Other than this being the 3915th respost of this article, what’s the news?
It’s not like she’s wrong, and it’s not like everyone hasn’t been saying this in private for 3 years
It was an obvious joke if you hear her.
Fucking corporate media.
She’s not wrong.
I do not disagree with her but that can only happen if they are taught to use critical thinking skills and apply those skills to personal beliefs.
Those treasonous bastards need a swift kick to correct them
Conservative America lives in a world entirely made of lies. And that is simply a fact.
Stalin could only dream of the kind of 24/7 lying machine that conservatives have set up, spewing and repeating b.s. over and over to a captive audience of rubes (aka their base). These people turn on the T.V. and hear conservative lies, carefully orchestrated by conservative think tanks of professional liars and fabulists. Then they go to “church”, where a conservative “priest” feeds them a bastardized, self-serving, drivel that has little to do with the Christianity it claims to be.
A conservative in America is someone who lives in a world entirely made of lies.
And it didn’t start with Trump. The trickle-down b.s. years were no better. Conservatism in America is more a scam/grift than anything else. The fact is conservative America in general just doesn’t CARE what the truth is. Truth is of no interest. The question is: Is it to my (short term, immediate) advantage to “believe” this? Conservative thinking is exactly backwards.
Otherwise known as “basic civics”
MAGAs are going to run with, “Hillary wants us all ded!” aren’t they
Not “may.” They need it. *We* need them to be deprogrammed.
Someone recently posted about their venture into the midwest from California as a person of color. They expounded on how weird the experience was. Guns, football, beer, and Jesus was the sentiment. With a lot of side-eyes.
The republicans know how to market.
It’s true. Cult deprogramming is a really thing, and MAGA is a genuine cult. If we don’t do it we will pay the price.
And some need to be ‘detained’.
This woman is the last person democrats want to publicly speak during the elections year.
Truer words were never spoken.
She’s right, but probably not the right person to be saying it. That will breed a whole new conspiracy.
She’s probably right. Hell just today I’ve encountered a group of them over on r/historyporn who think Nazis are the good guys and that book burnings are awesome. I jokingly wrote a comment paraphrasing a line from “The Blues Brothers” and said something like “Be more like Jake Blues. Nazis are bad. Blues is good.” and it’s been downvoted to hell and back more times than I can count.
On second thought, I think we should forgo the deprogramming and give lobotomies a try.
There’s a documentary called The Brainwashing of my Dad. This woman documented the change in her father after he became immersed in Fox News and conservative talk radio. At the end she “deprogrammed” him by just getting him away from that crap.
There’s a large portion of America that is just too stupid and too deep into this weird trump-christianity cult that I’m not sure we can recover without putting some real federal money into education again
Right message
Wrong messenger
I mean she’s right. They believe in an alternate reality not supported by facts and logic. Just by what Fox and Trump tell them.
“May???” Must be deprogrammed.
She was right about the deplorables too…HC calls a spade a spade
The word “may” is very generous.
Jim Jones could’ve only dreamed of such blind, unquestionable devotion.
People used to say “oh they only pick the most stupid people to interview to make them all look bad.” I think it’s fairly safe to say we’ve seen more than enough of them speaking, thinking and acting that no one should be left in any doubt as to the mindset, or lack thereof, that these people have.
They only have themselves to blame. Only they can ‘deprogram’. Like the shrink and the light bulb first they have to want to change.
Once again, Hillary is 100% correct.
​
But… her EMAILZ
I mean, well, they do. She was joking. I’m not.
I hate when I agree with her, but every damned point she makes in that article is spot on. The problem is the vast gulf between “we need to” and we will or even we can.

She’s right, although it’s probably not possible
She ain’t wrong

Deprogramming for deplorables.
She was correct in 2016 and she is correct today.
Before anyone gets asshurt and reflexively jumps on her, read up on the process of [denazification](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denazification).

1. She was joking.
2. She’s right.
3. Who gives a shit.
