      Welcome back!

      “Funny” story, there’s been some flux in a gravitational waves or some yada yada, and next thing you know, surprise, we’ve been teleported to an alternative universe where politics SUCKS ASS.

      That’s how.

        Yeah, this theory can be funny, but it completely ignores how the Kochs and John Birch Society, among many others, have been trying to “take back” the country since… well civil war at least if you include the KKK and south. Though more since FDR. They have been planning, shifting the Overton window, and trying every little thing they can. They even freaked out about Timothy McVeigh a bit, thinking he set them back by exposing the general secretly violent right wing by going so public, iirc.

          I never said when was the flux. (Jury’s out on that, whether it had something to do with dinosaurs dying.)
