“The rats that were trapped alone in cages opted to get high as much as possible, but the rats with interesting lives (community, space, toys) tried the drugged water once or twice, and then stayed away from it.

“many of us have been convinced that we carry the darkness within us, in our selfish genes. “It is simply human nature,” we’re told, “to rape and kill and enslave—and anyone who thinks otherwise is a foolish romantic.” This messaging not only offends our decency and dignity, it insults our intelligence.

“A statement that the investigation did not establish particular facts does not mean there was no evidence of those facts.”
Robert S. Mueller III, The Mueller Report

“The investigation also identified numerous links between the Russian government and the Trump Campaign.”
The Washington Post, The Mueller Report
