The whole thing even before this pardon was... I don't even know what to say about it anymore. I've been using the word "insane" and I think it's the only real fit here. Things are truly insane, these days. It's impossible to sort it all out because there are just breaks in the middle of the plot all over the place.
The political right today is all about big government and supports russia. huh?
Millions of people simultaneously making a huge deal out of the Epstein thing, while somehow also supporting the ONE guy, Trump, who was CLEARLY his best buddy, and who has said many things on record that should be concerning from a child protectionist perspective.
You've got millions of people who prefer a bunch of made-up childish nonsense about pizzagate and michele obama having a cock - these stories which are clearly invented and enjoy no supporting evidence - these are stories to rally behind. The actual demonstrable fact that Trump and Epstein were good friends, that trump has been to the island multiple times, that Trump has gone on record saying disturbing shit about objectifying young women, forcing himself on women, commenting on his buddy Jeff being a terrific guy who "likes em young" - this can all be dismissed, but there's a secret pizza restaurant that's trafficking children.
"in a cult" is being generous. These people's critical thinking system is entirely broken
My theory is dishonest people dont value honesty. In fact they value the dishonesty in their leaders. They want a leader more like themselves.
They will tell you everything that sounds patriotic or Christian for the reasons they support a candidate like Trump. However, those are just smokescreens because they cant say or come to terms with why they really support him.
Most of it is they want minorities to be punished or set back in manny different ways.
Or even as silly as gun laws that he wont do much for & guns they wont dare do anything with but larp with , hunt with, leave unsecured so they can get stolen & kill other citizens with for disputes.
They want a man who's actions & rhetoric are that of a slow petulant child, but just due to entitlement still be called "smart, business savvy, a Christian, a patriot"....etc.
Virtue signaling for children, law & order, America first, & the economy are disproven in their lack of ANY criticism when Trump shits all over these "values" daily.
Their actions 100% show that those things were NEVER high on their priority list.
-We are about to keep funding wars for Israel. So no America first support our troops logic there. 2 wars at once. Now you can say what you want about Palestine, but now just literally attacking Iran is nutz.
-Tarrifs that are completely random with no plan
-Epstein cover up & friendship
- Helping Jan 6ers even if they prey on children
-Supporting Russia in an invasion blaming Ukraine
-Banning books & speech
- Putting people like Bondi Patel Elon in charge of anything. Admitting they are horrible, but never holding Trump accountable for hand appointing ghouls.
-ATF still alive & well
-Prioritizing white refugees over brown & black
-Literal militarization of policing US cities
-Defunding liberal institutions & education
-Threatening to jail political opponents for non-crimes
.....The list with factual things they ignore that contradict their fake smokescreen values could go on forever. Its kind of by design though. Create so much chaos to where you jump from one thing to the next as the other stuff is carried out in the background.
