Sobering message. Those with common sense are a dying breed. There's a generation coming to power that's been raised on video games, and who believe anything posted on social media. Nonsense like there's a basement below the pizza shop where they drink blood and sacrifice children, or that the Ukraine's Jewish leader is promoting Nazism, hence the nation and its people must be "purged" and brought back into the fold of the great Leader. With the way CO2 levels are rising, we may not need to concern ourselves much longer; politics will succumb to survival, as our planet begins to vomit us off its surface. Humanity is its own worst enemy.
Republicans (mostly, for the last forty years - since Reagan, basically) have seen to it that Americans are too comfortable and lazy ("dumbed down," if you prefer) to apply vigilance, either internal, and especially not eternal. Citizens have been taught (but not educated) to value money, but not democracy. Undemocratic as it may appear - and if it's not too late - we have to a better job of "indoctrinating" the meaning and value of democracy through teaching, and practicing a much more concentrated regimen of civic involvement.
