Right now, there are tens of thousands of people who fully believed:
1) the scumbags were actually the good guys 2) the good guys were criminals 3) the scumbag heroes were going to wipe out the good guy criminals
And now the scumbags they thought were heroes all just got banned
These Q following whackadoos fully believed this was the giant day of reckoning where everyone from Obama to Pelosi was going to be destroyed.
And now, all the people who told them that just got wiped out on Twitter, FB, etc.
Imagine the world-rocking cognitive dissonance there
Some are going to get with reality upside the head like a 2x4.
Most though... they can’t even process what just happened... and the people they rely on to spoon feed them nonsense just went bye-bye.
Going to be a wild reckoning over in their whackadoo corners.
Total meltdown.
We need someone with expertise in cults to give us insight into what happens when the people with a grip on the cult all get taken out quickly.
I’m not sure there is a precedent for that. Maybe the fall of Hitler?
It isn’t everyday, a cult’s leadership gets smashed like this.
And I think there is even less of a precedent for a cult where an original leader had a very strong psychological grip; was then taken out; and then someone took their place and held the cult together.
Seems more likely the cult splinters and shrinks.
An expert would know btr.

Somehow, the very worst fuckopotami (plural of fuckopotamus) have gotten the wholly errant message that the people they have horrified for four years are now hoping for a group hug.
Speaking only for myself: fuck the absolute entirety of that.

We didn’t want to win the White House, Senate, and House because this is a playground game of kickball where you win or lose and then just play again.

One of the saddest aftermaths of that Bean Dad asshole’s bullshit yesterday and my vomitus overshare afterwards:
The sheer volume of people raised by toxic parents who said they never had kids because they worried they couldn’t raise a child well.
Abuse has a long tail.

If that is you and you are still at a stage of *deciding* whether or not to someday have kids, just know that you can indeed be a good and loving parent.
You inherited nothing. Toxicity isn’t written into your DNA.

Parenting is ‘will’ more than ‘skill’.
If you have the will, you will find (or can learn) the skill.
I think being a product of some dysfunction can be, ironically, a strong foundation for becoming a loving parent.
I’ve had a couple Guinness so I am just the right level of disinhibited to lay out why I am white-hot with incandescent aggrievement about that dumb Bean Dad mother****** and the people defending him.
Buckle up. Turbulence may occur in flight.

If nothing else, this will allow people to understand me better. Some will like me more; some will like me less. I do not remotely care which camp people fall into.
I had a fucked up childhood. It was an insidious kind of fucked up. Not physically abusive in a way that “counts”.
I spent weekends hostage to a depressed, alcoholic father in a small New York City apartment.
In summer, if the apartment windows were open when I came back from the schoolyard across the street and I could hear music playing too loud, it was going to be a long night.
