re: #404 LudwigVanQuixote

A simple question:

Which is more contemptible?

The dim-witted, unlettered and insane, but misled and propagandized rube who mistakenly thinks they know better and would tear down the values of this nation out of an expedient sop to their own base fears hatred and ignorance…

The raving politician who truly believes the hateful message and would seek fame power and and an imposition of their twisted vision on the world by leading the rubes…

The opportunistic propagandist who knows better and pushes the evil message because firing up the rubes makes a profit and maintains and expands a niche market based on ever spiraling paranoia and insanity…

The behind the scenes career politician who knows better, but sees attaching themselves to this as a pathway to power and lends it legitimacy…

Or finally, the “opposition” party, who is too fractured by personal fiefdoms and concerns to stand up to it and who is too craven to act or even call the lies, lies and evil, evil?

It’s, like, just the System Dude. The System.
