The biggest illusion they have people trapped in is the two-party system. They've created tribalism with the two parties. Most people are foolish enough to believe that one party is better than the other or that one party is even that much different than the other. What we've seen here in the U.S. is that it's actually one big uni-party and they're all on the same side. It's a "good ol' boys" club and you and I aren't part of it.
People have the illusion of choice by voting for one party or another, but that's all it is, an illusion. Both parties want the same thing and they're both on the same side. The U.S. is actually an oligarchy but people are so naive and stupid they actually believe that it's one party versus the other. People have become so brainwashed with their fake news (CNN, Fox, etc.). It's all lies and it's state run propaganda no different than the state run propaganda in Russia, North Korea, etc. They've somehow managed to convince people it's not. What DOGE exposed however is just how well funded all these media organizations are by the government and our tax dollars.
I always go back to this quote and I would encourage you and anyone reading his to take this in and remember this well (it should be a bumper sticker):
"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false."
- William J. Casey, CIA Director (1981)
Yes, that is a real quote. This is one of those times that they slipped up and told us the truth. Of course they were counting on the fact (and rightfully so) that most people aren't paying attention in the first place. Our entire modern world we live in is one gigantic psyop. They're programming us to think a certain way and make certain decisions based on what we watch, social media algorithms (which are filled with bots), etc.
What they fear the most is a people united. Once people drop all the distractions and realize that at the very root of it all we have far more in common than we think, that's when real change will happen.
Again though, the idea that we need to be "governed" by others is suicidal on its face. The vision our founders had was one of self-governance. We should all be able to govern ourselves. Unfortunately, what we've found is that a large portion of the population is weak and is more than willing to trade their freedoms in exchange for being "taken care of" by the government. It's actually very sick.
Listen to this George Carlin clip here. I've never heard anyone lay it out more succinctly than he does. He hit the nail on the head. People by themselves are great. It's when you get them into groups and the group becomes more important than the individual, that's when things start to get this way. Everything that is happening is our fault. It's easy to blame others for it, but it's our own fault. This is of course why I love the Bible so much. It teaches me that the biggest problem in my life is ME.
