An Iranian woman in Diamond Bar, who supports President Trump, was detained by federal agents due to immigration issues stemming from a past conviction.
said Sahakyan. "I think it will resolve a lot of issues because we’ll know exactly who’s in here for what reasons, even though I miss [my wife] dearly. I think we could have a faster process [where they determine] she’s not a radical, or tied to the crazies, let her out."
He’s rationalizing what’s happening. They are never letting her out. They are going to take her out of the country and she will never be coming back to the USA again. I wonder if that is what it will take for him to change his opinion.
I think you’re right. He’s been conditioned to keep the faith and look past the cult’s obvious failure to keep its promise of protecting him and his; if he only keeps the faith, everything will surely come right. He still believes that surely dear leader would never hurt him. I think his wife getting flown out to Serbia without a trial miiiight just be the wakeup call.
At this point, I think it’s pretty safe to call MAGA a religion, specifically an offshot of American Evangelism. I don’t think you can call its faithful Christians anymore, because while they’re happy to borrow all the trappings and symbols of Christianity, every place where Christ and Trump conflict, Trump wins, including who gets to be Godhead. I’m really not exaggerating, I think a lot of people have walked into an entirely new faith without yet realizing it. If you’re looking for a modern anti-christ, it’s hard to do better than Trump.
This is 100% correct. Evangelicals Christianity, never a beacon of rationality or clarity of doctrine, has now been fully captured by MAGA. There is no functional difference between Christian Nationalism and Evangelical American Christianity.
I worry this is only the beginning. I genuinely believe that Evangelicals will also embrace AI and incorporate it into their beliefs somehow. I also believe Trump will be divinized before his term is up - at least within Evangelical Christian Nationalism.
Yup and they way they talk—with made up terms and repeating eventually meaningless words like woke and DEI—it’s exactly how cults like Heaven’s Gate, Jim Jomes, and Branch Davidians talked and controlled their followers.
I’m not a psychologist but I suspect there’s something amiss here.
Like a lot of these people if he steps back from his loyalty to Trump, he’s kind of admitting that he’s partially responsible for what’s happened.
Clinging to this shaky narrative of how this is actually a good thing allows him to offload the guilt.
I think this might be “delusional” in the clinical sense.
Over time the belief becomes more entrenched. Something like muscle memory but a thought pattern. It will then become the basis for even nuttier thoughts.
It’s sad for him, it’s sadder for her, it’s even sadder for their kids who might me next. It’s just shit all the way down.
I do see a trend with the conservative base here where getting them to admit they are wrong about ANYTHING is like a personal attack and they simply are not equipped with the emotional prowess and maturity needed to learn from it.
It’s a core characteristic they’ve learned from HitlerPig, who learned it from his mentor Roy Cohn, who always said that you never admit that you were wrong or were defeated. Always declare victory, and NEVER, EVER apologize.
HitlerPig lives by that, and his followers have adopted it as well.

Kinda sounds like religions…don’t question, just believe.

Cult, religion, two sides of the same fucking coin.

With all the rapes happening at the ICE Camps, She may end up pregnant on the inbetween or dead honestly.
