The Truth Hurts, But It Must Be Told: America Is Not Okay

We are living through some of the most dangerous and insane times in modern history. And no, that’s not an exaggeration—it’s reality. A man with a criminal record now sits in the highest office in the land, backed by an elite class that seems hell-bent on turning America into something we no longer recognize. This isn’t politics anymore. This is survival.
Let’s not sugarcoat it. We are watching the slow—and now accelerating—collapse of democracy right before our eyes. Authoritarianism isn’t coming, it’s already here. The dictator playbook is being followed page by page: silence the press, remove the opposition, brainwash the masses with propaganda, reward the rich, punish the poor. Sound familiar? If it doesn’t yet, you’re not paying close enough attention.
The Rich Are Laughing, The Poor Are Dying
While billionaires are padding their portfolios and growing wealth by the second, the rest of America is struggling to breathe. The elderly are choosing between food and medication. The disabled are being left behind, ignored like they don’t matter. Veterans—yes, the ones who risked their lives for this country—are watching their benefits get slashed. Middle-class families are watching their dreams vanish. Social Security, a lifeline for millions, is under attack. Public schools are being defunded and closed while private schools get a red carpet rolled out for them.
This is not “reform.” This is not “making America great again.” This is targeted destruction of the working class, the vulnerable, and the voiceless.
The System Is Broken—And Everyone Knows It
The scariest part of all this? Those who claim to stand above him, those who say they represent law, justice, and democracy—they’re doing absolutely nothing. Congress is a circus. The Republican Party has lost all credibility. The American people are waking up and realizing they’ve been lied to, sold out, and thrown under the bus by the very people who swore an oath to serve them.
There’s no sugarcoating this. The trust is broken. The system is rigged. And if we stay silent, we become part of the problem.
What Comes Next?
Here’s the thing: the future is not just uncertain—it’s terrifying. But here’s something else that’s true: we are not powerless. The people still have a voice. The people still have fire in them. But we can’t afford to sit this one out. It’s time to call it like it is, without fear and without compromise.
You might get labeled “radical” for telling the truth. You might lose some friends, or followers, or even opportunities. But that’s nothing compared to losing a country.
We need unity—not the fake unity politicians talk about—but real, grassroots unity that crosses race, gender, party lines, and class. We need to fight for each other, not against each other. Because the people in power? They want us divided. They need us distracted. It’s how they win.
But not anymore.
If you're reading this and you feel angry, scared, heartbroken, or hopeless—good. That means you still care. That means you're still human. Don’t let the noise drown out your voice. Speak up. Organize. Vote. Educate. Refuse to be manipulated. Refuse to be silenced.
Because history doesn’t just happen—it’s written by those who show up.
And we? We’re showing up.
Stay awake. Stay strong. Stay loud.
With love and fire,
Santiago D.C. Maria
