It's a shame. I know so many intelligent, rational, sensible people who have bought this farce hook, line, and sinker. Like, really smart people. Fear makes people act irrationally and the propaganda has worked.
Some of the smartest people I've met have absolutely NO common sense, ability to think rationally or think with their emotions. I've found in life there are "book smart" people and "street smart" people. Those who have a balanced combination of both tend to excel in life.
