    That is the most disheartening part. I didn’t build American Hegemony, nor was I victim of it, but damn it if there wasn’t a chance we could have collectively come to our senses and practiced what our constitution preaches. There was a path forward to that “Star Trek” future in my eyes.

        One of my favorite parts of the entire movie was how it was literally a propaganda film with the advertisement for the televised execution.

        I will say, your post should have had:

      There still is and there will be

      Remember that star trek too had WWIII around this time, before they got to their senses

      Then again, its a show, of course, but it’s a good example to aspire to
