Am i crazy or what?

[bluestarone]

i feel whats going on in this country can only be explained one way? The Left Behind Movie!!! (if you've watched it) i'm not super religious BUT people are just not listening to any reasoning at all!! I just can't believe how the Russians and Republicans have this world by the balls!!! i feel the Trump crowd will start messing with the people that DO NOT support the SOB! The Republicans are absolutely amazingly agreeing to everything, The Devil has to be causing all this and we need to RESIST RESIST!! all thoughts welcomed!!

1. Oh, you're definitely crazy!

Just kidding!

It is so bizarre and troubling that people could get behind Dolt 45 and attempt to downplay the Russian connections. We're living in an extended episode of The Twilight Zone. Hopefully there is a satisfying ending that involves impeachment. Can't come soon enough!

2. If you're not reading the Slacktivist blog, give it a shot. You're not crazy.

Yes, Post-millennial dispensationalists (the ones who believe in the rapture) have a contingent who seem to be trying to Make It Happen.

There's also the side that they're engaged in a giant Live Action Role Playing game (LARP) because the fantasy that sustains them is they're better than those baby-killers, no matter what they do.

And the long-standing collusion between the Baptist leadership and racism is a big factor.

And you can start with a compilation of Fred Clark's deconstruction of the series; there's a link to the ebook in the right-hand sidebar.)
