A friend of mine asked this on one of his social media pages. This was one of the responses he got:
It made me equal parts sad and infuriated to read that. This person has absorbed so much propaganda, accepted tons of misinformation as fact, and fallen for just about every moral panic currently out there.
I love the concern of debt, but trump is the biggest driver of the recent debt spike haha
And the previous one, too. Holy shit did he press the pedal last time. I can only imagine what he's doing now.
I'm surprised he didn't say the immigrants were eating the dogs. What a lunatic.
Like any cult, it'll collapse after the cult leader dies.
But they'll just be reprogrammed by another cult leader. There will be Trump copycats for the rest of our lives now. So another cult leader will arise. And conservatives will be waiting with open mouths for that person to shit into.
Good news on that front. Have you been following the news about the Murdoch empire and the irrevocable trust Rupert set up?
Essentially, the last ruling--which will surely be appealed--is that the irrevocable trust is irrevocable. That means that Rupert's empire, when he dies, will be controlled jointly by all of his children that are part of the trust. And the children that are part of the trust skew strongly left/center left, except for the son that Rupert was trying to transfer all of the control to. So when Murdoch dies, it's highly likely that Fox will very quickly change course because it's no longer going to be controlled by someone that's as conservative as a Nazi.
I was actually in Springfield a couple summers ago and a takeover is laughable. There are issues of driving without license/insurance and those should be addressed (if they haven't already been).
I have family living also not far from springfield and have heard none of the other nonsense. Some institutions are stressed because of an influx of people, but they're also working jobs that needed workers; the origin of those workers would have zero bearing on that.
Not surprised that the reality is stupidly overblown and people claim to believe every word of it.
