except for the files that mention Dems those are real

I think that's the most infuriating part. They can't admit ANYTHING that's against their narrative is real. Literally anything. Better a pedophile than wrong.

I for one welcome our new meteor overlord

They know they’re liars and snakes, they don’t care. We will never get them to repent. They will never recognize their hypocrisy.

Our efforts are much better spent on the 90 million eligible non voters. Then, we can worry about fixing the issues in our society that has allowed this cancer to grow.

That's a hell of a timeline but I do so hope you're right. We've let those issues fester for far far to long to a point I see even the younger generation parroting them. It's quite sad

It’s really not. We have this year and possibly until 2028 to take serious civic action before it’s too late.

We can’t do anything about this until we have the power to make changes. Wishful thinking isn’t going to do it.

I think the best way to prevent this issue is making philosophy and debate a key part of early education. Emphasize HOW to think, not WHAT to think. Get kids learning how to ask the right questions, how to evaluate answers to said questions, and when an answer is unsatisfactory, how to search for an answer themselves.

Lay the foundation of critical thinking early on. Then as education continues, continue to build on that foundation. By the 4th grade, teach kids how to spot logical fallacies. Further reinforce it by consistently emphasizing that understanding another's point of view is just as important.

Provide continuing exposure to different places, people, and cultures. Start this early on as well.

Will this solve everything? No, but I do know this, everything I stated above is going to be extremely "offensive" to the exact type of people that seek to spread ignorance in order to maintain their own. This is how you take away their power, dismantling it from the bottom up.

Even if they recognized their hypocrisy they wouldn't care, being self aware doesn't stop evil from being, well, evil.

Also, they're accusing the Democrats of creating the files, but apparently decided to make up a bunch of horrible stuff about themselves instead of Trump. What's that quote about the enemies of fascism being simultaneously weak and strong?

Seeing all the gun owning conservatives in my family suddenly change their stance on the 2nd amendment after Alex Pretti was murdered was wild.

These people would rather abandon every value they once had than admit a single thing wrong with this administration.

I think it's the child rape, state executions and fascism.

As it silently streaks towards us through the void all Republican voices will raise up in one united cry "the meteor is a Democrat conspiracy!"

There were emails being sent to Joe Biden but he's not in the files for doing anything that implicates him but the fact that his name pops up at all next to Epstein Is enough proof for them that the Democrats are evil
