Also, thanks for the cow thing. I had no idea. But it's true I am constantly boggled by these people.

It would be really great if someone could make a comprehensive list of the bizarre ideas MAGAs believe. Maybe if they saw such a list they'd rethink at least the most contradictory parts. Or maybe they'd lose a little bit of faith in their media feeds.

Everybody takes shots at the doddering old criminal. He's everywhere on Xitter and this site. FTG. We aren't reaching the loons. The normal people know what's at stake. They just need encouragement to vote the right way. Post lots of good stuff about Harris and Biden. It makes things better.

As Arendt points out in The Origins of Totalitarianism, anti-Semitism was never rooted out of the European psyche, and was waiting for the Nazis. It's still there. Just ask Jeremy Corbyn. Hatred and fear of immigrants is like that in the US. It's always under the surface, waiting for a fascist.

Worth noting this is also a characteristic of Joe Biden.

New, from me: three tales about the weirdo hypocrites behind the book bans. Case 1: a woman said that the image of a kiss in a kids book triggered a porn addiction and called for the publisher to be banned. Did not mention she works for a rival publisher. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-weirdo...
