Our Great War

Clint Haugen
Dec 6, 2024

Our great war is a silly one

It really is

It is not a war over land

Or over which God is the one true God

Or how a society should be governed

Our great war is not some brave rebellion

It’s not a fight for freedom

It’s not even a class war anymore

And it’s not a war to take down a tyrant or a terrorist organization

It’s nothing like that . . .

No . . .

No . . .

Our great war is not like the past wars, not even close

Our great war,

mine and yours—the great war of 2024—is a war for our attention.

Yes, our great war

Is a war for

Your attention.

Will you fight for yourself?

. . . Well, will you?
