Pretty much. Very grim.

I've stopped trying. I remember reading an article about friends and neighbors who drifted apart during the rise of Hitler. Someone was talking about how it pained them and horrified them to see close friends succumb to Hitler's appeal. Trump is no Hitler, but I can relate the feeling :-( The only way out is to win and wait to ride this out...and perhaps to read Victor Frankl :-/

let's start an new global arms race!! the new arms race started already ... they want to develop quantum computer first before their enemies do so that they can get into the enemy's defense system, hack their program and turn the enemy's nuclear warheads onto the enemy HQ and gov and hit the red button. Whoever develops the qc first will be able to wreak havoc in their enemy's banking system, electric grid, big companies, government systems, election, military systems, ... they will easily break the security system. countries are investing in the development because this is the new arms race.
