GOP Insanity Containment 2: This is the Place. This is the Time, Cowboy.

Something kind of amazing to show people tearing down statues of Confederate soldiers and say that they’re tearing down statues to put ones up to their own gods

I looked up the Georgia Guidestones and never mind what they are, the important part is this:

The guidestones have become a subject of interest for conspiracy theorists. One of them, an activist named Mark Dice, demanded that the guidestones “be smashed into a million pieces, and then the rubble used for a construction project”, claiming that the guidestones are of “a deep Satanic origin”, and that R. C. Christian belongs to “a Luciferian secret society” related to the New World Order. At the unveiling of the monument, a local minister proclaimed that he believed the monument was “for sun worshipers, for cult worship and for devil worship”. Conspiracy theorist Jay Weidner has said that the pseudonym of the man who commissioned the stones – “R. C. Christian” – resembles Rose Cross Christian, or Christian Rosenkreuz, the founder of the Rosicrucian Order.

I guess we have to step up the local crazy. We’re still just banning books here.

Jfc its the fucking satanic panic of the early 90s all over again.

I would kill to have that level of stupidity combined with that total lack of self-awareness.

It would be hard, especially considering that would mean my therapist has been lying to me for like 5 years.

This kind of panic stuff never stopped, it just became generalized. The “local news” is a non stop barrage of fearmongering about everything. Republicans have been terrorizing people with threats of MUSLIMS and TERRORISTS and SOCIALISTS and HILLARY for decades. The US has had paranoia themed right wing politics for decades, all that is new is that the social media age has created a rich petri dish of stupidity for these people to manipulate.

Maybe your therapist is grooming you to have sex with Disney pedophiles. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH!

Makes me think…

Freddy Ford, chief of staff for the Office of George W. Bush, said, “President Bush has all the confidence in the world in the United States Secret Service and our law enforcement and intelligence communities.”

So…who wants to tell him about the WMDs?

Would ANYONE care if he were assassinated? Seems like a waste of a bullet.

You’d like to think so, but Fox would blare incessantly about WEAK SLEEPY JOE BIDEN and how THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN DEMS SPEND ALL THEIR TIME ON CRT INDOCRINATION etc., etc. And I am pretty sure the eDems would lunge instinctively to the right to try to appease Persuadable Republicans.
