So my wife just read to me who knew that we had so many cult members

[Duncanpup]

Sitting at the kitchen bar having coffee , she said in reading online. Who knew that we had so many people today that would follow a false prophet into the jungle to drink kool aid. Or who would follow a fake messiah into tearing our country apart because they worship him made me think so fucked up.

Then our grandson came running by the bar nude chasing the pup who was chasing the cat as the cat was running for cover. I saw grandson moments before he was in pajamas and clean diaper kid gets naked fast.

10. It's called the Sadim touch ...

Midas touch, everything turns to gold
Sadim touch (Midas spelled backwards), is the opposite effect, everything turns to $h1t.

12. Excellent

3. I hang out with my good friend

on Tues and Thurs when she watches her grandson. 3 dogs, one cat, one 2 year old equals constant amusement, a break from the madness of America.

6. Absolutely

[Duncanpup]

7. Agreed

13. That's true. Propaganda is designed for specific personalities.

It's entirely possible that there's a type of propaganda that would work on those of us who didn't fall for Q/Trump.

14. Can't the same thing be said about those who follow

religious leaders?

[Progressive Jones]

17. Yes. They're chumps. nt

16. I've been trying to think if I have fallen for any cult

I can't think of anything I feel whole-hearted about, except my family and friends.

I went batty over Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean, but I was drunk and got over the rum and Jack Sparrow.

I like things, and I'll fight for things I believe in, but I will always have a jaundiced eye peeled for stupidity.

8. Our world has turned into a

Marx Brothers movie.

[Duncanpup]

11. Great analogy

[sarchasm]

15. I keep coming back to the DC comics of the 60's ...

from Wikipedia ...

Bizzaro World

In the Bizarro world of "Htrae" (Earth spelled backwards), society is ruled by the Bizarro Code which states "Us do opposite of all Earthly things! Us hate beauty! Us love ugliness! Is big crime to make anything perfect on Bizarro World!" In one episode, for example, a salesman is doing a brisk trade selling Bizarro bonds: "Guaranteed to lose money for you". Later, the mayor appoints Bizarro #1 to investigate a crime, "Because you are stupider than the entire Bizarro police force put together". This is intended and taken as a great compliment.

18. I remember when Reagan was elected being amazed how stupid people could be

I mean, appealing to greed and ignorance
