-“These days, projecting blame is almost an art form.”

To hear and to see
Even an obvious lie
Again
And again and again
May be to say it,
Almost by reflex
Then to defend it
Because we’ve said it
And at last to embrace it
Because we’ve defended it
And because we cannot admit
That we’ve embraced and defended
An obvious lie.

I felt physical joy like a hot ball in my chest when they got out 😭
