I can assure you that you are giving the general public far too much credit unfortunately.

Remember, the #1 search on google on Election Day was “did Joe Biden drop out”

Jesus fucking christ. I have not read that before, but it is the most believable thing I’ve seen all week.

I’ll look it up tomorrow. I am always curious, but I cannot handle having this fact confirmed to me right now, lol.

I'm going to bet that if I did one of those street interview things with the question: "Do you know what operation condor is? Do you know what the phoenix program is?" I'd get maybe 1 usonian out of 300 that would have even heard of them.
