Everything is always better
with someone to blame.

Conspiracy Theorists excel
at finding/inventing someone
to blame.

Donald Trump and his Congressional
hit squad
are great at blaming
their Woke enemies for everything.

And Trump's steady theme
of "I'll save you from THEM!"
plays around every clock
on all media outlets,
transporting the country
back to Hitler's Germany
and their hated enemy "The Jews."

It is amazing what
non-stop propaganda can do.

We can gauge our degree of indoctrination
by the number of questions 
we don't allow ourselves--
or permit others--to ask.

Who among the Trump legion
are asking questions of Trump?
The WOKE enemy idea is assumed by all
and questioned/explored/investigated
by none.

Their indoctrination is complete,
and on-going.

And the vulnerability of the entire country
to the proliferation of media driven lies
increases daily,
with Russia and China joining
the internet driven alternate reality production
to create a world
no one can trust to be what it is said to be.

My recommendation it to quit listening to anyone.
Me included.

I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing. I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
