Well, I'm glad I got THIS off my chest

[William Seger]

I have a YouTube that I only use for harassing #rump cultist, and I've been using it a lot this past week. I've received surprisingly few replies, and most of them have just been accusations of "TDS." I finally had enough of that and posted the following reply to the last one:

If you DO NOT have what trump cultists call TDS, that means you refuse to recognize or just don't care that he is an obnoxiously self-obsessed and vindictive, malignant narcissist; the most prolific and BLATANT pathological liar American politics has ever seen; a racist and xenophobic bigot; a sociopath who has lied and cheated his way through every aspect of his life, including cheating his way into college and out of the draft, cheating contractors and cheating on taxes and loan application in his businesses, creating a fake university and a fake charity, cheating on all three of his wives, and he even cheats at golf. He's a misogynist and an unregistered sex offender; a twice-impeached and 36-count convicted felon who ran out the clock on many more certain convictions. He's a seditionist who tried to overturn his ego-crushing election loss with fake electors and a lie-driven riot, and who pardoned over 1500 seditionists who attacked the Capitol, including ones who injured 140 policemen and wanted to hang Pence for not caving into a lawless rejection of the valid electors. And most importantly, he's a wannabe fascist dictator who ignores the Constitution and has already usurped significant Constitutional powers from a complacent Republican Congress, including charging tariffs, deciding how tax money is spent, killing or decimating departments and programs, and starting a war. He created the most unqualified cabinet in history, and we have since found that many of them are indeed dangerously incompetent — especially his Secretary of War Crimes and Secretary of Weaponized Justice — and he embarrasses them, himself and our country by having meetings where he goes around the room demanding praise. His narcissism is a serious weakness that makes him easy to manipulate by people like Putin and anyone who wants favors like pardons, and it also causes him to take credit for things he had nothing to do with while NEVER taking responsibility for ANYTHING. He destroyed an historic part of OUR presidential mansion to create a vanity royal ballroom, and wants that and a dozen other things around Washington named after himself. He won 2024 by a thin margin, but he thinks he is only president of Republicans, while he calls Democrats "garbage" for not supporting him. He insults journalists for asking questions that expose his failures and mendacity while calling facts "fake news" and lies "alternative facts." He and his family openly commit "pay-to-play" that he spent 6 years unsuccessfully trying to pin on the Bidens, and they are now $1.4 billion richer than they were in January. And now, since his re-election, he's showing unmistakable signs of a mental illness called power psychosis, which is characterized by delusions of grandeur, delusions of infallibility, delusions of never being held accountable, delusions of unchecked power, and paranoid delusions. He is an awful president because he is an awful human being. If you DO NOT have this TDS, what the hell is wrong with YOU!? If you've lost friends and alienated family members because of your support for Trump, it's because they're wondering that same thing, and accusing THEM of derangement just makes it worse.

After all that typing, from now on, I'm going to repost that on every "TDS" reply I get. I know I only hit the highlights, but it was getting too long.

1. Hating a rapist is not derangement

[rampartd]

2. tds is an evolutionary development that allows us to resist con men and wannabe cult leaders.

4. Excellent letter William Seger

Way too many words for a trump supporter to read let alone comprehend. Highlighting the incredible chasm between us and them. THANK YOU for your efforts on our behalf.

5. + agree - too many words for MAGAts - they live in sound bites. n/t

[William Seger]

16. I do it to maintain my own sanity, anyway -- some powerful gaslighting going on (nt)

[Martin68]

6. Excellent summary! Downloaded for further use.

[PatSeg]

7. Very effective

If you plan to use it again however, I suggest you break it into several paragraphs. It is hard to read and you could lose a few readers after the first few sentences.

Of course, as others have mentioned, it is possible most MAGATs wouldn't read more than a few words, if that. They usually read just enough to start or prolong a fight.

[William Seger]

17. Yep.

[Gaugamela]

8. The cult thinks WE'RE the ones with TDS. Cult members always accuse

the “normies” of being brainwashed by some kind of indoctrination or religion.

[FakeNoose]

9. Well this is an awesome reply, but I doubt they will read it

From now on you'll be targeted and tormented by some hideously demented people.
I know your intentions are good, but you might want to quit Youtube after this.
(We'd all understand if you do.)

15. It's a throw-away account (nt)

[Cirsium]

10. The MAGA response

"See how deranged they are? Look at all of those words. They are obsessed!"

[William Seger]

18. That might not be far from wrong, given how hard it is to avoid thinking about what he's done

... and so afraid of what he'll do next that I spend way too much time checking the news.

11. Brilliant!

I want to send it to my in-laws, and, unfortunately, a couple of siblings.

Bravo!!!

12. I'm glad you got it off your chest too. It's all over mine. 😜

Keep planting those seeds. Eventually, something has to grow.

[flashman13]

13. But whudda bout the price of ground beef?

Greatest ground beef in the world.

14. Good grief. Now going to back to happy, sappy Christmas movies.

19. Excellent

Accurate

20. TDS is what they have.

We have reality.
