Confirmation confirms the stakes are high

Dear Editor,
Strange isn’t it, how sometimes things change dramatically but go unnoticed for the longest time?  
Brett is given a seat on the Supreme Court, nominated by an unpopular President who won his position with a less than a majority of the popular vote, confirmed by a two vote margin  in a  Senate which has perversely demonstrated  an unwillingness to address repeated attacks on our existing social order.  
These are signs we may have already submitted to subjugation by a group whose primary ideologies are racial and gender domination, economic hegemony, patriarchy and absolute control of the American social order.  
We are not in a high stakes game, but rather a high stakes contest — the outcome of which will determine whether we will we continue as we have or change radically. What is on offer to us is to cast off “Rule of Law” to be replaced by “Rule of Oligarch.” Our electorate has been kidnapped by Roger Aisles ropaganda machine, therefore can offer no resistance. In defense, I must point out that this is not “fake news.”
