Personally, I have always suspected that there are shitloads of conspiracies trying to mess with my mind, constantly, coming both from the Left and the Right, and also from education, religion, entertainment, the legal establishment, Madison Avenue, Wall Street, Silicon Valley, the Fed... you name it. Sometimes certain factions of conspirators find common ground on some issue, and other times they disagree about things... but basically, anything that is allowed to be on the news at all is only there because someone up above us all wants it to be there, to manipulate us into something. I could see how some people thought Trump might have been able to break us all out of the cycle, and end the bullshit and somehow give us sort of a clean slate. But, I don't think he has been able to do it, and I don't think he will be able to do it.

Also... maybe this is just another conspiracy, like a lot of people think, but to me it sounds like scientists are being sincere when they tell us we are in really, really big trouble because of global warming. I personally think Trump and his cabinet are really, really, REALLY screwing up, bigtime, when it come to that issue. They might be screwing up so much that we won't even have much of a future. So, with that in mind... I guess there's no point in worrying too much about anything.
