(12,359 posts)A kid with psychiatric problems who apparently had Tucker Carlson's memes embedded deep in the brain, was able to buy three guns, body armor and then kill indiscriminately because . . . Freedumb and the overarching belief in replacement theory.
The GOP/MAGA propaganda machine is already in gear talking not about these grotesque, senseless murders but how 'curious' it is that the killing spree happened just before the midterms as if the responsibility is somehow linked to their opposition (think Dems).
Anything to deflect, distract, distort.
If Repugs and/or the ultra-MAGAs take over, this is what we can expect at every level--lies, propaganda and the dissolution of anything resembling democratic governance.
We have a clear view of this insanity in the Pennsylvania primaries, specifically the Republican candidates for Governor and Senate.
My tagline is more relevant now than when I first included it:
Vote as if your lives depended on it. Because they do.
