The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is unveiling its first major TV and digital campaign of the 2022 cycle with a focus on Republicans who have refused to stand up to QAnon conspiracies that featured prominently in the Capitol riot last month.
I’m glad for the loud pushback, too, but I am still gobsmacked at the number of gullibles we have in the country. These crazy conspiracies were always with us, and I know social media has helped the susceptible find one another, but I can’t believe on some level we have this many people invested in sheer, unadulterated insanity.
The effort comes as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) — a promoter of QAnon fantasies — painted herself as a victim amid a growing onslaught of criticism for incendiary and false remarks on a broad spectrum of issues.
FIFY: there’s no sustainable evidence in support of these imaginings so, calling them ‘theories’ is nothing but flattery.
It’s as if a giant cloud has engulfed vast numbers of Americans, so that their minds are clouded and they believe the most ridiculous ideas: conspiracies, lie, frauds, and scams.
All I can do is hope that the cloud lifts and that they recover soon.
When Biden formally introduced Buttigieg as his nominee for Transportation secretary in December, he called him “one of the smartest people you will ever meet.”
I totally agree with Biden. From the first time I saw him speak I was blown away at his intellect. His ability to make things understandable is really something, too. Not all people as smart as he is have the ability to make things clear like he does.
If one doesn’t believe in science, one doesn’t believe in the proper use of the term “theory”. They are, at best, failed hypotheses (tested and debunked), but more honestly, exercises in magical thinking.
But again, don’t expect any changes in terminology from the anti-fact crowd.
Most of those extreme Christians are steeped in white nationalism and rely on mistranslated bibles (which gave us the taken before the apocalypse among others) and equate goodness with wealth. The prosperity gospel is a big lie and anti-christian and like Rev. Barber said - it amounts to heresy . It is way pass time for Left to retake their moral authority
