How else to explain the utter explosion of insanity and cult indoctrination?

She also wrote some groundbreaking feminist books. Something has changed between 2000-ish when she worked with the Gore campaign and today.

It seems like something snapped around her time working in Occupy Wall Street. Not blaming Occupy. Just noting the time frame. I kind of tuned her out after that.

The scary thing about conspiracies is that they feed on both ideological sides. We mock QAnon but there's a lot of those people who were involved in the Occupy movement that became hard-core Trumpers.

A girl I used to date, who would go to Iraq War protests and was damn near a Hippie is now a Trump loving QAnon nutter. Of course, her current partner is a Nazi so... I'm baffled how these people can change so dramatically.

I was confused by her comment because Biden never hid the fact he would support further lockdown orders if the science indicated it was needed. But she must have not been paying attention...or she's lying.
