Secede, California. It is a very good idea to leave a sinking ship. Isn’t it clear that the war makers are gambling with your lives, while pocketing huge profits? California, your government has abandoned you. They have ordered you to die. Don’t trust them. They lied to you, California. You know you cannot win this election.
this is true if you’re analyzing people who have already wholeheartedly and consciously accepted the ruling ideology. but when they haven’t, it kind of doesn’t apply. propaganda can entice people to disregard their rationality when they materially benefit from believing it. but it doesn’t mean rationality plays no part in it.
