I’ve been saying for years that voting for the lesser of two evils is still a vote for evil. And, doing that, which we have been doing for decades, is how we got where we are. Those in power now are the ones who learned to use TV, radio, and now the internet to divide, drive and herd us using fear and propaganda. Looking back, it seems inevitable we’d end up where we are, and crystal clear this was the long-con intent for the past 60 years.
