   One or two assassins felled JFK, and less than 5 years later, his   
   brother suffered the same tragic fate.   
   Assassinations sometimes change the course of history, yes, and   
   sometimes they simply don't change anything significantly except   
   possibly more police state surveillance.   
   That was one of the notable changes. Yet, the 1960s were already   
   in a terrible social, ideological and even physical roil unlike   
   anything this nation had seen since the 1930s, and before that,   
   the civil war era.   
   But the assassinations felled major historical figures. Garfield   
   and McKinley's assassinations simply came at a time of changes   
   in societal evolution, the building of America's infrastructure   
   and the pace of technological progress. Overall, the leaders of   
   those pressing times were swept along with the rest of humanity   
   in the rapid progress technology promulgated to the present time   
   of high speed global communications.   
   The huge impact on our brains and behaviors have been unprecedented   
   and the impact is still being analyzed by social scientists and   
   psychologists, historians.   
   So, the incident of a college-oriented young radical ideologue's   
   murder is not particularly a stand-out on the timeline, but a   
   manifestation of growing fanaticism - a trippy dangerous milieu   
   that was already in progress when Kirk went down.   
   The fate of our democracy and preservation of our precious rights   
   are clearly tugging at us beyond personalities - celebs, exciters,   
   leaders...they all come and go, but it's the saving of our unique   
   form of governance that's the most important.   
   Donald or Vance or anyone in public exposure face mounting dangers   
   to their well-being promoting extremism, encouraging racism and   
   radical nationalism, with plenty of pious obsessions underlining   
   much of the movement Donald has created from a big fat lie.   
   The rigged election. It was not rigged nor did he win by a   
   landslide then nor last year, either. Lies galore, meant to con   
   his audience into accepting his false narratives as truth, which   
   it clearly appears to have been fruitful. MAGAnites express great   
   suspicion about anything that contradicts Donald's line of bull.   
   And mostly reject it, vehemently defend and even glorify him.   
   Denial of alternate versions of reality Donald rejects becomes a   
   common reaction among his cult. His crude and childish public   
   behaviors have no negative effect on his adorers.   
   Conspiracies fill the blanks for many in the MAGA mindset. Belief   
   subbing for truth is predominant in Don and his cohorts' agenda to   
   use paranoia, biases, ignorance and stupidity to fuel that dark   
   agenda. And it all is designed to satisfy a sick authoritarian   
   elitist's lust for power and wealth, bathed in self-exaltation.
