Deprograming MAGA

At the same time, Trump's company is being shut down for fraud. His charity was shut down for fraud. His university was shut down for fraud. His casinos went bankrupt, and he himself declared bankruptcy for the 6th time the same year "The Apprentice" started.

They think this is a good business man and really want him to run the country?

Maga loves advertising that it’s pig ignorant and proud of it.

+1. This type of thinking, along with her deplorable comment is one reason why she lost the election.

Folks, this type of rhetoric just makes MAGA dig in deeper.

Well, they dig in deeper to their own rhetoric and conspiracy theories which just proves her point.

Seriously, why do you care so much about MAGAs?

Because they attacked the Capitol on January 6? Because they’re a dangerous cancer on our society? Because we are right to be afraid of delusional, stupid people who will believe anything and who are armed to the teeth? Because Fox News and the right wing media have hijacked their brains for profit and refuse to do the right thing for our country?

Pick your reason, really. MAGA needs to be eliminated from this country. It’s as existential a threat to our way of life as the Brownshirts were in 1920s Germany. We have a choice - we can strangle the figurative baby Hitler before he walks. And we need to.

A Pennsylvania man has been arrested after allegedly killing his father, before displaying his decapitated head in a gruesome YouTube video while spouting right-wing conspiracy theories.

“The AP spoke with more than a dozen people whose lives were disrupted by conspiracy theories — either because they believed them or because a close loved one did.

Many spoke of the social isolation that comes from spending more and more time on conspiracy theory websites and message boards.

They talked about money lost to investment scams or products that claimed to reverse aging or cure COVID-19. They talked about a mounting sense of paranoia and distrust as they began to lose faith in their community and their fellow Americans.”

The sad thing is just how mainstream this is in the GOP and how much it drives their decisions, even people who present more or less normally. I guess because I know so many people like this from where I grew up, and some are family, that I can see the paths they took to get to the places they arrived and it’s very, very sad.

there is nothing to deprogram. Progress for progress sake, aka liberalism has reached its inevitable end by creating a faustian bargin in which tradition was erased for the sake of higher tech/gdp. Now you have listlessness, restlessness and collapsing social trust and family formation. Maga is just a symptom, not the cause.

And yet, the same people who hate those qualities in her will turn around and vote for a candidate who has even more disdain for them: the guy who says he loves the poorly educated, begs them to send him their last dollar (even though he’s allegedly a billionaire who doesn’t use his own money to pay his legal bills), tells them that even if they’re so sick they’re near death, it will be worth it to vote for him and then drop dead, and recently told a rally audience that only 2% of them could pass a cognitive test. Also the same guy who declined at the last minute to participate in a planned D-Day commemoration because his hair would have gotten wet, told the widow of a slain serviceman who had just died that her husband knew what he’d signed up for, called people who enlist in the armed forces suckers and losers, needed note cards to make expressions of sympathy to constituents, and once asked a political refugee who had just shared the story of her immediate family members’ slaughter where her family is now.

That’s a nice world salad that means nothing. Maybe it means something if you’ve spent too much time in a right wing stew of crazy, but it doesn’t mean anything to anyone else. Like when you all wore your “lions, not sheep” shirts and talked about how people who got the covid vaccines would become zombies. Or magnetic.

He also said he was Jesus. You're presenting a literal lunatic as though he's the average Trump voter.

Trump voters walk around calling themselves Jesus and playing hackisack with their parents heads, I guess, is what you take from this.

It's not mainstream in the GOP. For quite a while, polls showed that R voters were barely aware of the existence of qanon while Ds were hearing about it in the media

Q was coming from a rich eccentric pig farmer in the Philippines.
