60 seconds of social-blistering truth

Early this morning a friend sent me what Brits would call a jolly good video of a Canadian gentleman — former member of parliament and formidable voice of seething clarity — addressing his fellow citizens about, in part, the "gangster" Donald Trump's "full-on police state tyranny."

The speaker, Charles Angus, preceded his "full-on" veracity with the observation of America's "creeping fascism" being an altogether anachronistic phrase. My comparison but Angus' gist: Trump has blown past any such stealth at a pace equivalent to Adolf Hitler's as newly sworn-in chancellor.

Don't mistake my harsher retelling of Angus' words. The honorable gentleman from the realm of civilized governance of civilized people in no way adheres to aggregate luminaries' conventional practice of oratorical delicacy and diplomatic horseshit. To "gangster" Trump he adds the incontrovertible yet U.S.-muted titles of "convicted felon" and "sexual predator."

From there Angus proceeds to discourse on my country's atavistic primitivism and selfsame barbarity in its tolerance of a fascist Leader who, by the way, also just happens to be an extraordinary threat to not only what little remains of the Founders' constitutional republic and to spiritual virtue-exampling Canada but to the "international rule of law." Scarcely a tertiary menace in the mind of any rational citizen of the teetering free world.

Should you have at least 60 seconds to spare, hee thee to those of the video's opening. (The speech, roughly nine minutes; about 16 of Q&A.) You'll thank yourself, heap thoughtful praise on the content and perhaps forward both onto others.

Post-viewing my singular regret was that I'm unable to force feed the fullness of it all — critically important personal safety measure — on straitjacketed, seat-tethered MAGA morons, a hundred-thousand at a crack. Notwithstanding that they're impenetrably armor-plated against any advancing force of enlightenment.
