So many people have lost their ability to think and reason and want to live in pretend worlds. Unfortunately, these people actually get to vote, so I guess their will get one bone free

Could be argued we live in a pretend world already,before the madness sets in.
Was reading a psychology paper thats main premise was its not a safe idea to show your authentic self to the world.
It was encouraging people to wear a mask in the public settings. So its not that far a leap to start dressing as a fire hydrant hoping
some of these dogs may come and piss on you.
