Notice a pattern yet?




The Republican Party.

First they denied climate change and evolution.

Then Covid and masks.

Now democracy and election results.

Notice a pattern yet?


Same over here with the Brexit crowd. Apart from maybe evolution. There are not that many young earthers in the ranks of the far right deniers of all things logical. Truth twisters and deniers in pursuit of power for powers own sake, just in the age of Q and the interwebs means the gaslighting is now on speed...

and I would add paranoia as part and parcel of gaslighting and denial of reality. It's like they're living in an angry mindset that rebels against all that they see.

But I can't respect the never Trumper Republicans who don't admit responsibility to leading us down the path to Trump. I'm not hip to the people who did it in England, but I know Steve Bannon screwed up a generation of Gamers with this conspiracy stuff with Alex Jones. I do know Bannon plays in Europe, bought a monastery in Italy to train white supremacists, I know he has been slowed down by legal troubles here in the US. I do fear Trump will pardon him so he'll be free to continue
