That's it? You still see the world through the matrix. "I have to vote for one of them! I'll vote for the one whose speeches I like the best, even if he gave the orders to kill us all with fake vaccines." Not a great strategy--but I would have to agree that that is the structure in which we live. We have not been given any alternatives. We're going to have to change that.

Unfortunately, my entire adult life has been "vote for the lesser of 2 evils."

Yes--doesn't that always feel gross? After several decades of voting, I started to wonder why there was NEVER ever even a slightly decent "real" candidate. Now I know why!

I guess I should be glad that sometimes I do have very good local candidates. Just goes to show you that politics is a dirty business. I believe that the pool of candidates would improve if politicians were not exempt from liable laws and they could be sued for lying about their political rivals. Why should politicians get a pass to lie? And apparently some also have a pass to cheat...
