By the by, Obama is awesome. Unlike idiot-in-chief, he is smart and can use logic.
Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

Not sure you missed anything. I feel like Nico probably frequents other more toxic discussions around the internet and got his eggs scrambled.
Unless he's been posting under an alt... Worry???

Something like, 'I don't even think of liberals as human anymore, there are dark times ahead'....
As opposed to a 'real human':

Funny how the biggest 'skeptics' so often turn out to be the biggest dupes.

'“Preppers” are an important market segment for Infowars, and ads on its website bring better response than on other conservative media shows, said Chad Cooper, who owns Infidel Body Armor, based in San Tan Valley, Ariz. He spent about $5,000 a month on Infowars advertising for his civilian body armor line until recently, when he suspended his advertising because Infowars started selling ads to too many of his competitors.
While he does not take in Mr. Jones’s show — “he’s a nutter,” he says — “I’ve spent quite a bit of time on the phone with these Alex Jones people who order from me,” and described them.
“They’re nonbelievers in what the media tells them. They think there’s more to the story,” he said. “They think there’s aliens, and the government knows about that and they’re not telling them. They’re all religious, and they’re very concerned about the direction the government is going.”
“He’s really good at scaring people,” Mr. Cooper said of Mr. Jones. “He gives them that sense of urgency — they need to hurry up and do something. Now.”'
'Early in 2002, a heavily armed man entered the grounds and set a fire. Citing Mr. Jones’s reports, he said he was convinced that child abuse and human sacrifices were taking place at the retreat.A similar scenario unfolded more than a decade later, when during the 2016 campaign Mr. Jones helped spread the “Pizzagate” hoax, that Hillary Clinton and Democratic operatives were running a child sex ring from a pizzeria in Washington, D.C.'
'sales of the fluoride-free toothpaste he promotes might decline if he recants his bogus claim that fluoridated water causes cancer and stunts the brains of children. Demand for Infowars-branded gun components that can be purchased without a firearms permit might fall if he backs off his predictions of a looming civil war.'

It's not his kids. I guarantee. They'd go to jail in a heartbeat if daddy didn't protect them.
Don Jr you mean? And Jared Kushner, with Ivanka probably being implicated too? He does have another son. Even if they did need his protection, they can get a preemptive federal pardon. At the state level, though, there's not much he can really do, is there? The ideal would be to extract a preemptive federal pardon from Daddy and then flip on him for the state level charges.
'Daddy, you can't trust anyone but meeee....' Then he finds out it was her when she flips on him after the pardon. Smashes his smartphone and runs around the marshes of DC impotently tweeting on his broken phone. (Or, more realistically, rage-waddles... the anti-heaths of Mara-Lago.) Bannon, naturally, writes a sequel to his rap version of Coriolanus....

Granted, it seems unlikely that it was his kids (or Jared). But here's a Washington Post editorial making a good case for Javanka:

I don't mean this to be lurid or sensational, but as a serious measure of how truly messed up this family is, like in the way you'd read about historical figures and think "these people were broken inside": Don Jr., Eric, and Ivanka are all the offspring of Ivana. Donald Trump -- the man they grovel to daily -- literally raped their mother, screaming at her and ripping the hair out of her head as he did it, and they starve for his approval. These are not psychologically healthy people who hope to serve their country behind the scenes. There is genuine Flowers in the Attic type stuff in this family.
They came with white hands and left with red hands.

I really don't know how to summarise this. Maybe with "YOU are the problem"? Maybe that condition where idiots don't know they're idiots?

I feel like that's one of those accusations you need to put allegedly, not literally, in front of or provide a pretty credible source.

God damn! That was a harsh but great read.
And it does seem to ring true. Trump is the architect of his own destruction.
Screw you all, and have a nice day!
