Moment of Truth

They took absolute power.

They re-invented war as tool just for their fun and profits.

They declared ownership of Space.

They were used to use torture and big lies.

They redirected the stream of taxes into their own accounts.

They bought judges and bullied MPs.

They changed the “Fourth Estate” to “For The State”.

They...

are only the tip of the iceberg.

You can’t change a mighty democracy just with a few men – you need much money, many persons and a lot of time, a crazy lot of time and money and men, infecting the whole organism.

"It Can't Happen Here" by Sinclair Lewis, 1935
book review by Joe Keohane
[The leaders] most formidable task, convincing Americans to renounce bedrock democratic principles, was already accomplished well before he took power. It was just waiting for its moment.

So...

are they beatable?

And what if they are? What if true investigations would start uncovering the Tangled Webs They Wove?

Can they dare to lose power?

It’s November, the 5th.

Waiting...

for the Moment of Truth.
