Ok. Why & Why Fauci?
If you’re STILL thinking a politician running in one of two co-opted parties is going to fix an oligarchy you 1) don’t understand that both are PR fronts for state agencies & the MIC 2) Bc of it we don’t have fair elections 3) We’ve been there, done that. Learn. It doesn’t work.
