positions of power and have no sense of moral behavior beyond their own narrow sliver of twisted ideology. I find it truly frightening because I think a goodly number of people just get immersed in the cultural stew of the time and cease to question as long as some element of it all seems to address their own grievances in some way. Also we have a generation which has been raised amid this claptrap. I fear it will take a while for reason to prevail.
