          It’s obvious to you and me it seems but people still learn about it for the first time everyday. Whether it’s a kid with their first smart phone or someone who was just lucky enough to live in ignorant bliss in their own life for years until one day they start to see things around them that they didn’t notice before. Their reality slipping away sluggishly and painfully, the America they pledged allegiance to was no longer there, no it was never there. It was lies, it was indoctrination, it was the insecurities made malice by powerful phobic cowards seeping down upon the masses, poisoning them and everything around them.
