It is all an illusion, this idea they promote on freedom. Our own intelligence communities have conducted many experiments without consent not only abroad but at home (the MK experiments). They run the bulk of the drugs into the country only to subsequently jail those who sell it for them or use them. The FBI picks the winners and losers of organized crime. I have written here on all of this. My latest one examined Whitey Bulger among others.

The depths of depravity they demand from us from behind their illusion of caring and freedom is chilling.

Democracy...the right of the masses to be manipulated into targeting their neighbors for theft and bullying. They are bought with such a small slice of the theft. Yes, we were founded as a Republic with limited democratic systems. That has been flipped, and now they are making a bid to do away with the electoral college.
