> They only want us to think it’s getting worse so that we don’t notice the GOP has basically died and so we stop laughing/getting upset with their antics over time. This fake news bullshit doesn’t affect most of us, just their slowly dwindling viewer base. Have faith brother
I really don’t mean to be rude, but you need to understand that is dangerously naive. They are rigging the next election as we speak, from county-level election boards in Georgia to Republican controlled statehouses in 20+ states.
We are heading towards a civil war and that’s not just my opinion. It’s the opinion of one of the leading scholars on this topic. The people we are up against consider themselves “sons of the soil”, meaning they think this country belongs to them. They feel themselves losing status, and they have reached the point of desperation. Those are 3 of the top 5 factors that predict civil wars, which makes them as dangerous as a cornered animal, and just as unlikely to give up.
You need to read this book, an executive summary, or at least watch an interview with author Barbara Walter.

Interesting book on how government debts aren't like common house-hold or business debts, and if we were well informed we wouldn't be fear-mongered about it quite so much.
