Nothing has changed. Nothing will change. Those who are in power are there because they are smarter, stronger, and more ruthless than everyone else. They lie to the sheep when it is convenient, and because it amuses them. That is how it has always been. That is how it will always be. Trump is a little aberration in the status quo. He allows us to vicariously let off some steam, but without letting it go to far. No politicians will be executed for their treason, no MKUltra monsters will face death for their crimes, no billionaires that have stolen our privacy will become broke or be raped in jail. Our fellow sheep will always remain ignorant, and we few that notice what is actually going on will always be ridiculed and demeaned for our "conspiracy theories." Q said it himself. Cant let the sheep know too much- it will disrupt governments. God forbid.
America was different for a brief period in history because people felt free due to the huge expanse of land. Our ancestors were pioneers, and charted the course of their own lives because they were alone on a prairie, or lived in small towns geographically separated enough to limit outside interference, and of low enough population where each man could have some value and self respect. In the industrialized world, the free, self-determined man is history. It's over. The common man is worth nothing and can be replaced by a robot. Only the top 1% of the 1% have any real value.
Life is a dominance hierarchy, and no matter who wins, nothing will really change. Our new slavers might allow us a little more room to breathe, but we aren't going to stop being sheep. This is biology. This is nature. This is the life that God curses us with. Grow the fuck up.
