Can't say I'll ever begrudge anyone for not buying into this. Person like this, she's a symptom and a carrier. Spreading hate, fear, and ignorance.
Her type though is True Believer, and Trust No One. A conspiracy theorist with minimal real education and no faith in systems or the Authority in a Field. She wants so bad to be the good guy, but has failed to identify the structural problems. It has to be people, it has to be demons, it has to be the Joos. She's just hitting out now that the real bad guys have self-identified.
When she starts seeing the problems in the system that led to the ascendency of the bad guys then I'll be more interested in her face turn. Right now she's still too people focused to trust she won't just revert or find someone new to fawn over.
I wish her luck on this journey.
+2 for looking in hindsight, but +2 does very little when you're sitting at -297
I hope she literally gets trampled by a stampede of cows while campaigning at some county fair to appeal to dumbass hicks on her first day running for her inevitable presidential campaign.
I have a lot of sympathy for dumb hicks, I was raised by them and was one once until I escaped into the real world and got myself educated. I have ZERO sympathy for grifters and pipers who deliberately lie their way to lordship over the dumbasses. They know what they're doing and they are the definition of evil.
The damage that she and her peers have done to the world by campaigning for and supporting the Trump administration cannot be overstated. Between Covid and the withdraw from WHO and USAID the death toll from her and her minions and Trump will be in the millions.
