Yeah, my extremely respectability politics democrat parents have moved hard left over the past year. I imagine the effect is more pronounced in people with less firm worldviews.

this is escalating rapidly among decorumites as it's finally dawning on them that the SCOTUS and courts will not save us all, and Mueller isn't gonna do poo poo in time. Those were literally the last two "things can go back to normal" tent poles for the holdouts as they were surrounded by chuds baying for blood and a smoothbrained genocide leader boasting about raping people and mocking the disabled to cheers

Edit: Also that rig would throw the center of gravity of the drone way the gently caress off, and just LOL at the idea of figuring out a proper counterweight without either a shitload of trial-and-error or math well beyond what your average chud can perform.

Why does every Nazi oval office automatically have 3 thousand positive replies on every tweet. I've had (positive) interactions with actual twitter celebrities with more followers because their mentions don't get swamped like that even when they post "I love working at the abortion factory, aborting only conservative fetuses".

i think i've spent about as much time looking at this as i want to, but kinda noteworthy that the campaign really picked up right at the turn of the month. it started in may -- i guess to make it look somewhat not-totally-fake -- and then the moment july rolled around it went ballistic. so bogus. midterms etc. etc. etc.

so here's my theory. it is getting more developed.

this right-wing ad agency dude's hairdresser (probably) was spouting off about MAGA bullshit and was losing his friends. one day during a trim, they get the bright idea to have cocktail parties -- as gay men tend to do -- with other white gay male conservative pricks in manhattan. then they're sitting around and, over cocktails, come up with a plan to astroturf a campaign with this dude's ad agency involved and the hairdresser as the pretty face. they do all the SEO stuff and bot creation, then start blasting out emails to right-wing media timed for early july.

I don't know. When the GOP stuffed courts rule that the president is above the law and his pardon extends to himself and state charges. And he wins reelection after two years of either Democrat inaction or a failed blue wave against whatever wall street lib manages to survive the all out ratfuck civil war that the 2020 primary will be, a lot of brains are going to break. There is no going back.

We had a full-on civil war with half the country seceding, including naval battles and whole cities being burned to the ground, and we basically returned to normal after a few years except for the South being really bitter.
