You are being distracted with parties and teams while the distribution of power is not what it seems. But let’s fight about teams; *wear their colours proudly, spout their talking points,* unverified, loudly Meanwhile, positions are bought and positions are sold - But don’t worry about that, you don’t want to be told the details, they’re complicated and boring. Instead, **check out the new player everyone is adoring.** *Isn't he cute, isn't he smart?* Show support with your wallet, not with your heart. Unseen, decisions are made preserving power and wealth, ignoring bold new ideas and community health - but really, you should know, **my team is better than yours,** *just look at them go: look at them argue, look at them pose* - wait, don’t look at those things going on in the shadows Come on, join our team - I mean, join the fans. *We’re all in this together, we’re all part of the plans* - as long you’re not different; but hey, be one of us, don’t worry about them; don’t think about incredible minds discarded to maintain status quo for corrupt family lines. Our team has brand new merch! Check it out at these ridiculous prices; get your uniform, be part of our herd, sync your values and devices, *swear allegiance to our team,* it’s more than just words. *It's all fair game when it's parties and teams.* You want us to win and follow our dreams.**They need your support, they need you to cheer,** and when we need them, they’ll…. pretend not to hear...

Parties and Teams
You are being distracted with parties and teams while the distribution of power is not what it seems. But let’s fight about teams; *wear their colours proudly, spout their talking points,* unverified, loudly Meanwhile, positions are bought and positions are sold - But don’t worry about that, you don’t want to be told the details, they’re complicated and boring. Instead, **check out the new player everyone is adoring.** *Isn't he cute, isn't he smart?* Show support with your wallet, not with your heart.
