It’s True: The Right Wing Is Unhinged and Desperate

Politics • Views: 23,131

Here’s a piece by Brandy Zadrozny looking into the incredibly insane and twisted conspiracy theories and falsehoods going around the right wing: Misinformation by a thousand cuts: Varied rigged election claims circulate.

Among the barrage of baseless or misrepresented claims of election shenanigans: that ballots were invalid, ripped, dumped, late, changed, magically found but also lost; that voters were undocumented, from out of state, using their maiden names to vote twice or dead; that the calls were rigged by both the machines and software used to count and report the votes and by the news organizations that called the race. And then there are the far-out claims made popular in QAnon communities, including one that “non-radioactive isotope watermarks” were the key to a military sting operation that would reveal how Democrats had won votes with counterfeit ballots. A video of a woman inspecting her ballot for such a watermark has been viewed 560,000 times on YouTube.

This is what happens when a society neglects proper education and attempts to actively suppress higher learning. Americans don’t know how anything works, they don’t care, and as a result are susceptible to lies told by whomever they feel like believing at the moment.

re: #168 Targetpractice

There’s an old Chinese legend about a poison made from sealing venomous snakes, scorpions, and centipedes into a jar and allowing them to devour each other, then extracting the concentrated poison from whatever survives.

That, in a nutshell, is what happens when wingnuts cease to have a target for their venom. They turn on each other and drive others out until the last shitheel standing atop the smouldering wreck is so vile and detestable that nobody wishes to be associated with them.

Staight credit for the gu reference. One of my favorite folkloric stories, though I first encountered the Japanese version (kodoku).

And it’s such a great metaphor.

I’m trying to find results to see what the make up of the legislature will be, but can’t find anything easily digestible. Does look like the Dems may increase their majority in the Senate, Assembly will probably stay about the same numbers (hard to be much better than 60-20).

As a side note, it is a bit absurd to me that a state with 39m people in it have a legislature with 80 in the lower house and 40 in the upper house.

Unfortunately, thanks to the EC, total count is irrelevant in determining the president. It is infuriating, though, that a candidate could have a landslide victory in terms of vote and then lose because of the vagaries of the EC.

Hopefully, nationwide, the final counts will help Democrats in down ballot races.

Honestly, you could round up every Republican elected official (state legislature and higher), and every Republican donor of more than $10K a year and toss them in prison for unspecified crimes and have a negligible rate of imprisoning the innocent.

Of course you can’t really do that, but it is unsettling to realize just how corrupt the GOP is.

The Calley case was featured in a WaPo story last year.

“…As Calley appealed, the military justice system reduced his sentence to 20 years, then 10. By late 1974, he was free on bail. Two years later, he was paroled. In all, he spent just a few months behind bars at Fort Leavenworth.

Now, President Trump is considering granting pardons to servicemen accused of war crimes in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.”

Yeah. He’s a guy who has loyally served a President who said I like people who don’t get captured. I have two young cousins in the service right now. Grenell only cared about the facade of him respecting veterans and didn’t even bother to see that the man he RTed an image of was a war criminal but why should he complain at all given his boss’s embrace of people like Eddie Gallagher.

I don’t think I’m translating the Rosetta Stone or anything, but it seems to me that the importance of superficiality and sentimentality to these people is a significant tell. They just can’t be deep or feel deeply about others.

It’s why Trump always uses hyperbole to talk about veterans rather than talk about individuals and their stories. He just sees they’ve killed people and that gets his juices going. No concept of sacrifice at all.

Murder is the one crime Trump has probably not committed. Therefore he is in awe of it.

re: #333 Targetpractice

Faux is so desperate to get out of the doghouse with MAGAts that they’re entertaining on live TV the idea of red state legislatures willfully overturning the electoral results in order to stage a coup. And instead of identifying this as a nightmare scenario, they’re acting as though it’s a totally valid way to install a president.

And it still wouldn’t matter in most red states.

WY has three GOP electors, UT has 6, &c. They can be angry as they want and yet it doesn’t change their state totals.

The only places it matters is PA, GA, AZ, and NE. So who are these mad voters going to attack? Their own Republican legislators?

re: #27 KGxvi

I’m trying to find results to see what the make up of the legislature will be, but can’t find anything easily digestible. Does look like the Dems may increase their majority in the Senate, Assembly will probably stay about the same numbers (hard to be much better than 60-20).

As a side note, it is a bit absurd to me that a state with 39m people in it have a legislature with 80 in the lower house and 40 in the upper house.

We have the smallest state legislature of any state. The Nebraska Unicameral has forty-nine senators (30R, 18D, 1I, pay $12,000/year) for a population of 1.93 million people.

A law limits the number of legislative districts to forty-nine. For several years now there have been attempts to repeal it to expand the Unicameral, because as the population goes up the state has to keep eliminating rural districts to make more urban districts, resulting in some really large districts out here in the west.

Don’t have a photo from my father’s 2 year hitch (53 - 55, medic, stateside) so here’s a picture of me at Ft Knox. We were out doing some physically hard thing when all of a sudden they marched us over to a building, had us take off our BDU tops, and slid on these backless uniform fakes so we’d appear to be in Class A’s.

Probably my least favorite portrait of my life but my mother loved it.

My grandfather was not a perfect man; he had his faults, and passed away at a relatively young age from pancreatic cancer in 1990. My mother remembers him extremely fondly. He was a jack of all trades, the local fisherman, who intimidated my dad by asking him if he wanted to go out on the Gulf of Mexico in a tiny little aluminum fishing boat. (He’s the big-ass muthafucka on the left in my picture.) I have some of his tools and a lot of his personality and skill, and his height. I know little about his service except that the picture was taken in a hangar in South England, either in late 1944 or early 1945. I have wondered, on occasion, how many of his friends he saw take flight across the Channel who didn’t come back to where his wrenches could repair them for another go-round.

Shit, I have relatives who died at the hands of the Nazis in Europe. My side of the family didn’t serve in the military though my dad did do a stint with the US Navy’s Naval Engineering Command in Connecticut designing stuff landside before transitioning to the job he held for the rest of his professional life.

I didn’t think I’d need to fight Nazis, but here we are. We’re fighting fucking Nazis and they’re here in the US from the WH on down. They call themselves Republicans, but make no mistake, they’re fucking Nazis. They’re fascists, white supremacists, and are pushing all the levers of power to stay in power from here on forward.

This is a massive problem and it’s not limited to Trump; Kushner and others will also sell state secrets. Even out of the White House, US nat sec is destroyed. And that outcome was inevitable the moment Trump was installed in power.

You place an enemy asset in the highest office of the land — an agent who now has access to the most sensitive information about our friends and adversaries world-wide — an agent who can grant security clearance to anyone his little heart desires — and you render our nation powerless before all who wish us harm.
