Yep! I think we are all being played, or we are all in a simulation.
The speed with how everything played out, and how they are using everything to make Trump look like the mighty warrior, with fist in the air, bloodied face, shooting the war cry, "Fight! Fight! Fight!", looks exactly like sometime straight out of Hollywood.
If it wasn't for the number of people ready to lay down their lives for him, and the number of innocents that will be harmed because they trust a system that is corroded, corrupt, evil, and sees them as useless pawns, it would almost comedic.
As @"727Sky"#11 so frequently tries to remind us of Voltaire. I have three I would like to add to think about .
Quote:It is difficult to free people from the chains they revere.― Voltaire]
and
Quote:It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets.
― Voltaire
and one that I find myself most guilty of.
Quote:Opinions have caused more ills than the plague or earthquakes on this little globe of ours.― Voltaire
It is a time to think, not a time to react.
There I go with those opinions of mine again.
