From the artist:
I often watch PBS or PBS Create, especially Rick Steves and other travel shows. The cooking shows are mostly mindless “comfort food TV,” sometimes literally cooking comfort food. NOVA and Christiane Amanpour are also excellent. Now this all faces an uncertain future. I also listen to community radio stations wherever I live, and since I’ve lived in several cities with good stations, I try keep up with some of them online. Now I hear announcements saying “We’ve lost our federal funding, please help cover the shortfall.” Same story for national parks. It’s just bizarre to see visitor centers shuttered in a country as prosperous as this one (speaking in the abstract). You’d think this was the Great Depression.
That's not what happens.
Next election the people will get back what they lost. This repeats over and over so the people all blame each other while the people truly in power makes money out of all of them.
by controlling the media they can redirect the people's hate on each other rather then those in power. Boomers vs Gen X, All Lives Matter vs Black Lives Matter, Red vs Blue, Texas vs California, taxes vs no taxes, etc.
Elections? You think the GOP and especially Trump and co are going allow for fair elections? You can't vote your way out of fascism. There's only one way out. But no one wants to deal with it.
This is what I am talking about...
If you voted with pitchfork in hand, then you see the candidates you voted for win, would you put down your pitchfork?
If the people really believed an election is rigged then they might riot. But logically if a person or group is in power wouldn't it makes sense to let one side lose to prevent a riot?
