Wicked cool, scary, and truthful imagery Michael, thank you.

I first read "1984" in 1970.

In 1974 my high school Government class teacher (Mr Fredrickson) said "Pay attention this is the only impeachment you will ever see in your lifetime."

I graduated in 1976.

In 2000 I lost any faith in the less than supreme court.

In 2025 I fear for our democracy.

Gee, that looks just like that "portrait" that he just insisted the State of Colorado erect in his honor. (In other words, hideous.)

Every minute--okay, slight exaggeration--TACO proves just how weak he is, how easily he falls completely apart if someone even says, "Boo" to him. What a total failure he is. It's just laughable how he's using complaints toward the media that are absolutely true of him: it's been too soon to be able to determine the results; this will take time and people on the ground to make full evaluations; and on and on. But he's so pathetic, that he can't even recognize that this is true of every ridiculous statement he's made about the results from the instant after the bombing to now, too.

All he's done is fall apart in front of the entire world, proving again he just can NOT deal with having anyone have a difference of opinion, one of the basic foundations of both humans, in general, and this Republic, both.

THIS IS ART! It captures the feelings, emotions, and fear of the moment. It is channeling the vision of Orwell in his Scottish writing hideaway. If the movie people decide on a 1984 remake, like they did with Bladerunner or Dune, they should call on Michael de Adder.

Reading 1984 in the early 1960s was scary but nothing like the fright I feel by watching and reading about what's happening in the United States at this very minute!

We live in dystopian times. Fiction books written ages ago suddenly turn out to have been mislabelled and can now be found in the non-fiction department of the bookstore...... that is if the "Moms for Liberty" thought police hasn't confiscated them for burning.

Great image of the top dog chewing on our democracy. He is almost at the bone with little flavor left. Soon the bone will be tossed out.
