This is PureLunacy.
The goal is simple: Question. Challenge. Rise.
Question: We must question our society, our government, our lives and examine the reality before us. We must analyze our problems, our societal structures, and our very personal views.
Challenge: We must challenge the viability of our social construct, new and old. We must challenge the concepts that are so quickly becoming the norm and challenge the concepts that are already the every day standard.
Rise: We must rise up to the plate and become a catalyst of change. We must rise at whatever capacity we have, locally and nationally.
Media manipulation and monopolies are nothing new. What should be new is how we react and create a change to address these issues. #PureLunacy #America #USA #Trump #Media

Society is always astonished when things fall apart not because the signs weren’t there, but because the majority live in a bubble denying the reality occurring around them

Although Biden endorsed Kamala Harris, Democrats are right where Republicans were in 2016. Split between the establishment & progressives (for Republicans it was the tea party at that time), without a clear leader, and uncertainty before their national convention!

The showdown of confidential documents found in Biden’s possession is just a repeat of Hillary in 2016 and Trump in 2022. Same mess different day.
