Worse here. 😢 It is going to be scary to see trick-or-treaters sweating out in those fuzzy costumes and hoods.

Illustration: cartoon of a log cabin with smoke coming from the chimney and a woman’s face peering out the curtained front window. There is a pine tree out front and a forest behind in the distance. The field in front of the cabin has 5 dirt lines with armed men popping out from the ground at those lines at various stages. The first just shows a cowboy hat visible above the dirt. The next has a head emerged with a helmet and chin strap. The next has a sun hat-wearing man holding a rifle on a shoulder strap emerging up to his elbow. The fourth is a man with a rifle strapped to his back both arms fully emerged and one leg lifted up to climb out. He has a narrow white beard and a civil war era style military cap. The last is a fully emerged running man with narrow brown beard wearing camo holding his rifle at the ready.
Text: [Lesson] 6. Be wary of paramilitaries.
When the men with the guns who have always claimed to be against the system start wearing uniforms and marching with torches and pictures of a leader, the end is nigh. When the pro-leader paramilitary and the unofficial police and military intermingle, the end has come.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:6m4x5czfmhcgk7kkj742ra5a/bafkreiat7gcdmleqdwjmurqu57nxj7r2ksudg2deosinwmomm5u54tkiiu)
