No seriously...how *do* you deprogram 75 million people? Where do you start? Fox? Facebook? We have to start thinking in terms of post-WWII Germany or Japan. Or the failures of Reconstruction in the South.
This is not your standard partisan policy disagreement. This is a conspiracy theory fueled belligerent death cult against reality & basic decency. The only actual policy debates of note are happening within the dem coalition between left and center left.
I know conservatives are upset by some of the responses here. And yeah, many are out of line. But what do you expect people to do in self-preservation? The Right has been running 4 years on "fuck your feelings, my conspiracy theories are valid opinions, and we have more guns."
You can't run on a civil war footing hopped up on conspiracy theories hating everyone who lives in cities, mainlining Fox/Breitbart/QAnon, threatening to kidnap governors and shoot protesters, without people trying to figure out how to reverse the brainwashing.
i mean, for chrissakes, conservatives are literally giving themselves COVID just to own the libs. They're dying in COVID wards insisting they don't have COVID because it must be a liberal plot. People are gonna try to figure out how to defend themselves.
And no, of course I'm not advocating "re-education camps" or anything like that. The point is that conservative infotainment is disinformation propaganda indistuinguishable from cult programming, and social media algorithms enable it.
And yes, it might be healthy to break the spell of the cult programming by showing COVID wards, the kids in cages and other victims and consequences of the conservative infotainment cult on the local news, the newspapers, social media, etc, so that people see what they have done.
Give them someone else to follow - I don’t think it’s a coincidence so many are evangelicals. These are followers.
And contrary to what they proclaim, most evangelical churches are built around the cult of “the pastor” not Christianity. We’ve had many storefront churches fall apart in our community when the congregation becomes disaffected with a particular pastor. Trump fills the same role.
I know lots of Trumpers. It is absolute brainwashing by both Fox & Facebook. It's the only two places they get their info. It's like an addiction.
I think we have to add OANN to that list now.
