Talk about blowing shit out of proportion. At this point it is standard operating procedure for these clowns.

These people and their megaphones will incessantly exaggerate minor incidents and accidents as if they’re some sort of nefarious plot to screw over “Republican areas” (convenient to not mention that Democrats live there too).

Oh the irony, when there has been a slow motion (and some fast motion also known as Jan 6) nefarious plot by these same people to irrevocably alter the American government and society.

The more and more I’m looking at the current societal/political environment with so much disinformation I’m turning more skeptical as to what is going to come in 4 weeks time. Even if Harris wins, this has just been so disheartening.

Well for starters, they are the forever victims of Big Brother gov't unless of course, it's their Republican Big Brothers that's running the show and now, and now that's a whole different story because being oppressed and exploited by the folks they elected is a good thing because these idiots have been brain-fucked into thinking that way. Meanwhile, the Democrats are pleading for them to take what's being offered to them in the way of job creating infrastructure projects, tax cuts for the middle class, cheaper negotiated drugs, student loan forgiveness programs, affordable medical programs and a pile of other beneficial policies and legislative proposals that their own "conservative" legislators won't ever give them because "it's a commie socialist plot" to be benefitting from the social safety net offerings the radical left is bribing them with. And these fucking idiots are buying into that scam, literally millions of them.

I found it. North Carolina National Guard has stepped forward and admitted it was one of their Blackhawks that was trying to deliver generator's to the location at the request of a local civilian organization. The crew aborted the delivery attempt once they realized the situation on the ground. The crew has been grounded until the investigation is complete. The NC National Guard has admitted that sometimes things don't go as planned. Biden didn't send secret Blackhawks to NC to disrupt supply deliveries to Republican areas.
Thank God. I was just about to send a big donation to Trump's Truth About Biden Fund. I should have known.

Pass it on..... On October 21st we're all Democrats at the stroke of noon GMT have been ordered by Biden to go outside and blow toward Florida. And don't forget to deny we control the weather. One of our Blackhawk rotors will set the air spinning.

I used to be just a nobody but now I'm an important victim.

No one has ever accused the republicans of being smart, but if a person is down, they will exhaust themselves kicking them.
Stockholm survivors know the stomping is coming and have concluded without any doubt whatsoever it's better to be the kicker than being the kicked. It's a choice between humanity and life. The mystery to me is how and why in some empathy survives and in others it does not. I am sure severity is one factor. Some kids are born among monsters and others among less damaged people.

Well when you put it that way, I find myself being in the same boat.
Nice. To know you are in that boat means you are not in it. Victim mentality requires a lack of self awareness. Seems to me the first requirement in solving a problem is knowing you have one. Victim mentality is part of the process of denial, I think.

We have all been victimized and feel resentment to one degree or another I would say and we have all tried making a huge deal out of our suffering for the sake of drawing attention. Children need and deserve care. I can also take the form of hypochondria. But it does imply a loss of dignity to fill a need that shouldn't be there.

"Generalize"

That is way over the top. Equating the thoughts of a few with the thoughts of all goes both ways. If people disagree with liberals experts they are given a label and wind up in your check box.

As far as FEMA is concerned I think they do an overall good job considering their constant lack of resources and man power, but its better than nothing.

But yes, politicizing the response to the flooding disaster is inappropriate and spreading wild claims is harmful to those trying to receive aid.
You had a typo in there, I fixed it for you.

-I dunno man the way Republicans have been about screwing over even their own voters,.it smacks of "don't worry we'll just steal the election at the local board level anyway".
Yeah, watch red districts all across the nation suddenly double their turnout numbers this year for some mysterious reason.

I would say the same thing I told Republicans who claimed the 2020 election was stolen. If you can't prove it in court, it didn't happen.

Hope Elmo is right that he’s screwed when Harris wins. The fines and lawsuits will be plenty for all his lies.

Only reading the headline, my answer is: ok. More funds for other people. You don't want the help, great.

I just watched it. It’s definitely worthwhile.

But yeah, I get the sentiment. I feel bad for the son who’s trying to put time into showing this guy that the stuff that he is looking at are baldface lies. But when you’re in the rabbit hole, there is pretty much no way out. Usually it takes something life altering for you to get out. One would think this could possibly be an opportunity, but clearly this guy is proving and impossibly resistant. And he won’t get help because of it. And because he won’t get the help because he’s too stubborn and stupid to ask, he’ll resent the federal government even more.

If Elmo is breaking the law why is the government waiting until after the election? They should be going after him now.

AFAIK the video of him saying he is "fucked" during that Tucker interview is him speculating that Kamala is going to come after him solely because he is a vocal Trump supporter, you know, because that's what Democrats do. They don't prosecute criminals, they prosecute "good Americans."

Imagine his surprise if nobody goes after him because Harris wins.
