We have a mess for sure, mostly because we still have TV-addicted family and friends, ones who will have also been addicted to being embroiled in drama by now, especially with all the torture we have endured for some years. Those family and friends will continue to protect their intellectual captors. As for the rest of us, there is a definite split, where we already know it is propaganda, and we do not watch any of it, except maybe just to check in and see at what temperature the lies are bubbling.

I look forward to a day when none of this can affect our lives, even by proxy over a family meal… I just do not know in what timeframe I will personally see that day. Mark my words though, we will all see it in due course. They have overplayed their hand.

I have watched/listened to many people since Trump win, even with no rioting- which is out of character- the hate / tds / bitterness /seething/ wishing of revenge and death is more serious than 2016...maybe it's just certain ares- idk
