In a recent CNN interview, former Secretary of State and Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton called for "formal deprogramming" of what she terms as the "MAGA cult." Formal? Did she mean government-sponsored deprogramming?
This is not the first time the left is calling for deprogramming of the right.
In 2021, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., proposed using taxpayer funds to deprogram white supremacists, a code name for conservatives and MAGA Republicans.
The list of others calling for deprogramming also includes Katie Couric, former CBS News and NBC "Today" host, who told Bill Maher in 2021: "And the question is, how are we going to really almost deprogram these people who have signed up for the cult of Trump."
Why such a call for deprogramming?
After the thorough demonization of Donald Trump, the left has been totally dismayed that his supporters still stand behind him with unwavering conviction.
The only option left for the left is to demonize all conservatives and MAGA Republicans as extremists, as white supremacists, or as threats to "our democracy" - in other words, enemies of the state.
Still vivid in everyone's minds are the inflammatory words from President Joe Biden’s speech in Philadelphia in September 2022, condemning Republicans with words like "extremists" and "threatens the very republic" with the satanic dark bloody red background behind him as he spoke, flanked by two Marines.
A year later, as the 2024 election draws closer, Newsweek reported this week that the FBI has "quietly created a new category of extremists that it seeks to track and counter: Donald Trump's army of MAGA followers."
The left means serious business. This is how the "enemies of the state" should be dealt with: deprogram and suppression. And this is exactly what happened in China...

They can not put us in camps until they have our rifles and pistols. That is the reason they want them. It is really that simple.
The ONLY deprogramming possible of a liberal is a full frontal lobotomy.
Where in the 27 minute video should I start noticing?
Any other hints? ;-)
“No wonder Bill goes out cattin’ around, imagine waking up next to that. Yeeks! Yikes! Yuck!”
We impeached Bill Clinton for lying under oath and it was an impeachable offense. Republicans controlled the Senate. It would have been grand if the Senate Leader stood up and said, “He lied under oath about screwing around, it is an impeachable offense. However, look at that bitch he is married to. I will not allow this legitimate impeachment to go forward. This impeachment trial is over. Drinks in one hour in the Senate private chambers, Bill Clinton is welcome.”
Killery’s comments are not a joke.

. and the fact that media put it on national TV pretty much makes the intent / threat official .
“A year later, as the 2024 election draws closer, Newsweek reported this week that the FBI has “quietly created a new category of extremists that it seeks to track and counter: Donald Trump’s army of MAGA followers.”
I guess I am on the list but I consider myself a believer in The Constitution as written. That is probably worse than also being a MAGA man.
The Huge difference is, we have 400+ million guns in private hands, China had virtually zero.
I have no idea.
People are fools if they do not believe that their mild mannered Democrat friends and relatives would calmly assent to conservatives being hauled off to “reeducation camps. They would.
“Tsk tsk, they obviously deserved it or the government wouldn’t have done it” their thoughts would go. I GUARANTEE that is exactly what my brother in law would say if I were dragged off.
Sounds like your brother in law is a real piece of work.

Every answer was a deliberate lie.
The really alarming thing is that he is quite likely representative of the average Democrat/leftist. They will claim they don't believe you should be persecuted or hauled off. But if/when it happens they won't give it a second thought. They will turn you in to the thought police in a heartbeat.
I don’t disagree. The left is hateful, delusional, and can justify anything to themselves if it fits with their selfish and dysfunctional world view. They love to call people ‘Nazis’, but they are oblivious to the fact that they are the real Nazis.
All the while they truly believe they are thoughtful and caring people. They are quite certain of it.
Like all cult members..
Look up “The 10 stages of genocide” by Dr. Gregory Stanton; we are in various shadings of stages IV, V, and VI.
“The vast majority here has already been programmed.”
Look at our schools today. They are conditioning a generation to believe in things that are contrary to facts.
Looked him up. Good points, thanks for the reference.
