    Most people I've seen that talked about Armageddon had a variant of schizophrenia, or were at least temporarily in a psychosis.

    To me it doesn't matter of that involves a fundamental Christian talking about Jesus, or a suicidal black metal fan.

    Foucault wasted a lot of words on the suppression of insanity -- while it is an interesting academic gymnastic lesson, it's not my cup of tea.

    I've yet to experience a sane explanation.

    I kept seeing this headline...but this is the first time I've seen it from a credible source.

    I think we've lost the sensitivity to respond to this nonsense. Years of rage baiting etc.

    I think Trump could take full autocratic control of this country and nothing would happen at all. Not from the citizens, not from congress. It would be business as usual as we shushed our nerves with "this is just fake news" or "I'm trying to live an unplugged life" or "if it was really bad somebody would do something about it"
