“A fanatic is one who can’t change his mind and won’t change the subject.”

Never heard that before but it perfectly describes a FORMER friend who’s a liberal. (We kicked him to the curb.) We could be discussing the weather and he’d start dissing Republicans for no reason. He and DH would ride bikes together. For no reason, he’d start an anti-GOP diatribe, ruining a nice day outdoors.

The reason? Once a Republican fired his father or grandfather. It still sticks in his craw and he canNOT let it go. As if a Democrat never fired a person ... ever.

The only thing harder than admitting you are wrong is admitting you have been fooled. This will cause a lot of mental illness. It has become increasingly clear to me that my liberal acquaintances are either fooled or evil.

I agree.

It’s one of the biggest unreported stories in America at the moment. It’s gotten so bad, I am sort of surprised when I am talking to someone who isn’t mentally ill in some way, especially if they are young.

Here’s a link to Tucker where he talks about their plans for us. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WevxmKMy2f8

Had something similar, had a Trump hat on and we were dining out and these two young guys came up to our table unprovoked and started becoming belligerent about Trump and the GOP so I stopped eat, put down my napkin, reached for my CCW 45 Colt and laid it on the table...They did an about face and scrammed...Never said a word.

I did something similar to a former coworker.
He would twist your words and actions and then spread rumors that someone said this or that and cause all sorts of problems.
After he’d done that to me, I waited until I was training a few new employees to bust his a$$.
He walks up, with that smirk and started to speak.
Before he could get the words out, I said loudly, “I warned you, ask to touch my junk again and I’m going to HR.
I was off of his list of “targets” and my trainees all thought he was a perv, which he is.

i dont believe this for one second...

Remember, half of the population is below average IQ.

A family memeber loves to rant about corporate greed but never wants to hear about how greedy he is at the personal level.

Me too. Too many on our side think they can just be nice and we’ll win them over.

If you aren’t legally armed, you need to be. And don’t forget about training, either. I don’t just mean trading with a weapon, you must train with your mind, as well.
Check out the USCCA, they’ve been around a number of years, with experts on legal issues, and not only firearms training, but hand-to-hand training that is simple to understand.
There are three levels of coverage they cover, with legal representation.
Also a really great magazine with a sizable section written for women.
Check ‘em out

I admit to some bitterness because the very first thing I took to the dry cleaners in my adult life (so, in the days of horse-drawn carriages) was ruined. It was a minidress with leather and rivet trim. I found it at a thrift store. I thought “I should get this cleaned before I wear it” (because the label said “dry clean only) so I did and haha it had to go into the trash. But I’m sure all the people who make six figures or more are in support of your hypothesis so I’ll have to yield since I sure don’t want to p1$$ them off. :D

“Same thing with the shots. It’s weird. People letting everyone know how they got their boosters or shots.”

Psychologists have been studying this sort of thing for generations.

What is happening is that these folks have nagging doubts that they may have made a mistake and those “crazy conspiracy nuts” might be right about the dangers of the vaccines.

Vocalizing (bragging) about their shots is compensating—an attempt to drown out the little voice in their head that keeps whispering “Danger, Will Robinson. Danger.”

No mention of what set him off, such as a MAGA hot.

It’s a he said she said article. It’s on American Thinker + Kaslin.

Responsibility lies with our media’s incessant lies, the Democrats’ demented defamation and slander of President Trump and bestial denouncement of the Republican Party, the utter canceling of influencers who disagree with their odious party line, and the Democrat leadership’s illegal encouragement of anarchistic behavior towards any dissenters

Yes, the corrupt media can still influence these crazies.
