned on his own Social Media Channel. Accusing Twitter of liberal bias, after they had the temerity to fact-check a Trump Tweet. ‘Social Media Platforms totally silence conservative voices. We will strongly regulate, or close them down.’ Spookily, the most telling Tweet wasn’t tapped out by small orange fingers but came from an Evangelical, Pastor Robert Jeffress. ‘If the Democrats are successful in removing the President from office, it will cause a Civil War which our Country will never heal.’ Scary s***! North verses South? Not this time. So, who’ll be fighti...
