What if everything is scripted? [View all]
What if, just like a daily soap opera/reality show, writers are writing daily scripts for public consumption. The American public has been primed to demand drama. Whether people are for, or against, they are addicted to drama. The current administration seems to be cosplaying, acting, putting on a show. They don't have to care if the magas love it, or the woke hate it - its drama to be consumed. Distractions. Nothing happens as a consequence because we are sated with the drama of it all.
Praying solemnly for a blue tsunami in the midterms to stop this madness.
