Part III - A heaven made in hell
Even as he slid deep into madness in his jungle paradise, Jim Jones found support in high places in San Francisco

Jones was a full on progressive, social justice, collective salvation type.
When I think of demonic possession, I don’t think of the head spinning around crap. I think of Jones, Hitler, Stalin, Manson, and Alinski.
Wow, I had no idea
I can’t recall if Jimmy Carter ever attended the peoples temple but am sure Rosalyn did.
I remember them praising Jim Jones to high heaven. When I read that he would throw a Bible on the floor and stomp on it, I knew what he really was.

Rosalyn Carter tape found at Jonestown
1) It was much worse, much more evil, and much more premeditated than he suggests.
2) No one was "ensnared", San Fransicko progressives all had the same morals, ethics and agenda as Jones, they all eagerly made the standard deal with Satan.
3) San Franciscans got what they deserved and have degenerated consistently continuing through today.
All evil men are.
There's a contradiction in terms ...
Milk knew how dangerous Jones was, but did anything he could to get elected. There’s even a handwritten note from him telling Jones his name was “cut in stone” in support of the Temple

I remember it well, was working in the Fillmore when Jonestown went down, went through People’s Temple when they auctioned all their stuff off.
Jones’ last speech is today’s Democratic standard speech on race and immigration.
Jones didn’t just plant his roots in the Filmore; he also planted some on the east side of the bay in Lafayette, and south in Santa Cruz, in both cases in the Disciples of Christ churches, populated with lazy liberal looney school teachers and pro communist agitators.
Many in both towns still think Jones got a bad rap.
I understand that San Diego State University has a Jim Jones sycophant on the payroll.
bttt
Also, Jane Fonda supported him Jim Jones.
Our favorite fellow traveler critical race theorist Soledad O'Brien has done a story on them. I haven't seen it, but I would guess she doesn't go into too much details about the democrat connections.
If you guys haven’t seen Powers Boothe as Jim Jones in ‘Guyana Tragedy’ you really should. I highly recommend it. He was amazing and deserved that Emmy.
Thanks for posting this. It’s a very interesting article.
