2022/2024: This is what's out there, and there's more on the way, running for office.

[Wild Bill Kelsoe]

In less than two minutes, this woman -- who has absolutely NO DOUBT about what she's saying -- encapsulates what it's like listening to (and reading) these people. There is absolutely NOTHING that can be said or demonstrated that will change her mind. She knows "The Truth", because she does "research", and it's reinforced by her "news sources". Trying to reason with her would be pointless.

Seven years ago, this would have been great entertainment. Today, it's an example of what has happened to this country.

That's funny coming from the same folks who think getting vaccinated will stop the spread of covid...lol

 

[Harpy Eagle]

You don't make any points.

You simply troll because you need attention.

You feel that way and yet you give it to him, what does that make you?

 

[Harpy Eagle]

The woman in your video is not mainstream republican.

and its irresponsible of you to imply that she is

What do you base that claim on?

 

[Dogmaphobe]

You feel that way and yet you give it to him, what does that make you?

an enabler.


obviously.

 

[Mac-7]

This is Mac1958 s idea of responsible debate that leads to a meeting of the minds.

in his world we should jus sit around and make silly or insulting faces at each other

 

[Mac-7]

What do you base that claim on?

I are a mainstream republican as are many people I know

 

[Harpy Eagle]

I are a mainstream republican as are many people I know

Is what this person said any more off the wall that what many of the mainstream republicans on this forum post?

He is a polemicist while continually denying that he is.

Here, he has chosen a nut job quite deliberately in order to tar the entirety of the right, while simultaneously claiming that he is just opposing extremism. This is just an obvious ruse, however, since he embraces all the most extreme posters we have here.

I just know Mac is gonna bust out a crazy twitter post from a lib.................at any moment.

Or Dems?

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Or Dems?

Yes. But the topic of the thread is about Repubs and the comment I replied to was specifically about Repubs

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Ahhh...I see.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Ahhh...I see.

But yes, both sides have their crazies, the only real debate is how mainstream the crazies are.

Is what the lady in the OP said any crazier than the claim the entire world faked a pandemic for the singular reason to get Trump out of office?

Nope.

Whether it's people like this, a screaming Antifa loon on the streets of Portland, or a wild-eyed jihadi on the streets of Damascus.

The problem is, these people are gaining profoundly more political power now that they're out of the fringe.

When you say "these people", do you honestly believe this is typical of a Trump voter/supporter?

What I see here is someone who is mentally ill, or someone who has no ability to reason. This is so out there, and no one that I know that is a Republican and or a Trump supporter believes lunacy such as this.

 

[Maxnovax]

Which is why she makes a living on her back.

Kinda like our Vice President

Faking a pandemic and seizing upon an opportunity presented by the pandemic are two different matters, though. While it WOULD be crazy to claim the pandemic was faked, it is entirely sane to questions the policies enacted as a result of it, the way so much verbiage was generated to blame Trump for it, the way a great economy was tanked quite intentionally and all sorts of other responses that acted in the political arena.

Heck, if we are talking about sanity vs. insanity, I'd say that those who absolutely REFUSE to question the official establishment narrative are the nutty ones, especially inasmuch as this narrative has been ever-changing to the point that the inconsistencies are so severe that it's like that kid pointing out the emperor is Naked to question it.

It's not about specifically what is believed.

It's about how trying to talk them out of an absurd notion is pointless when they exist in their own reality.

That really didn't answer my question.
