These are called “wedge issues”.
The magicians are using misdirection and distraction to steal from us.
War is another great example.
A tale as old as time unfortunately and people fall for it still. I call such people “wedgies”.
The problem is not just the magicians though. The bigger problem is the rest of us who keep falling for the same tricks. At some point, we will have to accept that humans are just plain stupid and most actually want to be controlled.
