The Dystopian Party

Is there any other way of looking at our political lives as anything but dystopian?

This way of looking at our political lives—dystopianally—would seem to be the only thing the Right and the Left in this country might agree on.

I once admired The Black Panther Party, but it dissolved in 1982 under great duress from federal and state law enforcement. While I admired their efforts I’m not sure whether I could have been a member of The Black Panther Party, being neither black or a panther, and I settled back in to a state of comfortable if agitated dystopianism.

On or about 2001, my thinking began following a line from Rabelais to Voltaire to Flaubert to Beckett to Thomas Bernhard. I saw very clearly that The Republicans and The Democrats have had their time, that their time’s coming to an end.

The Dystopian Party, not The Green Party or The Libertarian Party, is the party of the future. ( please spare us Libertarians.)

I pledge allegiance to The Dystopianism and its United States of misery, suffering, injustice for all…and to The Republic for which it stands, One Nation under rubble and surveillance…

Not to mention poor leadership.

I’m rallying around my dystopianism!

The Dystopian Party is getting my vote in the upcoming midterms.

Now all that’s missing is a platform, and a PayPal account to which both outraged and engaged Dystopian’s can send their money.
