1. Trumpists & @GOP Radical and Religious Right fanatics - which seem to identify themselves as the only genuine Republicans - fall into two classes, with some overlap: Manipulators and Manipulated. They protect the powerful while keeping the majority exploited, ignorant & weak.
2. If hundreds of thousands die unnecessarily because of the pandemic implications of this widespread mentality of either manipulating the masses or "faithfully"/"loyally" accepting authority's manipulation of them, so be it.
3. Powerful media voices (@FoxNews, @newsmax, @OANN, @CBNNews) enforce loyalty and fidelity to the societal roles - the essential @GOP classism - that perpetuate race, gender, income inequality. Their pastors help. Their pundits help.
4. It will take a sea-change, in a segment of Americans indoctrinated to reject fiercely such a change, to realize that The Party of Big Business has identified themselves with Government Of, By, and For the Super-Rich and Powerful Few, Suckering the Gullible Many.
5. And I would not put it past the Rich, Powerful, and Psychologically Shrewd Forces of Media Messaging to bring new "information" to light every day to the effect that constructive change is not simply a matter of The People waking up and forcibly rejecting this manipulation.
6. These voices might claim such a Progressive Populist reform, that rejects the Ideology of Manipulator/Manipulated politics, is unheard-of, untried, untested. So were many reforms that have benefited society in countless ways.
