I guess we need to prepare

to become a dictator country since we lost when we won because we have two Dems who does not care because they don't seem to mind since they ignore how bad it has gotten with this Q Party and our voting rights. I fear we have already lost our country. I am so sick of listening to my sister claiming their King will be put back in office because he won and how weak and old our Joe is. I told her, has she forget how old her king is. She than had a nerve to say how weak Biden is by not getting things done and get this,;He is letting Putin play him because he is corrupt and lost to Trump because the people wanted a strong president who is not afraid of anything and can take care of business. I mean, I was shocked to realize my own sister is a Q supporter.


She did not say it but she is paddling the same crap they paddle in.What has this man done to these people to brain wash them so easily.I told her he must be the antichrist and she went all in on Joe Biden and Obama and all this nonsense and I just walked out of my older sisters house after bringing her fruit since she has been ill. She was defending my sister views, which really made me about to question am I sane.It is crazy and scary to see my family turn into whatever cult they are following.I am not going any further in the things they said because it will send my blood pressure up. They made me sick enough that I have now washed my hands of them. Sorry to keep venting but I am going through hell at home so much so, I only will watch Rachel and don't even watch all of that faithfully.I have the TV on sometimes and be doing other things unless something catches my eye .Sorry for venting.

And get your mind off the “paddle” and politics in general.

Seriously. Work on your quality of life.

Go out. Have fun. Do whatever else you feel is needed to prep for a dictator country. Maybe a museum.

I plan to do just that because I fear I will be in a hospital since I already suffer from depression and they know it, but don't care.I am leaving politics alone and was until she brought it up at our ill sister's house. I guess I don;t matter to this family. Thank you for this advice that I am going to take and just follow here from time to time.Although it is kind of depressing here too when I read about what these Q people are doing all in state houses.

They should not generate your worldview. I'm not saying they are insignificant. I am saying they are holding too much power over your current mental state. Blogs and the like amplify the influence of extremist groups. It happens right here with Q. That is why I am saying it's time to back off a bit. Your quality of life matters and you cannot let yourself get dragged down the same whole as those you are describing. We need you healthy.

... being Trump voters to shut down their arguments about anything

Something like biting it's still better than Trump supporters trying to stop democracy

Or

Immigrants didn't attack America's capital building 016 Trump supporters did

Short and pithy looping them into the stupid makes them stop and think

Has work for me a couple of times already

... they come back with antifa or some other stupid shit Tell them Republicans voted against a 911 type commission investigating it... Show them on Google cuz no doubt Fox News doesn't mention it

I hear you on the depression man but we still got some outs One of them being another brute force election where we can scare people to come out to vote for one or two more senators

We cannot depend on brute force selections every time the wind that is ridiculous but if we don't have it this time we're up the creek

Bottom line the guy on Rachel said we can't depend on lawsuits continuing going forward and the Republicans could do them at the last second now because there's no VRA in place

So if everything stays the same a big group for selection this all selection year will help us immensely
