there are definitely pockets of mentally ill out there, especially on FB and the nextdoor app. Seriously deluded people.
One of my wife’s good friends went berserk in 2016 — “resist” marches all the time, pussy hats all the time...you name it. She hounded my wife mercilessly to join the “movement.” My wife told her many times “Knock it off. Not interested.” but she kept going and going. That was the end of that friendship.
Other kooky democrat friends at least have enough sense to not bring that crap up.
>> when my female friends post their pronouns, I can’t help but read SHEep/HERd
🤣😂🤣
Thanks for that.
Leftards are lunatics and/or vise versa. What boggles the mind is that Trump already was a previous President, the nation ran pretty well. If he was a dictator why isn’t he still in office ruling like a tyrant? Remember when Trump got elected that unhinged leftard lunatics went on riotous rampages like Portland and Seattle.
Leftism operations more like a cult than a political movement.
I could not resist posting: "Thank you for that important scientific insight. Where would we be without science?"
It’s insane they way they are all acting now.

Too bad they are your friends. They deserved to be mocked ruthlessly for their stupidity.
Sounds like your college friends are engaged in a circle je.... They all access the same people and information then consider themselves enlightened.
Back in 2005, after Bush got re-elected, I had a liberal Jewish friend was beside herself with grief. She said “he’s worse than Hitler!”. I calmly asked her if that meant she would prefer living in 1938 Germany versus 2005 USA. She had no reply.
I would have dumped these Friends years ago.
They have been brainwashed. It is REALLY bad, you’re correct. Absolutely no logic or reason to it except that people have been brainwashed looking at social media and watching television.
I live in a relatively safe conservative area...recently older gal from AZ moved into my senior complex.
Having long read about and seen/heard these twisted creatures on one tube or another, but never actually met/talked to one in person...unfortunately my luck ran out.
...and I am truly amazed at the sheer ignorance/brain-fornicated logic I witnessed.
...particularly from someone who's been on this earth longer than I have.
This mentally-challenged Kool-Aid drinker, who will stop you in mid-sentence before allowing herself to be educated with/by truth, makes my 95 y/o mom with dementia sound like a Rhode Scholar.
In the past couple of years I’ve become fascinated with the use of language on social media. It’s amazing how orchestrated it is…on both sides of the aisle.
Project 2025 or Project ‘25 has exploded over the past two or three weeks. After the debate and SCOTUS rulings it’s gotten even worse. That the use of the words around it are downright scary.
I’ve notice the use of “Neocon” has started to take off again on the Ukrainian/Russia sites. It’s like someone discovered it last week and they are flexing it.
Language on social media is interesting in terms of its valence. Instead of “rain” we get “deluge.” Instead of “concerning”, it is “catastrophic” or “existential threat.” Of course on the Hannity threads it’s always, “bombshell”.
High valence language generates an emotional response. That response will result in clicks to go read the hyperbolic articles. Once you “see it” it becomes akin to fingernails on a blackboard.
There are actually people who measure this stuff in an attempt to predict future trends/ directions in events. The best example of this was the noted use of “bitcoin” in 2010. It started to show up and within certain cohorts it took off. This was long before it became common. Those researchers were saying to buy it. I wish I had at the time.
It’s only going to get worse. But if you inoculate yourself by understanding the “high energy” words are meant to drive you to an action, it will be easier to keep an even keel.
But, trying to explain this to people who get their news from either TickTock on one side, or InfoWars on the other is often a lost cause.
I love that. I may even jokingly use those. 😂
It’s a spiritual battle for hearts.
Trump ain’t Jesus but his heart inclines to the right.
Those that lean left have a tendency for delusion and evil, lying and violence.
Those inclined to the right have a leaning toward the good and peace and just want happiness and freedom from persecution to pursue it.
They should listen to Trump instead of mindlessly and heartlessly believing what they hear about him.
I don’t know what else to add….but I know others do.
Their new claim is that Trump will be different this time because of the immunity ruling.
But a President planning to commit crimes can just plan to pardon himself. So what’s the difference? [silence]
“”when my female friends post their pronouns””
Most of these “pronoun people,” if they were really honest, would post the pronouns Me, Myself & I.
The Democrat Party began as a party of slave owners.
Democrat support for slavery helped bring about the Civil War.
Post CW, Democrats resisted Reconstruction.
Post Reconstruction, Democrats controlled Southern State and local government. Democrats’ Jim Crow laws used government to enforce apartheid and treated blacks as a population to be “controlled”.
Democrats have NEVER been for freedom. They see themselves as a class of masters. During the Roosevelt years the Democrats courted the votes of blacks via national socialism, a new form of slavery. Look at every Democrat policy: they always support using government to impose their will on an unfree populace. Accusing Trump of fascism is the standard Dem tactic of projecting that they do onto others.
The leftist podcaster interviewing him was furious ....
"Who the f--- is this?" an angered Miller exclaimed. "Out your sources, Ezra!"
......
"You have a calm voice, but you're skyrocketing my f---ing blood pressure right now," Miller said. "Ezra, I'm just, like, so f---ing mad."
You need better friends.
