Maybe. Maybe not. These people truly are unbalanced.
Back in early 2016 I went to a dinner party given by a liberal acquaintance of mine. All was going well until somebody at the table mentioned Trump (I forget what the context was).
Our liberal host immediately went berserk. She jumped up from her chair and started pacing the room. All the time she was waving her hands and screaming. It was like something out of ‘The Exorcist’.
I thought I might have to pepper spray her. But that probably would have ruined dessert. 🍰
Are there crazy people out there? Yes.
And if someone else is recording it, might be real. Of course if you are AOC pretend crying beside a fenced off parking lot, probably not.
If they are recording it, very likely not.
I tend to look at the eyes and see if they are red, swollen and bloodshot. 90% of the time. No. Cry stick.
It is a very cynical money grab.
