I didn’t make any self referential call out to authority. I provided no authority whatsoever. I posited beliefs and spoke in such terms. I just stated how I see things. As I said, I believe the problems are emergent phenomena. Of course I could be wrong. It could be an organized effort as you say. It seems reasonable that it would become organized even if the origin isn’t.
Your assertion is not strong enough and your self referential call out to authority is suspect or at the least misplaced.
It is absolutely divide and conquer and it absolutely is an organized effort.
My assertions were posed as questions only to guide the light.
Anyone with eyes to see will know this. The problem is most of those eyes lack the courage and faith to speak.
