Politics & Governance

In this period of national distress and personal despair, when we have lost faith in ourselves and in each other, when our democracy is flailing and our government and corrupt politicians have failed us, we expect messianic deliverance. Accordingly, we believe that there is one superhuman out there who has the power to save us – our wish-fulfillment messiah. We tend to adore and glorify individuals who give all of themselves to a common cause.
