2. I agree wholeheartedly on the so-called leadership in charge...

I mean to reach those at the bottom of the pyramid, the ones that are totally and almost mantra-like in their conviction that any and every social program is "the Gummint" and they are "all stealing from me to give to THEM (whoever 'them' is at the moment)...

The leaders of this are irredeemable pieces of shit...but if there is no hope for converting the dupes that love and support them no matter what and in spite of ALL evidence to the contrary, what do we do?

After WWII, large populations were "de-nazified". Are we going to do "demagating" or is it even possible for those who desperately want to believe it to their own deaths if necessary?

I am legitmately concerned that it is neither possible nor worth the effort at times and that is scary as hell...
