Some Sunday Wisdom...

“Facts” do not cease to exist simply because they are ignored, refuted, corrupted, or "certain" people try to change the narrative. Like the fella once said, "It is what it is, and it's gonna be what it's gonna be...so you'd better get used to it!"

Maybe so, but always remember too, that "The ignorant are always ignorant of the depth of their ignorance.” LOL

...until it's too late of course. And even then, there are still some ignoramuses, so dense, that they still wonder what happened and why it happened! (new proverb) LOL
