    If someone can’t see how our world can get this messed up without some shadowy cabal of global controllers, they’re a simpleton.

    The world is not a tv show plotline.

        Foolishness in the digital world has less disuasive power than irl. Flips the script a little bit, which is why people are willing to invest in it as a tool of actual power. Qanon demonstrated this. Now kids are getting measles.
