S0 much about this piece is true and yet the misdirection is stunning. Classic propaganda mixed with disinformation. In your search for an explanation of the Horrors you have siezed on two characters from the past and their paltry manifestos. I get it, a life preserver in a tempest, after you have been tossed overboard by your own logic.

Abandon all pre-conceived notions of what the truth is. In that act you just might see the truth for what it is. Humans are not in charge. Never have been. The USA was an accidentential Slack Zone for a few short years until Empire got a hold of it again and the rest has been a sort of Black Market Play Ground until now.

Besides, Universe will eventually balance itself out and the great flush will happen. After that we start afresh. We can see the cracks in the facade widening by the minute, and then the Empire will pull up stakes board their ships and move to the next planet ripe for harvest. Let's hope they don't roast us in a fit of spite.
