#DeProgram
So we do need an AI bot to deprogram people. BlueBot. "I'm afraid I just blue myself. "

the basis for my new guy is that he believed he was the warrior of light bc a bunch of adults from the authoritarian commune he's from projected a bunch of spiritual psychosis onto him as a child so he's going through the entirety of msq trying to deprogram and learn how to go out and be himself

The endgame seems to be a publicly demonstrative way to avoid exposing kids indoctrinated by religious transphobia to narratives that might deprogram them given time. Or AT LEAST keep them from killing another trans kid at school. Because isolating trans kids doesn’t do a damn thing to protect them.

"it was one step up from mandatory corporate diversity training to make the skittle haired newcomer" I think a lot of people have accepted a lot of altRight language in their information bubbles when it comes to TLJ and need to deprogram themselves

I'm so excited about this one. We've needed to make a book like this FOREVER. I wanted to call it "They're Lying to You!", but we realized that would sound too much like it's SUPPORTING conspiracy thinking people, instead of just grabbing hold of the conspiracy-minded audience to deprogram them.

Netenyahoo is no different from anyone else who would take over there. Pretty much the only option is to deprogram basically everyone there and potentially interrupt the continuity of government (via jailing and stuff).

yes thats is ideal, but not practical, these people you want to deprogram dont want it, and they will actively police you if you try. The current police system needs to be reformed completely, or more desirably abolished entirely; for their purpose and foundation was corrupt from its inception.

True. But we can use her to help deprogram the cultists until she is voted out one day...

Yeah it really is and getting out and doing the work to deprogram myself is why I landed on there's no fixing the institution.

It's so hard to deprogram, right? We all pushed so hard, and I'm really trying to practice peace. So far it's turning out better than I could have expected. 💜💜💜💜 Thank you for reading. It matters.

in a better version of its narrative imo, not to be predictable w/ my interests but WFM felt like it was setting up Miorine needing to deprogram Suletta from being a blade wielded by her mother, and then S2 goes "and then Suletta's mom drops the knife she forged and moves on to a different plot"

D&D is not a roleplaying game you should be playing in 2025.

It is a brain parasite monster that you need to exorcise and deprogram yourself from.

You can deprogram people, but they have to first admit that they've been programmed. Q is not insular or esoteric, it's just one of the large sums of cults that exist in America, and because it lacks a physical control mechanism, it's easier than something like Scientology.

I'm sure Sundeipne could help deprogram her and let her be who she wants to be—even if that is a dominant maid who is a gentle bully to her part-donor.

Wow.

Brain.

Holy shit.

So since before 2016 I’ve been asking the question:

“How do you deprogram 1/3 of America?”

Never got a satisfactory answer.

Just now: maybe like a TV politics-drama that would introduce them back to Civics, decency & public service…

My FUCKING brain: “THE EAST WING”

Guilty of every one of these constantly, even with regular partners because inbuilt societal expectations and shame/embarrassment is a hard thing to deprogram y'all 😫

Every single day, I have to deprogram the bullshit my maga coworkers spew, easily refuted talking points they got from Fox News. Some days I have it in me, other days I let them believe whatever because I just don't have the energy for their nonsense.

Dronification as you are now forced to work for collective good.

Congratulations comrade, the state has seen it fit to upgrade you with a new regiment. We will deprogram you from your faulty capitalist thinking. Do not resist. You are one of the collective now.

fed slop all day every day about the evil gubmint and 'self reliance' and you know what I'm not even sure practical firsthand experience on the receiving end of this debacle will be enough to deprogram most of them

There will come a time, in my opinion, when MAGAts will need us, and the only way to deprogram them will be through kindness. Just my opinion, though.

100% how i was raised. Been trying to deprogram myself of this for my entire life.
I think about this a lot.
October 26, 2025 at 3:40 PM
i feel like even after my joker arc where i decided to be more selfish i still end up putting other peoples feelings in front of my own in convoluted ways and i dont think ill ever be able to deprogram that out of me.......but at least i have boundaries(?)
