[Peace-discuss] TDS among the intelligentsia

[C G Estabrook]

Caitlin Johnson: "Things mainstream Americans believe that are exactly as dumb as QAnon:
-Russia controls Trump
-Trump wants to help Venezuelans
-The US is a force for good in the world
-Western interventionist disasters have all been innocent blunders
- MSM is a reliable source of information"

None of the Americans I know (academics, mainly) believes these things, yet they believe something even more lethally insensate and criminal:

--that all will go back to "normal" when Trump is gone. Thus, even though they don't believe any of the things on the list they believe "normal" is good. You see how craven they are to accept the abnormal (a lying press, a lying malicious interventionist US government) as "normal" so long as it's not headed by a Trump? Laziest moral sons of bitches on the globe!
