The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize.

One is NEVER going to "set NPR straight" on "false climate narratives"... nor anything else.

Those people are committed Party members, and they stick to The Party line.
