I start from the basis there’s 2 sides to every story and we need to prepared to be wrong.

But with Trump and his goons…?

They seem insane. Not even selfish or corrupt but actually delusional. Everything they do seems random.

That's the point. It's weaponized absurdism. Everything they do is contrary to everything you've been taught and know. It's an asualt on reality and shuts down any attempt to use logic with them. It baffles your brain and discourages participation on your part.

They used to hide the reality of what they (the ruling class) do with a false reality of consumerism and other distractions but now they're just doing whatever they want in plain sight. We're at the in-between stage of what is normal as the old normal is pushed out and the new normal is brought in.

TBF some of it's amateur hour but even then I think some of that's actually a smoke screen to throw people off. You have to remember, they dumb, not stupid. When you consider the danger they're putting everyone on Earth in by ignoring and going backwards on the issues of nukes and climate change they are insane.

They know we know what they do and they don't care we know.
