Mass Chanting

I think you are condemning antifas, which is fair. They are a particularly nasty aspect of something good. Protest.
I could almost succumb to some sort of paranoia that antifas are set up to discredit genuine human rights and left-wing (an almost totally discredited term by those who fear it) politcal agendas.

You are a powerful poet, mate. Which makes it very important that you think and clarify what you say.

I think it's a really great, short, hard hitting piece.
Love the synchronised swimming imagery, god, that activity alone makes me shudder.
You got it in one, summed the protesters up perfectly.
It's a gem.

Willow- Giles, do you know everything about everything?
Giles- No, synchronised swimming completely mystifies me.

And here I am thinking you meant extreme left wing democrats lol. But the truth of bewaring those who chant/march in lockstep to Any ideology come through clearly.......stan

but am appalled by what I see some other theists do in the name of a loving god. Zealots of any kind are to be ignored or outlawed depending on how far their extremism goes.

Either to the left, which would once have been described as an 'infantile disorder' or the right who would could be described as ' a bunch of useful idiot apologists' - that leaves this poem, particularly well placed. Pithy and succinct - and going by the conversation above, I'd hazard a guess that technically speaking, you're a philosophical pessimist - not necessarily a bad thing, just an observation.

Good stuff, thanks,

Chris.
