How crazy that Americans aren’t embarrassed by this deadly lie.
Nope, I'm incredibly embarrassed and scared

Without an absolute seismic shift in American media and politics or a very massive and probably vert violent revolution, the county is done for.
A lot of us are ...
I'm too paralyzed by fear to be embarrassed.
Many of us are.
