 By 2024 America had become, openly, what it had been careening toward, secretly, for decades - the place that Octavia Butler had imagined.

A more accurate statement would be that Octavia Butler had foreseen and foretold an American all-white, all "christian" power structure: a replacement for and resurgence of a Jim Crow, but that unlike its predecessor, one that lurked in all the nooks and crannies of our Republic; it was a power structure enhanced to include repression of all the whites who hadn't seen the light.

And there were a surprising number of those whites outside of the light.

That light was magnificent: it could have been the light engulfing the dead Jesus in the arms of his grieving mother.

That light included the halo engulfing a wanna be Queens mafioso, mafia name: donnie the dildo (DTD).

Who felt deeply that he was the next Jesus.

Or Moses.

Or Cyrus.

Or whatever sold at his massive para-religious light haloed rallies.

You know, the ones where people cried hysterically as the dildo preached the gospel of greatness - or something.

At its base it was always hate.

Nobody was ever sure what it was that he said because the videos were always blank when re-played.

Most white people (WP) fell in line; some didn't.

Dedicated to the suppression of WPs who didn't, and for everybody else, there were the various Militias: The Loyal Brigades, the Soldiers of Christ and The Stevie Bannon Lonely Hearts Club Band key among them.

Those organizations brutally put down the massive popular dissent which arose from America slithering down into being a screw-loose theocracy.

The resisters were known as the Other-Than-Us (OTU).

The Militias were brutally final in their treatment of these - previously - fellow citizens.

There was a surprising amount of that OTU resistance, given the overwhelming desire of white people to make peace with the dildo.

The Militias meted out suppression with vicious precision.

So a New Era (NE) dawned.

"The Soldiers of Christ" really was the name of one of those White Dominance Armies - WDA quicky emerged as the referent for that generic class on beings.

WDAs enforced White Christian Law - WLA - (a wag once called it Sharia for White People and was quickly be-headed) across the land.

And all of those - the dildo called them "enhancements" to America's professional military were augmented with more weapons of mass, medium, or light destruction than any band of White Christian Nuts (WCNs) could ever have desired or have hoped for.

And donnieLand commenced.

That was long before I woke up in a big leaf maple on the Nehalem.

Just down from Oney's.
