is this the new world order?

It's not unusual for me to be diametrically opposed to my fellow contemporaries. I'm used to being out of step with the people around me. While others are tentatively welcoming the 'denuclearisation' talks between Kim Jong Un and Donald Trump I am absolutely horrified.

My degree isn't in politics and I don't claim to have any special insights but my gut is telling me the photos of these misogynist despots shaking hands is just plain wrong. I want to scream when I see them on TV. This is a dangerous development. Trump is realigning his position in the world and in a spectacular display of dark-twin Gemini behaviour is making the mother of all duplicitous moves. The world watches - impotent and relatively silent for now - as he shafts his historical allies, flipping the bird at Canada and Europe and cosying up to the 'enemy'. Only a rogue Gemini could be so blatantly and unflinchingly two-faced - and proud of it.

Trump isn't trying to help the world. This attention whore is focused on one thing - closing the biggest 'deal' of his life - the outcome of which may well be the end of the world as we know it. This is a reality TV show with dire consequences. I can't believe anyone is falling for it. Many aren't if you check the tabloids. 

This is the new world order - China, North Korea, the USSR, Donald Trump and no doubt anyone else they can pull in - the new A-team. Maybe North Korea really has reached the end of its nuclear program - there was talk that the launch area had collapsed. Their economy is certainly in dire straits. But maybe Kim's arsenal of nuclear weapons will simply be added to the pile of other boy's toys controlled by Putin, Trump and Xi Jinping. North Korea may be ready to come in from the cold and join the corrupt capitalist party that continues to trash the world. 

I have avoided watching the news for 2 days and I've been in a shit of a mood. I can't say it's a direct result of what's happening on the world stage because there is a lot of other shit going on in my life as well. I've been grumpy and in conflict with just about everybody around me. I thought I'd check which astrological house the moon was in - just so I could blame something. And there it was - a dark moon in Gemini. Sun in Gemini and a void moon in Gemini. I believe the anti-Christ has landed and his name is Donald Trump. (note: this is northern hemisphere so we are a day ahead. Click on it to read).

It's equally possible Trump's latest stunt will come to nothing - that Kim is simply making the same vacuous promises we are used to hearing from straw-man Trump. Apparently any venture begun in a void moon will be 'unsuccessful', which means this could go either way. Unsuccessful for who? Trump or the world. If Kim is brought in from the cold - will his appallingly filthy human rights slate be wiped clean? The only people with the power to hold him to account have no morals, no will and no intention to do so.
