@Lobster When psychological manipulation is amplified through carefully orchestrated propaganda in order to achieve goals defined by the cold hard calculus of power and greed then it becomes obvious that someone has realized it is an exacting science.
But, alas, this is just my humble opinion based on observation.
Mathematical science shows what is. It is the language of unseen relations between things. But to use and apply that language, we must be able fully to appreciate, to feel, to seize the unseen, the unconscious.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”
They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

This is the power of local protests. Locals see their fellow locals protesting. People they know and trust. It isn't a protest far away by some far off other people. I's by people they know and trust.

The Atlantic has some great photos of #NoKings crowds.
Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A 56 yo survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)

Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
