More and more the contrarians are sounding like Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones. We’ll get there very soon.
Like the backlash to “woke” excesses (and it exists) is to mock the idea of systemic racism? Really?
And there’s a whole school now of “why corporations are embracing wokeism” that sounds IDENTICAL to Alex Jones explaining how corps are part of the New World Order enacting the UN Project 21. Soon Greenwald will be on about water making frogs transgender or something.
I’ve done my fair share of mocking #resist liberals, as well as purity leftists, but these contrarians read like they’re outta their minds to me.

i feel like liberals, who mostly avoid rw media, have no idea of the craziness they soak in daily that millions of our fellow americans truly believe. roving bands of antifa, cancelling disney cartoons on the behalf of powerful blm militias. *they believe all this shit*
liberals tell ourselves "they can't really believe that." and i am telling you they do. the politicians and right wing newsmakers are playacting, but the viewers/listeners 100% believe it. all of it.
when they vote republican they really and truly believe they are voting to stop antifa/blm thugs from ripping their cities apart and giving all of their jobs (and daughters) to "illegals." they. really. believe. this.
i think people went with the plan of wearing masks with the understanding there would be a vaccine. the view will be that they held up their end of the deal, wore a mask, got a shot, and for most situations won't go back to the mask.
its going to go back to the situation where we hear and understand cdc guidance on things and the response will be "yeah, okay, ideally..." but then we don't follow it to the letter.
the pizza place with the pedophiles was rnc headquarters after all
i might have less schadenfreude if i hadn't been exposed to the steady drumbeat of moral superiority from the "family values" right for decades as they assailed lgbtq families, single parent families, poor families
maybe its their cultural icons and extremist leaders who radicalized them to be so pro-molestation
im 43 and it blows my mind that i can use swears when speaking to my aunts. recently i was telling my aunt about a meltdown from a coach i saw at a little league game and to explain the whole story involved swearing.
it felt wild to say those words to her.
me to my aunt: "and then the guy is yelling 'fuck you! fuck you!'"
me, internally:
its prob some weird socially repressed/inherited from the british thing but in our home life, there's practically no swearing and def not from "the kids." and no matter how old i get to my aunts (and my mom before she passed) i will forever be "one of the kids."
