Not “power over them”. Don’t be ridiculous.

Remember the Satanic sacrifices of the 80s/90s? The mass shootings of the 2000s? And now whatever we have today. You haven’t noticed the last ten years uptick on racism and other world affairs? You haven’t noticed all the “white extremism”?

Those are the voices in our heads.

Bannon is a client. Bannon is an “inside man”. Bannon makes human sacrifices of the innocent and lawful for Power, and this Power makes him act like Yoda and commit treason through Trump as he eviscerates national security and loots our humanity for Power.

I do remember the panic over Satanism that never existed and was never happening. And I’ve seen an increase in mass shootings that seems roughly in line with the increase in toxic male role models. I’ve not seen any particular increase in racism, in fact I’d say that’s dropping as more people recognize that race isn’t actually a thing. And the whites are roughly as extreme as ever, especially the ones that believe too literally in concepts like good and evil.

Bannon is an idiot. Trump is a greater idiot. People who were easily manipulated in exactly the same way using precisely the same playbook as in the 1920s and 30s (and, indeed, as in every prior century) voted for idiots at the behest of idiots because they’re idiots. No power (or Power) involved, and no voices either, just confirmation bias and assholes willing to leverage it to get into office.

> Satanism that never existed and was never happening

Never happened? Talk about cognitive dissonance, here’s a police training video from the 90s.

That Satanic sacrifice stuff was really real. “Satanic D&D” now that was a scare fad.

As for that other stuff, a fine example how your brain which knows nothing is representative of public knowledge. I don’t care what idiots vote for. I’m talking about lawlessness and the threat to our public trust.
