Yup. Same with rural PA. My former classmates who stayed in their hometown are almost universally deplorables.
I’m not sure why you’d want to do that. I hope you will stop.
I otherwise request that aside from us interacting when otherwise unavoidable while I’m a moderator, please do not respond to my posts. Treat me as though I don’t exist.
Just a request. I have no power over enforcing this boundary with you.
I’m sorry you feel that way, but you’re entitled to your own way of seeing things.
I accept your faulty perception of me.
I have no power or desire to control how you see me. I guess I have to accept that’s how you see things.
I’m not responsible for your feelings or experience.
I also accept your feedback on the impact of my post on you and potentially others. I will delete the post. Do not respond to me again please. I will not hit view on your posts either.
If you despise me so much you don’t want me replying to your posts then it seems like you probably shouldn’t moderate my posts. I’ll try to avoid responding to you but if it’s part of a conversation I’m interested in I may anyway.
“One of them told me if he’s right I have to make a post admitting I was wrong and he said he would do the same. I am looking forward to seeing what he does when the deadline passes.”
This guy kept his word. He posted “I was wrong, I apologize!” on my wall and he posted “I was wrong, I fell into the Q trap. Glad it is over. Moving on” on his own wall.

Wow - maybe there’s some hope. But if they all still fervently believe the country is run by a cabal of pedophiles in Hollywood and DC - we’re probably still fucked.

A cabal of pedophiles would still run the country better than Trump.
I mean, they have

… he didn’t say what he is moving on to. I assume these people will get sucked in to something else.

Dunno what thread this belongs in but in the derposphere a few historically nutty nutbags are angry and claiming that Biden is a coward because he “didnt attend his own inauguration.”
Lol wut? i gotta find the source where they are being fed this. Please, please, please be the faceoff Q theory.

He’s going off on people in the comments of Dan Bongino, Newsmax and Donald Trump Jr posts. A few hours ago he was saying all these right wing media outlets lied to him. Now he’s yelling at DJT Jr because Lin Wood said Trump could have used the military to stay in power and he chose not to do that. Also I guess it goes without saying after that that he still thinks the election was stolen. He’s all over the place. I don’t know what I expected.

Old former friend of mine that has been nearly nonstop posting insane shit for the last several years (including aggressively anti democrat shit, laden with insults) got his account suspended for stuff relating to the capitol riots. Not surprisingly he was ALL for a military takeover. He posted this today. The hypocrisy is hilarious to me. I wish I could give you a rundown of how much of a prick this guy has been for years, but just trust me.
I have scheduled my Facebook account for deletion. This is not going to be some rant about how bad social media is, complaining about censorship or content I don’t like… This is just about me.
It has become very clear to me that I, personally, cannot handle social media at this time in my life. Perhaps in the future, perhaps for other purposes, but I don’t have the self-control and wisdom needed to use this tool for the best purposes and completely avoid the… less than best purposes. No, I’m not leaving because it’s negative or toxic. Life itself has negativity and toxicity and I am certainly not giving up on that!
No, I am simply going to reduce my life down closer to my responsibilities as a husband, father, friend, and my calling to my God. “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain” (Phil. 1:21). I have come to realize this on deeper levels. If this is true–if I really mean that–then Christ needs to be on the throne of my heart and mind thereby directing my actions and words. I want him to be the essence of my life in earnest. If my obedience to His calling on my life is my true mission, then I can truly say that time I have wasted on FB has hindered that mission. I had always hoped to do more good than bad, but I can’t confidently say that I accomplished that…
I, like many others, have been absorbed by the noise of the past 4+ years. Regardless of what aisle we stand on right now, today marks a regime change. New leadership will attempt to bring new policies, new perspectives… As a proud Rightwing, Conservative Republican, I am not excited about today but I am also not in control. And I still love all of my Left, Liberal, Center, Independent, and Libertarian friends/family. We may not agree on HOW to do something, but most (basically all) agree that we want a better America and a better world in general. I have seen some neighbors bring down their flags while others have lifted theirs up and it reminds me that we are both still Americans. Biden gave a great speech and I hope he meant everything he said, I pray he honors all the promises he made. Regardless of what he says and does, I know my marching orders.
Because I place my trust in God alone, my trust was never IN Trump, IN his administration, or IN his policies. My trust has and will forever be IN CHRIST ALONE. He is my Rock, my Savior, my Strong Tower. He alone lived a sinless life. He alone sacrificed His life, shed his perfect blood, and rose from the dead that I might find forgiveness. In Him alone, I have found the fullness of life–the likes of which is not found in a political party, creed, social class, or economic status.
I am indebted to my Good Shepherd, my Prince of Peace, and His will over my life and my family. We want to move out of state but God has called us here. CA is our mission field. We want a lot of things, but there is nothing we want more than to stand before our Heavenly Father and hear “Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master!” (Matt. 25:21).
I realize now that I have not been “good and faithful” as I could have been. I have not been “faithful with a few things” as I know I will be moving forward. Time is the most precious commodity in existence–the only thing you can’t get back! My time is too valuable to squander on distractions. This is the decision I am making for my life and I pray that God shows you whatever balance or pivots He desires for you–regardless of how it looks in your context.
I leave you with this. Jesus loves you. I love you. I will be praying for President Biden. I will be praying for leadership. Daniel 2:21 “[God] changes the times and seasons; He removes kings and establishes them. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning.” If God wants Biden as President then all I can do is pray for Biden, be a good citizen, share the Gospel, be the salt and light I am called to be, stand up for what is right, call out what is wrong, remain obedient to my personal calling and live for eternity.
God bless you all! I would love to stay in touch with you. Like really, actually stay in touch. I would love to see you, grab coffee, chat in person, and remain as close as you want to be.
I want to make a good response to this, because it is probably the last time I will ever hear from him. I can’t think of anything yet. Maybe a simple “lol”

This person is a shockingly decent writer for being such an idiot, and relative to most of the conspiracy inhaling morons.

Oh yea straight up. I mean it was just constant - he posted between 5-20 times a day nonstop about it. Even on his linkedin!!! For like years. A lot of it was pretty deranged. I kept him around because I used to date his wife and I like seeing how their family is doing, and in my “collection” of deplorables I know he was the best look inside evangelical insanity.
Almost every line of that is bullshit in some way. I am really really struggling not to comment.
I honestly cannot take any jesus freak seriously no matter their politics.

Do I think Biden is being used as a pawn? Without a doubt. I’d take bets he won’t be president long. They will claim he’s unfit due to mental instability/dementia and invoke the 25th Amendment which will make Harris president. It’s the only plausible reason Harris would agree to be his running mate when she claimed he was a racist and a rapist.
Was posted by someone I know. What kind of odds should I offer them to put their money up? If we could agree on terms I’m very confident this individual would pay so I’m sure I’m not getting free rolled.
Start at 1:1 and see how cheap you can get but it’s free

Careful with the terms of the bet. 25th Amendment invocation is very unlikely but resignation is within the realms of possibility.
