No right is more precious in a free country than that of having a voice in the election of those who make the laws under which, as good citizens, we must live. Other rights, even the most basic, are illusory if the right to vote is undermined.

the laws of Faerie

This election cycle has been psy-ops gone mad.

Those who are not our friends are using a type of stuff called glamour. This is a well-known magick from the land of Faerie. It clouds visions and makes you chase the impossible. It leads you around in circles. You're almost there - the beautiful land full of beautiful people and - wham! - suddenly you are old and cold and bereft and alone. And the beauty is lost, lost - gone.

And you never get over it.

This election has all the hallmarks of faerie glamour. People are deliberately confusing the signals. You can't necessarily trust the beautiful people - nor can you assume the ugly ones are really evil.

Someone is shaking glamour everywhere and clouding everyone's vision.

The laws of Faerie say: before anything else, you must know what matters most. This is actually the secret, the key.

The next step: You must look inside of yourself, not at the world around you, for what you know to be true. This is what you will be tested on.

You must stand tall and straight and unapologetic while the faeries do everything in their power to confuse you and make you let go.

If you hold on fast to what matters most, at the end of the day, the faeries will sooner or later give up - and then, only then, do you recognize that, although they are beautiful, they are not your friend.

So don't fall for the glamour. It isn't real. Know what is true. Know what matters most.
