Coup d’état

A coup
To create an oligarchy
Or more accurately
A plutocracy
To end a democracy
Already on its way to Idiocracy

And institute feudalism
With a side order of fascism
On the back of our information
We will be categorized and conditioned
If we are not Gilead or imprisoned

All under the watch of the weak
And the sex offenders
The racists and the anti-transgenders

Our only hope
That their stupidity and incompetence
Is greater than their hate, their ignorance
And weaker than our resistance

These has-beens
With their learning machines
And anti-vaccines
Parading around in their limousines

Are not as strong as the blades of our guillotines.
