    I remember being super overjoyed when Obama won as I was entering college, and I still think he’s objectively a good man who did a hard job, at the same time, dude blew up a lot of brown people. Universal healthcare is mainly a bipartisan fuck-up, but dude was a war hawk.

      What!? You mean after he got the Nobel Peace Prize he went on to drop 25k bombs on the Middle East.

        I feel like that is almost a prerequisite for the Nobel peace prize… Henry Kissinger got one for fuck’s sake.

        Well, I’ll say it like this.

        In the occident, we engineer our culture to control those who cannot think for themselves.

        Obama is genuinely a good man, though I haven’t met him. Regardless, it behooves the power structure to have those who align with Obama to have the evidence to convince them his path is the right path for progress.

        Trump is a genuinely shit man, though I haven’t met him. Regardless, it behooves the power structure to have those not aligned with him to hate him so they are distracted and have a target to unify against. Likewise, it is good to have bad people cheer for him, for it tells us who the bad people are.

        You’re in a police state.

          Oh it is way worse than just a police state. The one defining power the US has is extermination. We live in state of constant extermination where our lives are worth nothing compared to corporate profits. We die and they lie.

            No we live in a state of forced evolution. People have to continuously adapt and the best adaptors break out of the system of machines to learn the occult, which just means “hidden.”

            The Illuminati was part of the police state. Guide people waking up to the half-lies into the occult while catching those people who just wanted to burn the church to the ground.

              That is an interesting way to look at it, thanks.
