Candidate A likes to play

cavorting in places that he shouldn’t

saying things that normal people wouldn’t

Candidate B is the obvious answer

even though he does exactly the same

But we all know is that the other side is the enemy

The planet of the humans is a condemnation

of the green movement

or a tract for a slow down of the economy

depending on who you are listening to at the moment

But all we know better than to check and see

…for ourselves

One billionaire likes to play doctor

with a vaccine that may well never come

and if it does, it will only help 20% percent of the gullible

but that is enough to anoint him as savior

We all know that a celebrity is all we really need

Another man makes millions selling a conspiracy

that he discovered in the realms of his imagination

but trust us, this information is very valuable

…for him

But we all know that the most sensational news is the most credible

They may have told lies their entire lives

but if their words fit our political purpose

we can be sure that they are now telling the truth

we can see it there in their smiling eyes

We all know that all we need to do is believe

We all know that the other side needs to be censored, how else can things be the way they ought to be?

We all know that some people will need to lose their freedom for the safety of us all, how else can we all be free?

On the other hand, we could open our eyes and see the real enemy
