      I wouldn’t call that the sound of desperation. Sounds more like business as usual to me.

          It’s more than just self perception. They are INSISTING they are the heroes of the human story. The fascists are intent on eradicating all that don’t comform to their racist patriarchal/misogynistic/homophobic/transphobic nightmare vision for the future and rewriting the history books to reflect their ”superior” and ”moral” right to inherit the Earth.

          Most everyone is the hero of their own story and not as criminals. What you say is actually pretty meaningless.

          If people could actually see/know objective truth things would be a lot easier.

      Either the sound of desperation or power. If they can kill this criminal case through impeachment then it’s an exercise in power.
