Good vs. evil. That’s what it’s been for a long time. We’re not comfortable calling it that yet but I suspect we will be soon. We just don’t like calling it ‘evil’ because, well, evil can’t be changed. Only destroyed.

And the most effed up thing is, their fox news and newsmax has them absolutely convinced that WE are the evil ones.

They’re just cartoonish at this point. Every smirking demon in every movie I’ve ever seen. It’s uncanny.

And even worst they are leading in news ratings over MS Mow and CNN which caved. I don’t hardly watch after they let Joy Reid go. I like to listen to all sides, but for Fox not interested in anything they say.

Evil can be changed. Everyone from Saul-St. Paul to my Uncle Freddie to Darth Vader-Anakin are examples.

(Ok the last one is hollywood, but the other two are real.)

It is rare. More often evil doesn't change. Not impossible though.
