Thinking about this article on the theories of how Edgar Allen Poe died, particularly about "cooping" a corrupt voting practice at his time in American History in which people were nabbed off the streets, put in a room against their will, drugged or fed alcohol to make them compliant, then dressed in disguises/clothes and forced to vote multiple times illegally as different people

I think of the phrase "This is not who we are".

Yes it is. NOT all of us but, yes it is how corrupt some of our fellow citizens have been and are.
