I see no panic. I see no fear. I see curiosity, concern, and prudence. And anger at a dictatorial government. But we already had that before Obola. I do not see the need for articles telling all of us not to panic.
The articles telling us not to panic serve the purpose of reinforcing their contention that we are all panicking.
It's like making somebody angry by repeatedly telling them they don't need to be so angry.
Are you kidding? There have been multiple threads & responses over the past couple weeks here on FR from people 100% convinced the U.S. will be wiped out, chastising those who refuse to panic, saying elections will be cancelled in November & much more.
