I think we are at interesting times but we’ve always been at these junctures, it seems.
For example, in the time of JFK, the government was planning a false flag to get itself into war. They wanted to bomb something, I forget the target, and blame Cuba so they could get into war. JFK refused and we know what happened to him, for among other reasons.
Gulf of Tonkin for Vietnam..
weapons of mass destruction for Iraq
I’m trying to say that indeed we have a lot of issues going on but there have been considerable points in the past where there were also some really scary and disgusting things those in power wanted to do simply for more war, control and power.
I disagree with some of the actions of the current administration for sure, and we shall see how they shake out!
