I appreciate your message. You're correct about people not seeing this message in the newspaper headlines---at least not directly. The message isn't fully expressed through words.The words dictate people's emotions. It tells the people who is the "enemy" and who they should fear. It is a catalyst, disrupting a dysfunctional order while placating the population's fears they manipulate for political propaganda. These agendas distort people's perception into voting against their interests by relying on propaganda to exploitsr their lack of political information and critical thinking. When people panic, they often relinquish independent thought and flock towards those who promise salvation. As Machiavelli stated, "Never attempt to win by force what can be won by deception."

Your message is positive, yet it subtly hints towards the rhetoric used by many politicians, attorneys, billionaires, megachurch pastors, and cult leaders. While all churches by definition are cults, not every cult is inherently malicious. But not everyone goes WACO.
