Dude that last picture was a huge red pill for me all on it's own when I first saw it years ago. I was just learning about secret orders and frats, like Knights Templar, Muslim Brootherhood and Skull and Bones etc.

This picture of those goons hanging out like bros and grinning smarmily in their comfortable retirement really soured my positive outlook on government and politicians as a whole. They're all friends playing a show and sone of us are stupid enough to buy it and substitute their fictional realities for our own. What a dog faced pony show.
