The only people who can stop what is happening in America sit on their hands in the Senate, in full partnership with a Russian pedophile. Until people start focusing on our enemies within that godawful legislative body, nothing changes. It is the most powerful branch of the government, and it willfully, and at great profit to themselves, led us into hell.
People didn't like automobiles, but automobiles, they became the future.
People didn't like planes, but planes became the future.
There were people who didn't like something as simple as seat belts, but even seat belts became the future.
People didn't like computers, but computers became the future.
Likewise, there were people who didn't like the Internet, but as you read this, clearly the internet became the future.
Additionally, there were even people who didn't like smartphones, but smartphone also became the future.
There are still people who hate all these things, even today, but they are part of daily life, and until something better comes along, they will remain so. Just as people didn't like A.I., it too became the future, and it too is still here, part of our daily lives, used by many, and until something better comes along, it will remain.
