(2,715 posts)Let me put this more simply.
You must, of course, protect yourself from the brainwashed masses. Don't hate them, it does not help you. Your enemy is not the zombie, it is the brainwasher.
I am asked how do we stop the brainwasher. I am told that the masses are evil. The masses can be evil. They are being programmed to be evil. But fighting them does nothing.
The source must be stopped. Follow the money. Behind the corporations, behind the political groups, behind the think tanks, there are evil men that want us to hate each other and spend our wrath in a futile fight. I am not sure how to fight. When the elections are rigged and every Republican President in my life has been a traitor and every one of them has participated in rigged elections or worse yet became president without even being elected.
I don't know how to get our country back. We need to get it back quick, we are being poisoned and our world is being poisoned. I do know this. It is not the poor or the weak or the sick or unemployed that have caused so much damage to our country. It is the powerful. It is those with wealth. Our anger at the fools that follow the evil bastards at the top, does us only harm. Yes, a lot of them are brown shirts and possibly worse. But in a decent environment, they would not be.
Remember, that when you fall into hatred and anger, it is harder to see the truth. Just as the Mighty Wurlitzer has brainwashed the fools that support an obviously evil clown, these tools for deception are aimed at us as well. If we supporters of Hillary and Bernie are turned against each other, If we are consumed by anger for the idiot tea party zombies, we become distracted from the real enemy of our planet and our nation. It is easy to get angry and lash out at someone within reach. It is also useless.
We must aim higher. Those poor fools who voted for and still support Traitor Trump, are destroying themselves by their actions and beliefs. Lets not join them in their folly.
There are those that have voiced that I must be a shill for trying to speak out for reason. My advice is to examine those that council anger and hatred.
We need resolve. We need to take strong actions. We also need to think carefully and make sure our actions are aimed at the source of the problems and not at the victims.
