If this another piece by dear carien is not just mainly opinionated speculation, then it seems to be just  another piece in an ingratiation process: benefiting an entrenchment group(s) obsessive to eliminate any 'opposition', for their corrupt privileges, and so opposing ultimately any creative ideas; by smear, by derision, by manipulations, by media distotion, even, if necessary, by assassinations.. whatever it takes. Whether she or they are proud of their long history in this, who knows? Perhaps dear carien could explore and share some of her light, for us, on that...?
