6. I just finished "The End of America" by Wolf. All I see around me is,....

,...mindlessness or a persistent state of denial. I am terribly concerned the fascist track may be imminent given the mental state of America.

It's sad and far more scary than the distantly remote possibility I or anyone I know could be a victim of a 'terrorist' attack. I mean, what has happened and is happening in terms of a power grab with NO respect for constitutional protections or limitations let alone basic human rights is, in my mind, a far worse example of terrorist activity than any single act of violence.

If I were able to make an exit along with my family, I'd do it immediately because the mental state of America is so damn vulnerable, apparently, to this turn towards dictatorship.

I wish I didn't live to observe this happen/ing to a country I had believed in with my whole heart and soul.

I have given a recommendation and kick this up.
