Agreed. The people projecting election fraud onto all of us for years, seem to have conveniently forgot about it. They've been cheating the system, breaking the law, and ignoring the constitution from the jump. I don't know why we keep playing by the rules in reverse.

I think this is the most difficult part about all of this, because those of us who are seeing what's happening, also understand that there aren't very many good options to combat it. We should've been doing that a long time ago.

I understand and agree re: "our own Joe Rogan". Here's what I find challenging: 1) "Better" by who's authority? That's a tough connection point. 2) They've already found their tribe where they feel like part of the group. Introducing a new way of thinking is threatening to them.

I respect your reasoning. You lost me at discussing education access. Access is available almost everywhere, including the same medium they're using to get views. They know what they're doing. As for having a beer with them... Nah, I'd rather roll in glass. 😏

This feels accurate. They are definitely delusional and I can see how this group could make them feel a part of something. Then what? Do we think that sitting down and talking to them on their level will fix the delusion. I don't think so. What drives them isn't going to change.

This part resonated with me. I have a much easier time feeling some compassion for a 4th grader. These are grown men we're talking about. Did you really find or see any charm in them?

I think that the countering train left the station. These guys are classically awkward and under socialized. They grew up with mini computers in their hands and they don't know how to interact with people or the world around them without their phones. Maga chose to exploit that. Dems didn't.

At least we can agree that intelligence was lacking with that bunch. It seems like you're confusing judgement with believing someone when they tell you who they are. These guys were clear about who they are. I believe them. This has nothing to do with their opportunities for the right info.

I'm not buying one cent of this bs. No, Democrats don't need to bow to these insecure, little excuses of human beings. Where we've failed as a nation is getting to a place where being a youtube "influencer" brings more value than ANY other person. I didn't last through 3 minutes of this garbage.

I disagree. Those of us that have continued to show up and vote for democracy, don't deserve this. This is a debt we don't owe, but are being forced to repay nonetheless. Hopefully karma will work as it's supposed to. If not, how can we continue to believe in this experiment?

No surprise there. My question is, why do we continue to play by the rules? For all the bad-mouthing we do about other countries and governments being corrupt, what would we see if we turned the mirror around and looked? Smh

Couldn't agree more. At what point did we decide as a society, that we're better off being lap dogs for ANYONE, because they have money?! Work to live, not live to make someone else rich.
