It's called denial. Until 2016 i honestly felt the slow walk towards a dictatorship but it felt like a long ways away. This country is a tin pots wet dream. Like getting the keys to Dad's car and oh shit . 358 and a kilo of Peruvian?

Until 2016. Then it felt like the floor tipped and the sliding hasn't stopped yet. It's terrifying. People are dying literally everywhere and the only concern is who is to blame. We must establish blame before the tragedy ends and i feel that the uncertainty that usa presents in it's current state is very much to blame (i stress that's how i feel, be it rational or irrational) and like wtf. People are fuckin dying but the blame must come first.

So here we are, shit sandwich and a turd burger. So yeah most people don't see it because it's terrifying and probably been pushed away as unimaginable. We're very possibly going to see more violence and death because someone's team wants to break all the toys.
