"I think our society is run by insane people for insane objectives" John Lennon, 6 June 1968.

"I think our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think that’s what I sussed when I was sixteen and twelve, way down the line, but I expressed it differently all through my life. It’s the same thing I’m expressing all the time. But now I can put it into that sentence that I think we’re being run by maniacs for maniacal ends. If anybody can put on paper what our government and the American government etc and the Russian, Chinese, what they are actually trying to do, and what they think they’re doing, I’d be very pleased to know what they think they are doing. I think they’re all insane. But I’m liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That’s what’s insane about it."

And that he changed his mind about a lot of things he said. He was never afraid to re-evaluate and change his mind

YMMV but I find most Democrats are sane. And I’ll never be a fan of ‘both sides are the same.’
