The term "deprogramming" comes to mind.

Normal psychological, emotional, moral self-righting may not suffice for individuals who have been so deeply programmed.

@ceorl @MLClark victims aligning with their perpetrators comes to mind as well.

True, I am actually suggesting a compassionate healing rehabilitation process. Not that it is likely to come about in any practical sense.

@ceorl the best opportunity for a national wake up call was in the weeks following J6. Biden pissed away the moment in an apparent bid to foster some sort of 1980s style return to bipartisanship. The lack of accountability for political enablers has only minimized the severity of the event in the public eye.

@CanisPundit @ceorl @MLClark I mean that's one view. Or one might say that McConnell, Graham, and similar GOP folk pissed away the moment to draw back from the brink. I well remember Linds speaking after Congress re-convened the night of January 6; he sounded a little drunk and a lot rattled and he said basically, "enough already." A moment of clarity! -- and gone within days. So... who pissed what away, there?

@agunn I completely agree they had a chance to right the Right. A sad fact is Republican gerrymandering to select their voters has left them with a regressed mess as the Republican base. To vote to remove Trump in impeachment episode 2 would appropriately throw the GOP into minority status for a couple of decades. They put party, power, and personal gain ahead of country.
