Got a sad update. An old friend went off the deep end after 2016, severing contact with everyone who wasn’t a TFG follower. She then lost her job, followed by her wife and kids due to her sudden and hostile extremism.
Found out today she’s continuing down the rabbit hole, won’t let her (new) kids see Little Mermaid because of a non-binary character, and is now a rabid flat earther.
Made me very sad.
Have walked away from several long-term friends who went insane.
@LnzyHou @SSNBubblehead @kay_dub Oh I know how that is. I lost a long time friend to that MAGA disease. I put up with her crazy talk until she said Democrats and Biden were kidnapping children and eating them. That was the last straw! And she's an RN, can you believe that?!
@Resister_Grandma @SSNBubblehead @kay_dub
Utterly horrifying
@Resister_Grandma Horrible.
Daughter's EX-boyfriend became one of the "they eat children" crowd. He didn't last long.
@kay_dub @Resister_Grandma @LnzyHou @SSNBubblehead don't tell me he was eaten! Although it would certainly be a storybook ending for that crowd.

I don’t think any amount of spice or sauces could disguise the maga smell, much less the taste.
@Resister_Grandma @LnzyHou @SSNBubblehead @kay_dub I wish I couldn't believe it.
@Resister_Grandma @LnzyHou @SSNBubblehead @kay_dub
I have to wonder how ppl can be so gullible and then become an RN or a Dr but recently I noticed a ton of RNs were having their degrees rescinded/ retracted or something of that nature.
(GA or FL if I recall correctly)
@Sr0bi @Resister_Grandma @LnzyHou @SSNBubblehead @kay_dub thank goodness at least some of them are being disbarred, or whatever you call it for nurses. There might be a few doctors that need the same treatment. I've noticed that many nurses around here smoke. I know it's hard to quit, but they know what they need to do.
@kay_dub Willful ignorance may very well backfire, it's no guarantee the kids won't grow up to think differently and despise her. Bold move cotton.
@kay_dub
People who think that the earth is flat have never spent multiple seasons between 45 and 90 degree latitudes. It becomes harder to escape the facts up there.
@kay_dub
It is sad to watch someone slide so far down the hole you have no idea who they are. Have a friend who fell too. Very sad.
@kay_dub I have an older brother (a college grad with a Masters in Finance) and several friends who are college grads and they too went down the MAGAt route and got more and more insane as time went on….so I had to cut them off completely too. Wished TFG would go away for good so these people would stop drinking his kool aid and get their brains back
@kay_dub Once you fall into that particular rabbit hole, it's impossible to escape.
Then, you end up in jail.
