I have family members totally brainwashed by the Q crap. They're so deluded that they actually believed that JFK Jr. was going to appear at the last night of the Republican KKKlanbake and announce to the world that "The Storm" was here and there would be mass arrests of Democrats.

They also believe that Oprah and Tom Hanks run the Hollywood pedophile ring, they were arrested and sent to Guantanamo where they are facing execution. Oh and Trump replaced them with doubles to infiltrate the pedophile rings.

You cannot reason with them. They didn't just fall down the rabbit hole, they fell into a black hole and merged with the Singularity of Stupid.

I put the blame on the Republican Party's 24/7 Bullshit Machine which was created in the 70s through increasingly right wing media, right wing preachers, hate radio and the endless pushing of Republican disinformation via The "Silicon Six" as Sacha Baron Cohen posted out in his remarks.

We must restore the Equal Time Provision, Fairness Doctrine rule and reinstate severe media ownership limits at the FCC breaking up the five corporations that are the key cogs in the Republican Bullshit Machine to start. We also need to consider adopting British-style libel laws with teeth because the First Amendment doesn't include a freedom to lie just as it does not allow someone to cry "Fire" in a crowded theater. That's a start.

Next we have to stand up to the right wing bullies and hold them accountable and that includes the thugs in the Trump administration.
