7. It'll Never Work; The Brainwashing Is Too Deep
Wed Nov 24, 2021, 11:53 PM
Nov 2021

The other day, I saw a headline that read something like, "Anti-Vaxxer Who Caught COVID And Was Placed On Ventilator Loses Both Legs, Still Has No Regrets." If there was ever any doubt about how complete and unalterable the Trump brainwashing has been, there should be none anymore. I've never seen brainwashing like this. People are literally willing to put their love for Trump ahead of their own health, safety, and well-being. Usually this type of cult-like behavior is reserved to a small group of nuts who are particularly stupid and/or susceptible (i.e. Jonestown or Heaven's Gate). It seems like half the nation has drunk the Kool-Aid.

Oh, and the other reason why it won't work is because these RW blowhards LIVE to ruin Thanksgiving dinners. They show up to them SPECIFICALLY to spew their politics, shout down anyone who dares disagree, and then claim victory when people get tired of it and just want to have a nice dinner. It boggles the mind to think about how many "Just Totally Pwned My Lib Family" posts there are going to be on the RW blogosphere tomorrow night.
