    The French had cohesion at the time of the revolution, now it’s divided. Each side has a puppet boogeyman, for the right it’s CNN, for the left it’s Fox News. Kill the boogeymen, then it’ll start crumbling down. With the puppets, you stop paying attention to what the other hand is doing and focus on the news agencies. Without the puppets, we eventually realize to get mad enough.
