You could tell yourself all these fellow inmates were the crazy ones, all those nutjobs raving half the night, even the caretakers with their whacky conspiracy theories, they were the mental defectives, they were the stark raving mad.  Not you.  No, not you.<\/p>\n<p>The world is a slippery place, a quicksilver concept of shifting realities, one day this the next day that.  Some of us put our faith in religion, some in science, some just go with some kind of viral flow that seeps across the internet like a brain eating plague.  People believe what they want to believe these days.  Virtual reality is perfect for the folks who feel beleaguered by the old reality.  Dreary jobs, dead end careers, bad marriages, deferred dreams, kids who didn\u2019t turn out well, who knows?  The world wasn\u2019t what they\u2019d hoped for, wasn\u2019t what their leaders told them it would be, wasn\u2019t fun, wasn\u2019t easy, wasn\u2019t much of anything the ads promised.  All lies, all broken promises, all just bullshit.  <\/p>\n<p>The government, the corporations, the politicians, even the movie actors, phony phony phony.  Who ya gonna call?  Who ya gonna trust?  Who ya gonna believe anymore?  Somebody\u2019s to blame, right?  Somebody must be winning while you\u2019re losing, right?  Somebody\u2019s got the power, the money, the secrets.  The game is rigged, you know that at least.  Maybe the Masons, maybe those Rosicrucions, maybe the Jews, maybe Hollywood, maybe the welfare queens, maybe the immigrants, maybe the Democrats, maybe the high tech CEO\u2019s, maybe, just maybe, all of them.  There\u2019s a conspiracy going on.  To keep you down, to keep you pacified, to keep you from finding out what is really what.  Q knows.  Q anon has the news.  The President, that king of conspiracy theorists, tells you they\u2019re good Americans.  But he doesn\u2019t, wink wink, nod nod, know very much about them. <\/p>\n<p>Suppose one fine morning you wake up and discover the insane have taken over the asylum.  Find out YOU were the enemy.  And all along you thought you were the sane one.  Maybe, you think, there actually was a conspiracy.  The loonies were planning how to do this all along.  One state senator at a time.  One Representative.  A Governor here, a Supreme Court judge there.  The President himself.  One fine morning you wake up and everything has changed.  Everything.  And you might find yourself asking who really is the insane one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Suppose you woke up one fine morning and discovered the place where you live was actually an insane asylum.
