""Horseglue" is a screeching call for moral clarity, Anything short of courage against the rise of the New Authoritaria is complicity. It is important to focus on how integral the Messengers really are, and that some of them are the 1%, too. They are rich and they are happy without consequence, as a vast majority of us suffer in the shadows of the unknown."
