Thank you for sharing your truth Sally. In your defense, billions were invested in grooming tens of millions good folks with unhealthy narcissism. On the bright side, the moment I heard far right-wingers using the term "grooming," I knew they might have blown the whole game because of course strategically, they were educating their flying monkeys on the slow burn magic trick used to psychologically manipulate and control them, so many more will figure it out eventually.
Yeah. Unfortunately, your paragraph below contains an uncomfortable truth about me and how I was programmed to think from a very young age. I was a “Capitalist Pig” - look it up, it was a thing - even tho I am far from wealthy and very much someone who considers herself a good citizen & caring neighbor… it took me sooooo long to open my eyes to the obvious truth of your words. In my defense, I would like to say the extreme lust for mammon seemed carefully couched for many years as something in the common interest - “a rising tide lifts all boats”. It was a gradual grooming, by experts. And I was too willing to mindlessly go along, for too long.
Your words:
“It’s been clear for a while that the GOP is only interested in publicly serving those who pay them, which is why they push every day, in every way, to get more money into politics. It has nothing to do with ideology. It is the pure power politics of me, myself and I.”
