It reminds me of one of my favorite Who songs, "Eminence Front":

"...it's a put-on"

There is so much that is staged, and it works, as we are seeing. "People forget, forget they're hiding" in their cave, watching the black-screen-boxes, getting sucked into and feed the drama. They become unwitting victims of harm.

Well said. They are too dumbed down and distracted to look past the obvious.

Brilliant. It's like seeing the plot twist coming in a mediocer book. Your analysis of political distraction is spot on.

Thank you for that and the kind words.
