Schizophrenia & Addiction: (& other 'Daamn-co-occurring-disorders') - (from the DaamnTalk blog, Recovery is Discovery is Recovery

As an 18-year addict-alcoholic newly diagnosed with Schizophrenia... We feel there needs to be more light shed on the harsh reality facing those with #MentalHealth issues today. Whether 'disease' or 'disorder' should fret Us not! Whether a predisposition, learned, genetic, gradual, self-propelled, instantaneous or environmental -Our chief concern is HOW to live with it - Not WHY (or what) it is... We know all too well WHAT 'it' does to Our lives!
As an addict in long-term-recovery from active addiction, We were actually approaching Our 1-year sobriety date when We fell into Our first-ever bout with Schizophrenia. Needless to say, the diagnosis was quite literally life-changing, as was the near-90-day-ordeal that led up to it. 'Schizo-Effective' was the first official diagnosis, resulting from a "stress-induced-psychological-breakdown". The thing about chronic delusion, it's extremely convincing to its inhibitor that it's reality, the 'truth'.
According to 'DoctorNdTV.com', schizophrenia is a 'clinical syndrome' characterized by various combinations of so-called positive and negative symptoms, cognitive difficulties, & impairment in ability to function. 'Schizo-Effective-Disorder' is a fairly rare disease, affecting less than one percent of the general population. Here are 7 little known facts about Schizophrenia.
• 1. Schizophrenics are not usually violent.
Schizophrenics are statistically more likely to be a victim
of violence than to be violent themselves.
• 2. People with schizophrenia are not disabled to perform daily tasks.
• 3. People with schizophrenia are very creative.
• 4. Schizophrenia isn't just genetic.
• 5. Schizophrenia isn't untreatable.
• 6. Schizophrenics are not "crazy" ...
(Daamn… Thank 'HP' We know We’re crazy!!!)
• 7. Schizophrenia isn't easily spotted.
The DaamnTalk #RecoveryDiscovery blog is for Us addicts with co-occurring disorders & diseases! For Us personally, apprehending Our disease was only possible once We were able to shed the stigma that We’d unintentionally stapled onto ‘mental-illness’. Believing all Our problems arose from Our disease of #addiction - viewing any perspective diagnosis (#bipolarawareness) as a weakness / - We are man! Brought up by the Schwarzenegger handbook!!) #Daamn if We didn’t have a lot to learn…
'Last year, after experiencing a seemingly random & utterly insane mental collapse of Our psyche, We were diagnosed with Schizo-E-disorder, a genetic mental-disability mimicking that of #Schizophrenia. The breakdown occurred just days after receiving an officer at Our door, with service of a perspective restraining order against ‘me’ & Our (then) 7-month old son, (via his mother).
The situation deteriorated quickly as on March 9th, 2021, We called 911 while pulling onto the side of a quiet, wooded road; underwent what felt like a heart attack after the onset of the most extreme panic-attack We’d ever had. After, (another), blackout, (the 2nd that night thus far), We ‘came to’ coasting 5mph on the wrong side of a similarly wooded, 2-lane road, with at least 3 cop cars & an ambulance surrounding Our ‘yota like they were Our own private escort service... ~{With a working ignition interlock in Our truck, We attempted to explain that We were in serious need of ‘physical/mental help.’} Mind you, We were rapidly digressing into ‘textbook’ paranoid delusion…' (Visit DT.DJO for Our complete personal story & ongoing blog, 'Recovery is Discovery is Recovery': co-occurring illnesses.)

‘ Us
Addicts, like the rest of the population, make daily decisions about what to allow in - & what to keep at bay. These choices, often appearing inconsequential, bring us one step closer to the life we want to lead - or one step closer to the hell we’ve crawled out from. Pain & misery aren’t exclusively reserved for addicts. That our everyday choices shape the lives we’ll live for years to come, that’s not unique either, as everyone dances with their fate in a similar fashion. What is the exception is the crucial neuro-spiritual difference noticeable within an addict’s framework. One that separates those who occasionally indulge in ‘a few too many’, from those of us who’ve had ‘many too few!’ This differential between Addicts & Normies is accompanied by the addiction’s bestest ‘ol buds, ‘mental obsession’ & ‘unstable compulsion’! Oh, & ‘physical dependency’ showed up to the party about the time ‘homelessness’ kicked in the door to find ‘liability’ ‘poppin ‘financial security’ right where it hurt! -A co-occurring-house-party!
(The following is from an original draft published #July2020)
‘I came across my ‘90 day
’sobriety birthday card
while in the midst of cleaning out my ‘ol Chevy ‘Purp.
So much has transpired since then.
Many memories made; friends acquainted-
-Experiences, Joy & Love felt, & yes, tears shed.
All in the absence of Heroin! Absent alcohol!
Without any simple sinister switches to another substances.
For years & years, I've learned and re-learned – (& re-re-learned)
-that my recovery is distinctly correlated to my spiritual condition.
The state of My Spiritual condition, however easy to read,
isn’t as easily traced back to source. Especially for us in
Addiction
(The previous paragraph is from an original draft published #July2020)
-- -- -- -- (end excerpt) -- -- -- --
Just as We couldn’t make the move from ‘sobriety’ to ‘recovery’ without first acquiring that honest
desire & willingness… remission became an option for Us only after complete integration!!!!! Owning Our state of mental health, admitting to ‘Self’ that this is a real condition! That, whether by fault or design, genetics or conditions; Our brain is physically different from most folks, requiring Us to ‘adjust Our levels’ through a medication-assisted-therapy-treatment regimen in order to be operating with what ‘most folks’ already have. (RECOVERY is Discovery!)
Who knows what We may find out about ‘Self’!?
Who decides what’s actually best for ‘Us’!?
Who determines what’s possible?!
Who creates ‘their’ own reality!?
Who ‘controls’ their Recovery?
#mentalhealthawareness : Because We may not be responsible for Our Disease, but we’re Daamn sure responsible for our Recovery! That’s why we’ve created #DaamnTalk (With 2 ‘A’s!) - to talk openly & freely amongst one another - discussing the things generally avoided due to ‘stigma’, ‘controversy’, or ‘political correctness’… Because BOTH of Our diseases thrive in dark, quiet solitude! AND ‘dis-ease’ will diminish when successfully brought into the light!!!!! Thanks for ‘Our’ time!

  • 'Recovery is Discovery is Recovery' : A co-occurring illness 'Talk'spot'.
    -- -- -- -- (begin excerpt) -- -- -- --
    'Even before our active addiction took hold, most of us had the underlying feeling of being different. Whether we were socially awkward or just had difficulty fitting in & playing well with others, we failed to develop the necessary skills to combat the stress of the grind.
    For Us, these issues didn’t ‘directly appear from’, but were more,
    Fortuitously magnified by our using drugs & alcohol as a means of coping.
    It’s fair to state that a primary distinction between Addicts & ’Normies’ is a bizarre filter of sorts. (Normie refers to an individual without the disease or lacking a diagnosis). This filter is guilty of interfering with free will/destiny, presumably residing thou not necessarily confined, in one’s mind.
    Information that is the human experience passes through this filter and is subject to the strict scrutiny of what we & the medical community have concluded to call, a
    disease. A disease of the mind, one that uses habitual thought-patterns to cleverly disguise itself as other aspects of addicts lives.
    Briefly, we feel qualified to speak on such issues
    as it’s been proven ‘one addict best helps another addict’.
    Some of us claimed overqualification & addressed this
    Crisis based on the merit of mere memory, however,
    As addicts, we’re prone to mis-remember & are always of the mercy our Freedom In Recovery
    vulnerabilities
    We mulled over every mistake & involuntarily exposed our vulnerabilities.
    We experienced each instance we were told that we, “weren’t good enough”,
    “weren’t going to make it”, like it was coming from someone who mattered.
    Yes,
    We heard every offhand comment
    made by those of you who either didn’t understand us –
    -or just - didn’t - want to.
    Those who either pre-maturely judged our prospective situation
    or altogether avoided our perceptive location. Societies always demonstrated public opinion; this has only been amplified by introducing the internet.
    (Trigger-Warning?) ‘crystal’ - clear which side of the argument’s owned by which. More than likely we
    Addicts can recall negative instances from our long-ago days of experimentation, & later ‘daze’ of recreation during the delusional indulging of Our ‘Drugs of choice’.
    Memories flashing first are accompanied by real, deep-rooted trauma.
    This process, arguably a form of compounded conditioning,
    got internalized & slowly sown into our primary personalities,
    every occasion when we were referred to as, “Just an alcoholic bum”,
    or “Another junkie loser.” We’re predisposed to unrightly persecution.
    If deviance is the charge, we’ve been pre-assessed & found to be guilty.
    As
    Addicts, we’ve already been deemed ‘toss-aside’ible by society.
    And at times, in shameful situations, treated as ‘less-than human’.
    As a result of our Addiction, this pattern of conduct metastasized
    into what became our
    Self-talk, (our inner dialog).
    Perversely eating its way further into our very psyches,
    a narrative greedily consuming our healthy habits by
    poisoning our personalities and overall perspectives.
    ... ... ... Is there really Hope for ALL of Us addicts(?) ... ... ...
    ‘When the student is ready - the teacher will appear’.
    Depending on where our recovery’s at, we’ll begin to view obstacles & confrontation in a whole new light. ‘Blessed’ with the discovery that our ‘spiritual condition’ is far from where we want it to be, each situation that arises in long-term-recovery can be seen as an obstacle -or- as an opportunity to implement a new technique.
    What better way to bring on the self-improvement(?)
    Every single one of us stumbled right into a ripe patch of our very own ‘character defects’. In the past, if acknowledged at all, we’d most likely considered these ‘problems’. Things to all together avoid, events to hurry up & get over with, (through self-medication in my case). For some of us, it’s either that or attempt to capitalize by using our ‘self-diagnosis’ as a self-justification to unconsciously play the victim over…
    ... ... ... (It really is such a selfish disease!) ... ... ...
    For the few who’ve found a new outlook on life & for the few-er who’ve adopted a new way of living, Acceptance was the answer if ‘how to begin’ was the question. ACCEPTANCE.
    This is universal; familiar with 'expectancy' & expectations, we were well versed in ‘exceptions’, just not ‘acceptance’. ‘Except’… we could not come to ‘accept’ that active addiction was to be Our fate.
    It is when We make this supple, yet savage distinction,
    that We establish what is the first necessary component.
    Desire. A desire to change.
    That DESIRE, accompanied by
    the gift of extreme desperation,
    is what finally led nearly every single
    one of us to the turning point,
    WILLINGNESS!!!!! ' -DaamnKam

Someday
Hardest pill to swallow
Why is DaamnTalk (?)
And WTD are We Talking about (?)

What the Daamn is DaamnTalk (?)

     Well, get ready to pour your alphabet soup! This explanation's a tad runnier than intended. 

——DTdjo——DontJustObey——DTdjo——
"Why IT IS?" DaamnKam here!!! DT is a channel for #WeThePeople to exercise our rights & “STAY IN THE kNOW!” In 2015, Nermak's 'DJO the DOJ' meant 'DontJustObey' the DepartmentOfJustice. This is very different from 'Don'tObey'...DJO is NOT about anarchy... DT.djo encourages #Questions - NOT  'just' blindly following any one entities 'definitive enactment' of 'Justice'. Sure, 'DJO' could of easily been 'DO'... the 'J' could have been implied - but... it's 'Just' too imperative to leave out!!! 
     'Just' say 'kNOw' to the NWO! (*Knowledge of the *New *Order for the *World) 'Just' in this context meaning 'simply'. We can vividly recall being nine years old the first time We heard the president mention a "New World Order." This was in relation to the planes & towers,  during the week of SeptemberEleventh. That mornings events successfully lit fires waay outside the confines of #NewYork city... The horror, the absolute abject insanity witnessed the world over... sparking the 'years long' inference We've been working on formulating ever since; Becoming more 'continentally-conscious' over the last 20 years.
     In June of 2021, We found Ourself in the grip of an insanity previously unfathomable. Aware of looking back at a 5 month long, curvy trail of Hitchcockian, nightmare-esque  events... curled atop the bunk of a cell in a twice 'county-condemned' jailhouse that was rumored to have once held Charles Manson... We were actually playing out (& not recognizing) the ramifications of extreme 'ego-detachment'. Having gotten cozily acquainted with the belief system & value hierarchy We'd developed as a result of Intellectually tinkering with sensitive materials from contradictory sources, We've a history of distorting Our perception to further Our understanding. (Drugs werent Our problem, but Our solution!)  Refraining from filling Our bucket with 'just' one tap; (As the old Chinese proverb goes, 'water that is too pure can sustain no fish').

     They say that 'crazy people don't know their crazy'... so if you think your crazy, odds are you actually aren't crazy. Though... We developed an all together different kind of crazy, call it 'Crazy' with a 'K' (#Krazy!) Believing We were in form of 'purgatory', any distinct differentials between 'conspiracy theorist' & '#TruthSeeker' became as blurry to Us from that jail cell as Our own inability to even consider that We were 'sick'... What We mean is, Our name, like Our phone number, had completely escaped Our recollection. Fortunately though, a nurse at that jailhouse did consider such things... having prescribed the antipsychotics that eventually led to retrieval of 'sense' & 'logic'. (Ultimately diagnosed with a 'Stress-induced-psychotic break from reality', or 'Schizo E-disorder') This was the first (& only) experience of extreme delusion while in longterm sobriety from all non-prescribed substances... it 'just' wasn't Our first experience with 'alternate realities. (See, that word 'Just' can reconfigure 'just' about anyDaamnthing!) Hold onto your 'Daamn-faraday-caps' if you want to read more on what 'I' can promise is an unbelievably bizarre, TRUE tale of Spiritual proportions! - 'More on that from #DaamnKam' within #RecoveryIsDiscoveryIsRecovery 🙏🏼

  To answer the question with 'BrassTax'  #DaamnTalkdjo is a series of episodic interviews featuring the contagiously courageous & controversially curious viewpoints of folks 'just' like YOU! Full, high quality audio video podcasts will be filmed on location in the IsleOfBig, as well as virtually co-created with collaborative contribution from DaamnTalk community members @ thatDaamnTalkspot.locals.com

   With a format loosely derived from both the #JRE & #ThunderDome podcasts, We will throw up & hold down discourse - as opposed to 'holding up' the actual conversation! (or the 'throwing down' that can often accompany (over)heated disagreements! DaamnTalk is a Talk'spot - DaamnTalkDJO is the podcast - Both are available ONLY for '#DaamnLocals'! 

Locals, Somewhat of a PATREON / Facebook hybrid - lacking zSuckerberg’s agenda &/or HD-agents 'banning in the shadows'!) With a vast amount of different communities, Locals features artists, writers, musicians, interview-personalities & creators of all kinds! Exposes them to one another & allows for an opportunity to Connect them directly with fans, friends & perspective community members. It’s like anything though, Just because there're no 'overlords' governing locals, no policing behind the scenes or limiting exposure through destructive algorithms disguised as 'Content-Moderation', -doesn’t mean a channel or brand will become destined to succeed! • It's ONLY by *working together to articulate acquired (*Knowledge *And *Matter) -  that a channel can *function like a community - No (HONEST) outlet can sustain itself- (let alone establish & get exposure) without the help of its contributors! Think about it... Did Mr Beast get to where he is without a group of diehard fans staring, caring & sharing him to the WWW (?)     •WWW (WorldWideWeb)

    • through the act of expressing Our experience, We're effectively putting Our thoughts on display... "Putting Our virtual self on the digital shelf" as Nermak used to say. Proposing 'passion-pertinent-dialectics' & a permanent place to exercise them MAY appear to come naturally to Us... don't be fooled though, even with Our age-old 'vow to honor the Truth above all else'; Vulnerability can be uncomfortable even on the best of Us.  
   • Having survived an adjacent life experience during the same period of time, discovering that the woman who mothered Our only son was not only lieing, but using 'me' for 'my' resources. An act of betrayal at the most findimental of levels, convincing Us of the differences between 'bad' & 'evil'.  
    •The horrors or falling for someone who suffers from #NPD ('Narcissistic Personality Disorder'), Daamn, even 'Narcissism' was a foreign concept prior to 2018... We can definitively attribute that relationship to the collapse of Our psyche that followed. No woman can 'make' a man do or feel anything though, correct(?) 🤔 Therapy session's galore have since led Us to better understand the particularities of this peculiar 'sickness'. Having survived a nearly 3-year encounter with a woman whom We've come to refer to as 'Muzik's mom'... Nearly a year of intensive bi-monthly therapy sessions led to the processing of a realization... post-Schizo, with almost 2 years in Recovery & 1 year away from the psychological torture inflicted by the woman we've come to regard as more like an old 'teacher' of ours.. more that than an 'Ex-girlfriend' or 'BabyMama' because those terms carry the implication of 'partnership' ~{More on Our survival story can be found under #ToxicDaamnesty - #Narcissism - & #MakeBelieveKrapSanFran}
     Eleven paragraphs in & We'll now make a DaamnClaim 'on the record' - that it's through the act of sharing one's 'conclusions' - that they have a tendency to either 'get sharpened' (-or-) 'get run-off' -by what's *REALly 'True'. We can comfortably claim this assertion, having experienced it within Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, psycho-therapists & mental health professionals Until We got the only 📜 degree to date, a 180; We were the quiet, self-conscious ‘over-thinker’ so eloquently outlined in a particular spoken word piece 'NoChildLeftBehind’. (Link here:)

    AnyDaamnWay, IF 'I' can hold your attention for another minute - maybe it'd be With,        -The weight of the matter.
     That’s what keeps Us pulling up Our BigBoy'sextrovert-shorts’, every Daamn day… 'An introspective perception of our collective direction'... The momentum We’ve witnessed in America since 2001… The weight of the matter
   What We kids used to call, ‘Heavy’.    
       Cultural, Social, Political affairs. In addition to this - is what WE EACH perceive to be ‘the matter’ with the ‘wait’! So many citizens have been ‘waiting’ to ‘weigh in’! Maybe some don’t vote; lacking pride in their country either mislead by Media propaganda or genuinely arriving at their own indifferent (or 'wrong’) conclusions. Others come off as a though they’ve 'mistaken' Freedom for Granted since the Regan era… 🇺🇸    
       (Reganomics… Another DaamnWorthy subject We admittedly know very little of for an altogether different time!) How cliché to say, ‘Freedom Isn’t Free’ - Well, IT ISNT. -
Some spend their lives fighting for it, while for others, it actually cost their lives… Having been close with family that served, We’re grateful to have developed a mindset that the sincerity of Our respect for ‘ServiceMembers’ isn't directly dependent on their political identities. All those residing in a #FreeCountry inevitably ‘pay dues’… We’re no exception (exception-al? maybe… fore We've 'Spent’ accumulative years in
critical contemplation.  
    Once but a child staring into the skies of 'Why', We seem to have always been able to recollect asking the most intriguing & intrinsic of questions - *WHO ARE YOU(?) Eventually manifest as WHO IS GOD, ‘always entangled with the important issues of 'Today’. Coincidentally, the answers to this question change as often as the way We've phrased the question! That's another 'Daamn entirely! Leaving that at this; An 'optipredictistic' of sorts ~ {the Universe will see the rising and falling of such 'matter's long after We will … (both 'see it' and 'rise or fall') 😉}~ 

 yet, still… We’ll be the first to admit WE DONT KNOW! #WHY We'll open a segment asking, #WhyItIs

The ‘Why’ has maintained Our curiosity & focus for as long as We’ve held memory. In one of Our earlier interviews, a U.C Professor of American Politics nicknamed yours truly ‘#TheInquisitiveMind’. We in large part attribute Our particular upbringing for having emboldened a ‘Philosophical life’ of sorts. Not religious, yet we said grace at the family dinner table nearly every night. Not political, yet Our folks didn’t shy away from serious discussions & they both took voting seriously. Not a graduate, We’ve no college degree’s (yet!), We did undergo the K-12 experience within public Education, (K-10!), got Our GED during a yearlong stay in Montana at a ‘Troubled-teens Academic-institute’, eventually exceeding the amount of English credit requirements to attain a general associates... (At this time thou, Our indoctrination’s marked ‘incomplete’) We’re also Not an only child, with a sister 5 years the younger we both helped keep the other more honest & aware !
The product of privilege, though not having understood it as such at the time; not only did We have solid, ‘silver-plated’ middle-class spoons, neither of us two were raised without a parent. We can only speak on Our personal experience, We unintentionally surrounded Ourself with more ‘working-class’ peers, almost always in one-parent homes. Introspective hindsight has since dictated that #ignorance was a symptom from the privilege of having a solid (“conventional”) 2 parent #FamilyUnit.
•Going on 4 decades of togetherness, ‘Green’Rene & Lynnie’Lou are still happily married & both play integral roles in our lives! Our dad, Rene, (pronounced ‘Green’ without the ‘G’), the ‘infamous’ Seattle detective who single-handedly located #TedBundy (retired), and Our mom, Lynne, the youngest Daughter of a 6’2 giant, Solomon WingHing Wong. Our grandpa (‘Papa’) was the Chinese patriarch of Our ‘Ohana during Our lifetime. Lynne was 1 of 5 kids raised by Solomon & his wife Joan (‘mama’). They too were together until the end, belonging to a generation when if something valuable breaks, it’s slowly repaired rather than immediately replaced.
Now both in eternal-rest together, on Oahu.
We made their daughter, the award-winning ‘mother of 2’, ‘grandma’ back in 2020 - again (for
good!) in February of 2023! Like #DK himself, Lynne too is (‘Blessed Not Lucky’), a continuing survivor of the disease (#ChronicAddiction). Differences often swallowed in similarity, her ‘#DOC’ (Drug Of Choice) was alcohol. Definitely not the only difference though, as the year she finally stopped drinking was the same Daamn year that DaamnKam began! (Daamn, This ‘3rdperson’ stuff’s rough! ‘We’, after all, consist of 3 different ‘beings’! The spiritual, the physical & the ‘legal’… hence, WE can use OUR own pronouns too!)
The 19 year Sobriety Our mom’s collected since serves to make Us proud, for sure!, but it also reminds Us that, in essence, We’ve been struggling with it for as long as she’s been recovering from it (in relation to this path of Recovery). By the grace of Our G.O.D, We too have been away from ‘active addiction’ since 3/17/20 - & the ‘DOC’ wasn’t alcohol! — For a better understanding of ‘Who the Daamn DaamnKam is — see Nermak’s ‘The Same Difference’, link as follows:

If you’ve read this far… you too, deserve an award!
<— But you’ll settle for this reiteration, —>
‘It seems as though - now’a days - all it takes - to be considered a philosopher - are a few opinions… just as, overnight, all it took to be considered a ‘Hero’ - was diminished to wearing a Daamn mask!’-( NerMak’Black )
In addition to the regurgitation of ‘Truths’ along this #Spiritual journey ♓️ We’ve learned enough to know it’s an impossibility to accurately *verbalize one’s ‘SpiritualAwakening’ - whether interpersonal, existential or otherworldly doesn’t matter when dealing with separate incarcerations from the same source. We hypothesize a downfall of this sort beset countless historical, potentially “Christ-like” characters.
(Oh ‘GÔD’, here he goes again) 🙄 Nah…
to refrain putting on a crown of thorns (Religion)

  • We’d rather ‘put on’ - an emphasis to the following dilemma: We don’t know - what We don't know !!!
    If We think We got it figured out… BoOm!!!
    -game changes! - We feel one of the key components to Philosophy is maintaining mental fluidity; that ‘water-like’ state Bruce Lee touched on while he was here, as Bruce Lee! We want to pick up the pieces from where Nermak left them; Continue his creation, expanding the proverbial puzzle by initiating OPEN DISCOURSE (To put the information- in (accurate) formation!) An integral part of this are the abilities to consume & create, read & write, (For Us Daamners, this means ‘demand & supply’) Important, yes; arguably one’s ability to articulate their thoughts has a direct correlation to their overall effectiveness. Yet, this is admittedly only one part. We’ve been learning since that initial onslaught of ‘Spiritual Reality’, 17 years old & suddenly presented with previously unimaginable #UniversalKnowledge, not exactly ‘data’ that could be applied anywhere - (Knowledge Of/On/From the ‘Universe’, or ‘ultimate true existence’ / AKA - the *present / AKA / the ALL-KNOWING / The kNOW! /
    Having witnessed the #SummerOfLove & Our collective reaction to the pandemic, We decided early on - that ‘collective response’ (reaction) - WAS the pandemic!!!
    Adjacent to the curfews & lockdowns -
    • The restrictions & limitation of Freedom!
      With January 6th’s “deadly-insurrection” landing smack dab in the midst, the internet ‘suddenly’ became a breeding ground for ‘Radical Extremists’ & ‘Domestic Terrorists’! “Emboldened” by an “illegitimate” president. Repeatedly booting the man out; of social media, yes, but the fact remains that A FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES WAS SUCCESSFULLY DEPLATFORMED - First, by BIGMEDIA, (as Former President Trump calls it, ‘Fake-News’!) Then, SocialMedia cast him out faster than they did AlexJones for claiming the Sandy Hook elementary school shooting was staged!!! All of this is factual info, which We conclude is #DaamnWorthy when considering the amount of Americans who reportedly felt that the 2020 Presidential election results were faulty, rigged!!! Somewhat ‘distantly-related’ to this group- (like the family that Our blood-family knew back in the day that lived next to a little boy named ‘Donald’, a little boy who’d repeatedly bounce his ball against the side of their house while claiming it was rightfully ‘his ball’ to do with as he would…)- the election integrity broken by the DNC in 2016 targeting then POTUS candidate #BernieSanders. Bernie, like Donnie, regardless of any unique electoral perspective and whatever one thinks of each man’s individual character, served up the ‘REALity’ of the absurdities In Washington to millions of people! (All be it with drastic difference) Trump was NO longer an ‘apprentice’ to even himself, commanding an audience far “GREATer” than the previously achieved ‘reality-tv’ audience
      DaamnKam here, attesting to having voted for Obama in Our first opportunity to participate in the election process. Having witnessed Bernie Sanders shake up the establishment in 2015, taking a deep look into the man’s history & listening to him speak in person, We actually worked diligently on his campaign in 2020! (It’s true… We were a self-proclaimed #BernieBro) UNTIL that is, We began to listen (hear) the ‘other sides’ arguments. Looking back, this consisted of a series of impromptu deep discussions with people we’d ordinarily not have had an excuse to get politically acquainted with. (A ‘Republican Conservative’ Tattoo artist on WeirdbeyIsland, Green’Rene’s old hunting buddy Jimbo, his old partner (Our uncle) Ron Trezise, Our former NA sponsor, former boss & ‘open minded conservative’ ‘Trump guy’ Mr Pahr, and of course T-Rumples himself aided in Our ear-bending enough that by the time Our ‘Peoples-Champ’ Bernie Sanders had endorsed Biden like he had Hillary, - We were already all-ready to vote for the ‘Anti-Bern’! 😮🤭🤫… 🤣
      So, Having voted Red for the first time back in 2020, we’ve been able to dig up Our own foundations & inspect the architectural accuracy of Our own ideas & conclusions… The sum of its parts far more expansive than where & when each little piece was made… Examining the individual ‘components of character’ that conceptually connect the one they inhabit! The beliefs behind the body - the mainframe beyond the mind! The ‘who’ that answers when asked, “Who are you?” One’s collective ‘consciousness & conscience’, co-existing whether one knows it or not. Conclusively, it’s an identity!
      We Humans are ALL creatures of learned behavior! We developed our own aspects of individual uniqueness - by watching others act out what they’ve already developed!
      In other words, One can’t do it alone, even if We wanted to.
      “(Most) useful Truth - is mutually understood.”-NB
