    “You don’t need to invent an invisible shadow government to be mad at. You can just be mad at the actual government.”

      i think- i think the “invisible shadow government” conspiracies are a cope. if someone voted for the current government that is fucking things up (as the opposition said they would) then it might be hard to admit to having made the wrong choice whilst voting, especially if the current government claims to hold the same values as you “my wholesome christian government that said they’d help guys like me wouldn’t be the ones making my life harder! it must be the secret cabal!!!”

        An “invisible shadow government” is a crazy idea. Why would someone in charge of a black budget and it’s secret infrastructure accept democratic oversight?
