Everything is a distraction from the fact that our politicians are all corrupt millionaires and we're effectively a country run by an oligarchy. Literally everything else is a distraction from this, to keep the machine going as long as possible, before a revolution takes place (which might happen without our lifetime, if we look at recent events).
:yawn: When in your lifetime were politicians not "run by an oligarchy"? It's so boring when people just hang onto the latest buzzwords and say nothing of substance. You think they need aliens to distract us from this?
