I feel like this analysis could apply to the U.S. as well.
Our country is not dead, but we’re not fully alive either.
Maybe we haven’t gone full zombie yet (or maybe we have and just can’t tell). But we’ve definitely been bitten and are in need of an antidote before time runs out.
If we our nation was an organism, it would be grotesque. The head would be engorged with excess fat and blood while the extremities whither from malnutrition.
The brain wouldn’t function properly—the two hemispheres would be split and unable to process ideas from one side to the other.
We are not healthy,. We are a danger to ourselves. Trump is just a toxic excretion—ridding ourselves off him does not cure the underlying disease.
