    RMP

    And we have citizens in America and posters on these threads who seem to quiver and shake over the challenges we face. Not very inspiring to keep reading their posts.

    I'm quivering and shaking, but it is from rage, not fear.

    Tutu had the advantage of a large majority who very clearly saw things for what they truly were.

    Here in the US we do not have that advantage, those of us calling the alarm are a small minority who are despised by all "right thinking" people.

    On the few occasions I have let the full force of my true feelings be known other than online I have gotten either shocked silence or violent argument and then shunning.

    The propaganda is simply too pervasive and has gone on for too long.
