Why does this sound like it was written by an AI?
Yes, plenty of fancy terms being thrown around, unity, democracy, trillions of jobs (for billions of people, what?) But honestly, if you look closer at it, then this just comes across as a mad cry for salvation.

Don't get me wrong, I agree with the spirit of this message. The American people, the world at large, needs to come together in body and mind to fight back against the tide of uncertainty that Covid has summoned. But how can we do that when it's not Covid that divides us, but rather that which it has exposed?

Autocratic forces all across the globe have used this pandemic to further their own agendas, either to raise unrest amongst their allies and destabilize their nations to better grasp hold of it, or to crack down on personal liberties which has nothing to do with Covid, but are just ways to subjugate their fellow citizens.

But most of all, it has revealed that many of us have no clue wtf we're even talking about. The human condition to trust itself over everything else, even its own loving family and loyal friends has allowed a spread of misinformation unlike anything ever seen before in the history of humanity. We can now more justly say than ever before: Who can you trust anymore?

As men and women sit behind TV sets and computer screens, discussing, debating, arguing, preaching and ranting all the same about what is what, who can you trust? Can you even trust yourself anymore?

What we need is unity, yes... But to get that, we need to reclaim trust. And there's dangerously little of that to go around anymore. Forget running out of oil, water or food, we've already run out of trust!

It's humanity's greatest crisis today. And honestly... I don't have any answers to give. The only thing I can tell you is to figure out who your real friends are. Who has given the most to you in your life? Is it your family? Is it your neighbor? Is it the preacher on the podium trying to steer you right as they saw fit, or the good samaritan who gave you a quarter expecting nothing in return except perhaps a smile?

Be careful who you listen to, be even more careful of the gifts you recieve. But if someone proves to you they are worth trust, then never let them go.

Full disclosure, I just used a list of overused words and phrases from politicians to make word salad. Unity, integrity, big numbers, our democracy, create jobs, dignity, together, our Constitution, so on. You know, when people speak for 20 minutes and say nothing.

this is literally just the same sentence being rephrased different times with mostly the same buzzwords, and that (sadly) represents the state of our politics for the past 5 years

that being said this is genius
