14. That means that you have a brain

Because most people out there do not have a clue. They go along with their nose buried in their electronic toys and pretend that this is all some TV drama that will surely have a happy ending.

Ask the average person if they understand how the Nazis came to power in Germany; ask them if they think that something like that could happen here? Most of the time you will get a blank stare.

First of all most people only have a the vaguest notion of what happened in the run-up to WWII. Most people don't know that a Fascist cabal attempted to overthrow the election of FDR. Most people don't really understand what "fascism" really means and cannot comprehend that the USA as we know it could be effectively destroyed by this menace.

Unless we fix this - we are in deep trouble.
