    Remember Jade Helm? They thought Obama was going to use military exercises to take control of Texas back in 2015 or so. Gov. Shitstain even made some comment lending credence to the theories. Now there’s a president using the military to control parts of Texas and they’re cool with it.

      Yep.

      Thats another prime example of them literally doing essentially exactly their paranoid fears.

      Oh howabout FEMA death/concentration camps?

      … Well, FEMA is probably fucking over, but the plan for migrants, suspected migrants, and the homeless… literally is send them all to prison camps, and if we don’t have enough capacity, build more pop up semi permanent structure camps on the outskirts of major cities.

      They became lost, staring into the void, and now are the monsters they dreamed of.

        They were worried about those things because they knew what they would do if they had the power.

          This exactly. It was their guilty fucking conscious driving their narratives.

          Selfish, emotionally immature, fearful idiots believe that everyone else is like them, and is just lying about not being so.

          Therefore, all those ‘other people’ are devious liars who are more crafty then ‘us’, so ‘we’ must outscheme ‘them!’

          … all of this shit is literally scientifically verified.

          The more conservative you are, the more likely your brain make up is to respond out of fear of potential loss, to shut out disconfirming informstion… as opposed to the potential gain of trying or exploring something new, that causes you to confront whether or not you may be wrong.

        The only thing they were afraid of is that someone who wasn’t on “their side” would beat them to it.
