13. I was just discussing this
with my husband. Why is it that the lunatic fringe gets all the attention? These flat-earthers, by all rights, should be laughed right off the public stage, but no. Here they are, occupying the highest levels of government!

Take Bush for example. In a sane world, this half-wit shouldn't have even been elected. I believe that the vote was stolen, but still, millions of people voted for this ass clown. What is their problem? I think I have a disconnect between what I think this country is and what it really is. Honestly, Americans voted for Nixon and Reagan enthusiastically, even! Reagan? For fuck's sake, I was a teenager and I knew the guy was bad news. Even now the media talks about him in hushed tones like he was some god. Give me a fucking break.

I have no hope for my fellow citizens. They seem to want endless war and want to lose their jobs.
