have to make it seem so close so there's not another real uprising against the ruling class elites and have another "literally hitler" moment going after the rothschilds.
fucking idiots always fall victim to the left vs right duopoly like the bread and circuses sportsball has taught them all their lives - team red is going to win! no, no, team blue is going to win! see how cool we are, we wear red shirts! see how much cooler we are for wearing blue shirts!
meanwhile the laughing, hand-rubbing merchant who owns the t-shirt company is laughing their ass off.
