Try to get her to read Hate, Inc by Matt Taibbi. I got it for my Fox News watching Dad this Christmas and he liked it.

Speak of the devil. This same guy just sent me these. Hadn’t heard from him in days. Clearly he is on one today. I haven’t told him yet the Italian government story is from 2019.

I assume they’re all part of the global pedophile ring that Trump is exposing. This guy’s hope has been renewed.

haha i forgot about the obamagate declassification, i heard that one last night too

ThisGuy · January 15, 2021, 8:28pm

I don’t even know what that is yet.

The hat is his cover.

This shit is always posted by a deplorlable. And “spew hate” always means, “say mean things about Trump”.

Yea I found this one on a friends page who posts terrible right wings memes non-stop.

suzzer99 · January 15, 2021, 10:40pm

It’s always the far-right-wingers. They want to hold terrible views but then have it be just politics and everyone pretend they aren’t horrible people.

I would dig up some more from this person’s timeline. But then FB will think I want to interact and start promoting everything she posts.

I’m having a real hard time coping with the fact that I’ve lost my parents. I got this text from my brother. I know it’s not malicious and it’s just years and years of Fox News and now Newsmax, but fuck it hurts to know.

They also refuse to get a vaccine.

ThisGuy · January 16, 2021, 12:57am

Yeah it’s painful. My brothers and I all feel like we’ve kinda lost our father, and he’s not half as far gone as your mom.

I’m pretty close to pulling the Christian God blah blah card.

Hired_Goons · January 16, 2021, 1:56am

@JohnnyTruant dropped this in the COVID memes thread

ThisGuy · January 16, 2021, 1:56am

I’m getting to this guy on Facebook who isn’t even a friend of mine that’s been messaging me a bunch of screenshots about Chinese troops on the border and Lin Wood talking to the generals about the secret plan to round up all the pedophiles. I’m starting to think I might actually save him.

That’s above and beyond wireless’ brother posts.

ThisGuy · January 16, 2021, 2:08am

I don’t know if anyone really wants to see this but it’s something to see. This guy and I have mutual friends and they say he’s otherwise a normal dude. They also implied he would kick the shit out of me if I go too hard at him so I’m proceeding with some caution.

I love you posting this. Please keep it up. That said, I know two people there and they haven’t said anything about them pulling a military coup. They are annoyed they have to go there away from their families. If their commanding officers commanded something like this I can’t imagine them actually doing it.
