I suppose I'm sometimes overwhelmed by wishful thinking. It's not a comfortable feeling to be politically homeless and when somebody appears in the media saying things that give me hope and inspiration it takes a lot of willpower not to get carried away by it. Those people do just that, and in fact I'd add Nigel Farage to that list. There's also an element of absurdism that allows me to see the funny side of life. Candace Owens in particular fills that role. With everything else going on in the world does it really matter if Brigitte Macron is male or female? No, but it lets me switch off from the more horrible items pressing down on me. I know this is illusion and I can't dispute the suspicious elements behind those people.
