How Gullible And Defeated Are The American People?

by Travis Mateer

If this image makes you think of two distinct ideologies competing in a free market of ideas, congratulations! Your mind is ALREADY occupied territory, and any thinking that is derived from this fallacy of false distinctions will be worse than worthless, it will actually HELP the psychopath class neutralize the biggest barrier to enacting their anti-human grab for global government: America.

Montana is a great example of how worthless the distinction between Democrats and Republicans has become. Why? Because, despite the vast scale of our geography, Montana’s population is small, and that makes the political dynamics a little easier to track, like watching the waning influence of labor support for Democrats while Republicans struggle to find any cohesion at all, offering easy buy-in to wealthy political outsiders who exploit the blinding hatred conservatives have for liberals, effectively obscuring how snakes like Greg Gianforte have taken hold of Republican politics in Montana.

To see the impressive dysfunction of both elephants and asses in Montana, just look at the 2023 legislative session. What happened? I’ll tell you what happened, since I was there advocating for tax legislation that failed to pass: the people Montanans sent to Helena wasted their time fighting a culture war instead of using a billion dollar surplus to deal with taxes, health, and the housing crisis.

In Missoula, which is DOMINATED by Democrats, two politicians come to mind when it comes to housing and culture wars, and the first one is Danny Tenenbaum, a New York transplant who I filed a police report on when he secretly recorded footage inside Crosspoint Church.

Did anything happen to Tenenbaum? Nope, he’s one of those Democrats in Missoula who seem to be above the law. Even those who stand in JUDGEMENT of others don’t seem too concerned about appearing to violate campaign laws.

It was one of those judges who threatened me from the bench when he told me that I have a “floating” criminal charge that has yet to be officially filed in addition to the FIRST charge I’m facing for allegedly violating a temporary order of protection.

FOLLOW THE MONEY brayed Kimberly Reed, creator of the propaganda piece titled SEAT 31 about Missoula State Representative, Zooey Zephyr. Did I want to puke when I heard Reed bray like an ass about the strategy she followed with John Adams, resulting in the documentary Dark Money? Yes, but I persevered for about 15 more minutes before walking out.

Another Missoula Democrat, Ellie Boldman (formerly Ellie Hill, then Smith), should be thanking Kimberly Reed and all the other culture warriors for ensuring the focus stays on the topics where failure wasn’t bipartisan, like with housing.

Here’s a picture of Ellie sitting at an important table with our Governor, Greg Gianforte. Why is the table important? Because those sitting at the table were a part of Gianforte’s housing task force. I’ll get to their “achievement” after the pic.

How did this task force do, considering the explosion of housing prices in markets like Bozeman and Missoula are some of the MOST unaffordable in the country?

Well, people who boast law degrees, like Ellie, managed to stitch together a bundle of confusion that Montana’s Supreme Court put an INJUNCTION ON in December.

From the link:

In his order and preliminary injunction, which stops the laws until the trial’s final outcome or the Montana Supreme Court rules differently, Salvagni criticized the Montana Attorney General’s Office for how it handled the issue, and agreed that the Legislature’s approach was “chaotic” and likely rushed, resulting in a mix of confusing and contradictory rules for cities and counties to follow. Furthermore, his ruling said that the lawmakers also appear to have cut the public out of the process completely, raising serious problems with the Montana Constitution.

Great work, Danny and Ellie! And to further exemplify how Democrats in Missoula DO NOT seem to care about what the public cares about, here’s Ellie Boldman inserting herself into the Fort Missoula development controversy on the side of Max Wolf, the developer. I wonder why? (emphasis mine):

Others sided with the developer on the issue, including state Sen. Ellie Boldman. While some grants may exist and could be secured to help restore the hospital, alone they’ll fall short of the true cost.

Without another stream of revenue to complete the work, restoration won’t be possible, she said.

“The condition of the hospital right now is just too far gone, too decayed to be salvaged by public grants alone. There won’t be enough public funding,” said Boldman. “I have zero doubt that if we want to work together as a community to save that hospital, the economic feasibility really means a multi-use development in some small way. It’s clear we’re running out of time.”

Work together as a community? Bitch, please. If Ellie hadn’t been run out of Boise when her power play at the Boise District Attorney’s Office failed miserably, Missoula wouldn’t have been forced to deal with this duplicitous train-wreck leveraging homeless people for a political career.

Seeing the Boldman name pop up in a Marty Gomer article helps me make sense of seeing the Ellie Boldman/Ryan Sudbury pairing I witnessed walking down the sidewalk on Thursday as Ryan (one of Missoula’s city attorneys) made his way to the Fort Missoula Council hearing. Interesting, I thought, before replying to Ellie’s “Nice to see you, Travis” with a loud WISH I COULD SAY THE SAME ABOUT YOU, ELLIE!

The caliber of people making up our laws in Montana has gotten so bad that any shiny cultural object will grab their attention and keep it. Why? Have we gotten so used to fighting un-winnable wars since the Vietnam Era that it’s simply become a way of life here in the states?

Projecting American Strength beyond our borders is a sentiment that certainly sounds like a conservative talking point, which is why I’m assuming a MONTANA Governor is spending time trolling the FEDERAL government in Texas, but my disgust for ALL political talking points (since they don’t correlate with what I like to call “reality”) leads me to express my bipartisan frustration like this:

Talking to Billy Mc on Twitter is like masturbating a dildo, or believing in the two party political system, and I’ll offer his bio as evidence:

The Western Montana border crisis is a Gordian knot that required, back in the day, a form of direct action (Alexander’s sword), something NEITHER party is capable of even pretending to use, especially when you start untangling the kind of curious relationship that exists between the Missoula and Mineral County Sheriff Offices, and the relationship of the Mineral County Sheriff to the Highway Patrol, and THAT relationship to the Attorney General’s Office.

Maybe it will take someone with a Zombie Tool sword to cut through the political noise that will be building this year into a crescendo of unholy bullshit so loud and deafening that maybe a true grassroots movement to WITHHOLD THE VOTE will take hold, and we can all collectively delegitimize this whole ridiculous charade and start over.

I mean, a boy can dream, can’t he?

Or maybe the boy should learn to compete more like a girl.

At first glance, it may seem like men are more prone to competition than women. They can be more risk-tolerant and use more physical aggression toward each other.

Their friendships are by and large transactional, and their conflicts are typically straightforward and direct.

Women on the other hand often experience emotional depth and complexity in both friendship and competition.

If they seem less competitive than men, it’s because they sometimes enact their rivalry drive in more covert and clandestine ways.

Maybe I’m wrong about all this and it’s ME who is pretending to NOT be defeated. This is definitely a possibility, since I was clearly wrong about the face of Sean Stevenson, produced as a giant magnet, being an invisibility cloak to hide my covert marketing device.

This blurry selfie is me outside City Hall on Thursday night, after securing my marketing device to a pole. My experiment concluded the following day, around 9am, when I got a polite inquiry from Missoula PD about this work of art, specifically how quickly I could come down and get it MOVED!

Today is Saturday, not a day I usually post new content, but it’s nearly the end of the Big Sky Documentary Film Festival, so if I have any new readers I want them to know to NOT be alarmed if a motley crew of artists infamous for garnering noise complaints finds a creative way to test the supposed CONSTITUTIONALLY PROTECTED freedom of speech tonight.

It may or may not include a dildo named Sue.

Thanks for reading!

  1. On what basis did police demand that you move your bicycle? It wasn’t abandoned. There is no law against “storing bicycles on the sidewalk.” The giant magnet was on the bicycle, right? They can’t make someone move a parked car because they don’t like a bumper sticker. Why is this different? I don’t yell insults at adversaries I encounter on the sidewalk. I would, however, have some choice words for police who demanded that I unlock and move my bike because they didn’t want my message highlighting a matter of public interest so close to City Hall & the downtown cop shop.The abridgement of free speech in Missoula is intolerable and keeps getting worse.
