(#5844) Although skeptical I still hold hope America will reverse this current insanity

      Why oh why did we have to do this to ourselves. again! I know why now as it is a lack of knowledge on the part of too many who don't know they lack knowledge. I have been wondering for years why anyone could not see the difference between democrats and republicans. What I have finally defaulted to is that the voting electorate in America is so uninformed as to how to be good people that we fall to the easiest excuse to pretend to be good. We accept lies if they give us answers that blame others. We accept pain and suffering if we are told it is necessary for us to succeed. We in essence have abdicated our own intelligence for the belief that someone else knows better what is best for us.
     I don't know what event or catastrophe must happen for the light bulb moment to occur for a large swath of souls but I suspect it will be a cruel and brutish event or occurrence. As wicked smart as logic is the use of it has been abandoned by too many of those who find it inconvenient. What they get in return for avoiding their idea of inconvenient is monstrous and in no way an equivalent trade off. What we may see in the immediate future is the continual dismantling of our myriad societal norms. It won't come in drips it will come as a gusher. Then another gusher. The forces of warping our society into another without democracy are working overtime to make that happen.
     Yet all told I know we Americans are not going to let ourselves swirl down the drain. A rebuttal is coming and the form of that rebuttal will be unmistakable. When the shroud is lifted from the eyes of the victims of disinformation a reckoning of a considerable nature will occur. The very idea that this current climate of power that is being wielded will continue when the vast too many are inflicted with hardship is not the American way. The American way has always been to fight when harm is obvious and relentless. Those who stand against we the people are about to find out the hard way that justice is a concept objectively waiting to find the right time to commence.
