I've never experienced such a display of mass/collective hysterical insanity in unison about seeing things that aren't there, e.g. "Hilter", "Fascism". Classic case of a mob murmuring itself into deeper/greater hysteria by "geometric-ing down" on previous murmurings. They clearly ran out of "word rope" with which to hand themselves in public long ago, e.g. where do you go from Hitler? Satan? Then what? Beelzeehitlan? Maybe uppercase it and concatenate a perpetually increasing number of exclamation marks, e.g. "BEELZEEHITLANOHMYFUCKINGGOD!!!!"?
I mean, we all become used to suffering and/or humoring fools given they're typically the majority in any setting, but this time it's feeling like all out avoiding them altogether is in order, because there's no communicating with them. I mean, one of my wife's cousins screamed at me for merely saying the word 'Trump' in her presence, etc., etc. Unfuckinbelievable....
Two days from masses aligned in opposition parties pretending to be exercising a genuine voting system despite there being no proof to it being genuine save for the "winners" repeatedly saying it is.
It amazes me that people keep wishful-thinking this democracy thing is has any legitimacy whatsoever.
Oh and, as you implied, it's the 'winners' who support it's validity, not the losers, of course, they get to claim fraud.
By the way, I learned "democracy" is a "certificate of origin" (kind of like champagne): if it comes from Washington it is democracy, otherwise it's called dictatorship.
In vim:
:s/this democracy thing is/everything humans do when primarily motivated by self interest/
