Slowly but surely the delusion and bubble that the cons wrapped themselves around is slowly breaking away and you can feel the depression and low morale getting to them.

And I fucking LOVE it.

Yeah, I checked it out myself. Seems to be vaguely about that, with a couple topics about it. Otherwise it kinda reads like what I'd expect.

Its not just that its also Sydney Powell and Cheesbro but specifically powell. She's the biggest fish outside of Trump and Giuliani

No, Trump supporters are definitely a hive mind. They believe and repeat whatever Trump says no matter how nonsensical it is and no matter how much he contradicts himself.

They are a cult in an echo chamber. It's not like here where chuds get to roam free and whine about how they keep getting banned: you literally don't get to post there without being vetted.

So being moral and pointing + laughing is the only thing that can be done. They get to swim in their own feces.

I implore you to watch interviews of trump supporters at his rallies.

They literally think Joe Biden is a clone and Donald Trump is secretly the president.

How is that not a hive mind and how to we reason with those people?

Sure, but my response to seeing them see reality wouldn't be to laugh at them. I can see that as stupid for being vetted before posting (not sure how they are, but the idea is still dumb either way).

Not really? Wouldn't that be the time to actually start proposing other solutions to them?

This isn't even enlightened centralist crap, but rather when I see someone wake up from being mentally ill, I don't make it a point to laugh at them.

People did it and were banned. Thus that is already shut down. The only thing left to do is point and laugh for they are reaping their just rewards.

Honestly, it doesn't matter. People at /Donald or /Conservative are likely too far gone. They don't matter. It's the standard people who are waking up 2 hours before their kids, packing them lunch, making them breakfast, and walking them to the bus stop that matter. They're the voters who decide elections. They're the people who need to see how dysfunctional the Republican party is. How corrupt Donald Trump is. And how deplorable state Republicans are, attacking women's rights, trans rights, and parental rights.

On one hand, youre right. Visiting GOP sites just to point and laugh is sad. On the other, they kind of asked for this. There was one moment of clarity in those posts where the guy says our party is a clown show, maybe theres hope for some of them.

Except, that is NOT what they said.

If you can describe something as "you can feel the depression" off of them, that's literally not something to laugh about.

If my family members that actually believed stupid things like this woke up from this stupidity, my first response would be joy, but not to laugh at them, but because they finally woke the fuck up.

Probably, but that's an entirely different thing. Then the bubble ISN'T breaking away. And it's absolutely still the same sort of delusions that they were in from the start. Shifting said delusions isn't actually waking up. It's the same idiocy that was there from the start. Which that is an entirely different beast from what OP was saying.

Right, that's kind of where I'm going. A person having a moment of clarity is a "yes, keep that please." I don't go around reading stupid opinions like that, because I have better shit to do, and yet people don't seem to get my point at all.
