re: #25 Killgore Trout

There’s nothing that can be done. We’ve tried it here with very little success. The only thing to do is mock them. They’ll eventually feel pretty stupid when they come to their senses but there’s not much that can be done to help them at this point.

But mocking a derision seems to only strengthen their resolve. That we “don’t get it.”

The self assurance goes hand in hand with the paranoia. If any tea partiers read my question, they would be sure to sniff out a vast conspiracy hoping to strip them of power.
