I know there are some people who will never get it but I fear there are way more than what we think. We are liked minded here but are we living in a bubble here like DC and Hollyweird but in our own way?
Today I was invited to a brunch at a good friends home. There were about twenty people there. They are black and they are very Christian and loving people. There was only one other white person there. I am explaining this so you understand the mindset.
I never talk politics around them because I am positive they are liberal Democrats.
In the living room they had on MSNBC so I was definitely not sitting in there. As I was walking through they were reporting on Fani Willis being able to stay on the case and they were all excited.
I was sitting in the kitchen with my friends sister and brother. The people at the party are on their late 60's to mid 70's.
I don't recall the conversation but the sister said to her brother who was talking to me I don't like to talk politics. She said to me once I said something to my family and it got really ugly so I don't talk about it anymore.
The brother asked me if I like Trump. I stated as I was laughing I don't really want to talk about this. He said well are you and I said yes I like Trump because I think he has the people's best interests at heart.
He said he's a racist. He said did you know his father's a racist? I said to him I don't know about his father but Trump did a lot for the black community. He said he does that for show. Then I asked him have you ever heard Biden when he was young what he said about the black people? He said he never said anything. I said there's plenty of video but there and you are never going to see that on TV. I said you do know the Democrats where the party of the Klu Klux Klan. He said no they are not. I said how about Robert Byrd he was the head of the Klu Klux klan. I said you do know why the Civil War was fought because Lincoln freed the slaves and the Southern Democrats wanted to keep their slaves. He shook his head no.
He said you kniw what MAGA means. I said yes it means make America great again. He said you know why Trump says that? I said yes. He said he wants to return to slavery. That is what he means. I said no he wants to make America unified and great be being independent. He wants us to be strong and bring manufacturing back to be independent. I told him thus hads absolutely nothing to do with slavery.
I said you better do some research to really find out what's going on not what you're being told because the media is lying to you. His sister said this is why I don't bring it up because everybody yelled at me. Then I asked him I just want you to think about this why does everybody hate this man so much that is in the government.
Then his sister brought up to me about Ukraine and she couldn't understand why Putin wanted to hurt everybody. I told her I had some insight in that since the girl I work with was born and raised in Russia and came here when she was in her twenties and her family is still in Russia.
I told her the reason he went into Ukraine was because the Russians that were there wanted Putin to save them. I told her that there were biolabs there that he destroyed. I said she is not a fan of Putin but she is backing him 100% on this. The media wants to make Putin the boogeyman but I told her the US government is involved in all that is going on in Ukraine so they just want to blame it on Putin.
She said now I'm glad I met somebody that could tell me more than what I was listening to on the news. I told her the worst thing to do is listen to any of the news stations because they all lie.
The one thing I noticed is no one brought up anything about Trump's affairs or anything like that it was all about him being a racist.
This is how effective the media is in brainwashing the masses.
Thought you would want to know my experience today to give you room for thought.
How infuriating and disturbing for you. I would never be able to go be around that group of people ever again. However I see it as an ignorant libtard issue. That group is democrats, so... I think White liberals also think trump is a racist. Am I right, or no?
You do not understand. They are the kindest, funniest most fun loving people you would ever meet. My husband and I have been blessed to meet them.
You missed the point. I was trying to convey how brainwashed the masses are from the media.
I believe the sister is a Trump fan that is why she said they yelled at her.
The brother I believe now has some room to think. He was not nasty ar angry and just maybe I put a crack in the foundation.
What a world out there; I don't spend time around groups of people who would think I'm a fool for believing as I do that Trump is the way through this quagmire our country is in, as much as any mortal human could be.
I don't entirely trust my own temper.
They are the kindest, most loving group until they find out you support Trump. Just like every other kind and loving group of left wing imbeciles out there. As I told my mothers boyfriend when he pulled the "wHeRe DiD yOu HeAr ThAt".....it's not my job to make YOU less ignorant. If I know it, why don't you. Sucks you were in that situation. But in my experience, those groups are an "I support Trump" away from becoming unhinged. Always the retirees who sit in front of their TVs all damn day too. Sad.
Sorry you are incorrect.
They have no ill feelings and as I said his sister supports Trump.
There was no arguing and when I left every one hugged me and all invited me back.
The owner of the house who is our friend said of course she will be back we invite her everywhere.
Please stop with the hate when people disagree.
There's a difference between disagreeing and being willfully ignorant. I'm glad that you experienced a group that didn't go completely unhinged or become extremely condescending with your statements. What I described to you is NOT hate, from me anyway. I'm not the one blocking me on social media, talking behind my back, etc. What I described to you is me not backing down whatsoever from people who are so sure of themselves in their ignorance that their arrogance shines through. Throwing the word "hate" around is doing the same thing that the media they worship does. I'm glad you said your piece and can go back to "red pill" another day.
Thanks for the explanation.
Even the ones that are normal and good people.....somehow it's always about race in the end to them. When nobody even said anything about that and most of us couldn't care less about race when it comes to our friends. They're still brainwashed if they're watching that shit
They always resort to race thanks to Obama and the media.
Did you read where he denied Biden being a racist?
I had not seen that! Amazing. On video throughout the years being a total racist and people will believe the homo bc hope and change. Jesus save us
SMH.
I believe God placed you there for a reason GG.. you planted a seed! Praying it will grow! 🙏
Thank you.
This is what we all need to be doing more of. Have the courage to walk with those of all backgrounds and courageously (and lovingly) explaining the truth. This is the only way.
Yes we are in a bubble here, but maybe in a good way, so long as we use this bubble to regroup and gain understanding as we go out into the normieverse to spread truth and unifying, thought provoking information
Thank you this is the point I was making.
When I said we were in a bubble that is what I meant. We are like minded but you need to reach those who are not awake.
THIS IS A GREAT POST!
My mothers 3 brother, all as white as sour cream, say that same dumb shit. They are over the top Trump haters. We were playing golf last summer and I jumped into that shark tank. I asked them to give me ONE … just ONE example of Trump being racist. Instead of any example, I got the standard Marxist defense: “if you do t get it by now you never will”. I AGAIN asked for them to educate me because I truly didn't know, and just want to know what it is they know that I don't. CRICKETS. Instead they wanted to avoid the topic altogether.
It is truly the demonic media that keeps the robots basic programming from any reality updates. That, and the deep fear of cognitive dissonance and then having to admit they were suckered.
*just one example. And that right here is evidence these people don't have basic intelligence. If all they can do is parrot there's no saving them. Because ego gets in the way and they think they're superior. You can't fix stupid
It blows my mind that people don't know the dem party is responsible for all the racial bs in our history. I knew that back when I was in elementary school. And the big "switch" theory.....lol. Remind them that Carter, Clinton and Obama all carried the south well after this imaginary "switch" and that Strom Thurmond was really the only one to switch parties back then.
With liberals, I don’t think it’s enough to say “the media”. It’s better to say “the corporate media”. They’ve been brainwashed to think all corporations = bad, so box them in with that. Keep tying their beliefs and opinions back to corporations. Bonus points if you do your research ahead of time and can tell them which conglomerate owns their favorite network, and everything else they own. Liberals tend to get submissive when you do this, because what are they going to do? Defend corporations? They have no talking point for this.
Another good tactic is to take the high ground and point out that the corporations seek to divide us for ratings and clicks. Keep going back to this. It boxes them and neutralizes their ability to argue with you. And it short circuits their trained hatred because if they start losing it and being mean, it literally proves the point that these corporations don’t care about us, and want us fighting for their own wealth and power.
The only move they have at this point is to attack FoxNews and say that’s a corporation too. At that point, agree and amplify. Throw Fox under the bus as another corporate conglomerate that’s doing the exact same thing. This really disarms them. They might try to drag you down into the mud to argue over the latest corporate media outrage, but don’t take that bait. Keep going big picture. The people are more unified than they want us to be and it’s these corporations that want us divided.
So far I’ve had good success with this strategy. You don’t even have to get bogged down with Trump. Get them questioning the media and that helps us. Get them questioning their hysteria and outrage and that helps us. Often times at this point a liberal will want to show they aren’t a slave to these corporations and will start offering their own small red pills. Like maybe men competing in women’s sports, or Booster number 7. Now you’ve got them disagreeing with some small portion of the globalist agenda and that’s a start.

Brilliant! I believe this would actually be the most effective way to make a Bernie bro's head explode. I don't know if it would work on right wing sheep though. Unfortunately, I know very many conservative people that refuse to wake up.
And to the original question OP asked? Yes, I believe we are in a bubble. Hopefully it's growing everyday though. I see conservative personalities becoming more popular everyday, and I know a lot of people here are in those comment sections nudging conservative thinkers to wake the rest of the way up.
Thank you. You understand what I was trying to convey.
I truly believe he listened and maybe he will do some research.
Actually I spent the entire afternoon talking with him. We ate together and shared many things. He isn't a dumb person. He is into to herbal supplements and is awake in many ways.
He was talking about them disrupting the internet but he wasn't quite there as 5o why.
Thanks Fren.
They are intellectually blind (the 3 acts of the intellect are to understand (what), judge (whether), and reason (why)). You ask them what is a woman they just stare blankly at you like a dumb cow. They have completely lost the use of their reason because by their sins they have handed themselves over not to the God of all Truth but to the god of lies and now they live in the lies. Only prayer, fasting, and penances on their behalf will be able to break through their blindness, no amount of reasoning or evidence can convince them. Brute force spiritual warfare is the only option.
I believe that spiritual warfare is real, how do I do it though?
Through prayer and evangelism. Brute force simply means unwavering in the truth and not compromising it. The truth is what eradicates the devil and his cohorts.
Thank You
Traditionally it is prayer, fasting, suffering, almsgiving, growing in virtue, offering the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, mental prayer / meditation amongst other things. I come from a Catholic background so we have a very rich tradition of spiritual warfare.
The bread and butter for a Catholic is the daily Rosary, weekly fasting, and offering up your suffering / mortification (i.e. denying yourself) as penances. This past Lent I've been doing a more rigorous fast (1 meal) + abstaining (no meat) for 40 days with Sundays excepted.
If you're not of that tradition, then I think offering up a weekly fast + abstaining, for example on Fridays having only a single meal with no flesh meat. You can reverently meditate on the Bible for an hour daily. Recite a Psalm a day as an offering of your time to God. You can mortify your senses by eliminating sugar from your diet. Little ways where you can conquer yourself and withdraw from the pleasures of the world so the Kingdom of God has a stronger foothold in your soul.
I would say a fast / abstaining routine + scripture meditation and offering that up for your friends / family would be a good start. If you're not too wary of Mary, then look into getting a Rosary and start praying that.

Thank You
These are all extremely religious people. My friend is a deacon in the church.
They know the Bible inside and out. They live by it.
His words were only one person is in control and that is God.
You have to understand they were brainwashed by years of the DEMONrat party and media.
Well are they more of the liberal Christians? The kind that think it's okay to use porn, masturbate, use birth control, abort, condone gay marriage, fornicate / sex before marriage? Because if that's the case, they are dead in their sin though they profess to know Christ. The brainwashing is strong but sin makes that susceptibility even stronger.
No they are not. They live by the Bible and they don't condone filth or gay relationships.
they actually believe contraception is a sin and do not use birth control?
I didn't say this did I?
Noice.
You sound like you are in a good position to be dropping red pills. Try to save some normies for the rest of us.
From Rosa Parks to dropping black unemployment rates to freeing several rappers on bogus charges and on and on Trump has delivered.
As far as being in a bubble here, no way. I have encountered awake folks who have never heard of GAW or Q, both black and white.
I think people misunderstood what I meant about being in a bubble on here.
What I meant was we are all like minded are we not seeing what's really happening out there in the world among other communities.
I hope I can in time drop more red pills.
I’m in Canada. I’m under no illusions the vast majority of people are fast asleep. Something dramatic needs to happen or this will never end.
Amen.
think we're in a bubble because we're like minded, joining together, and that's why Q tells us to read the Bible. to understand the end time harvest and how Jesus and the angels are separating the wheat from the tares. some of the people in our daily lives are not what they appear to be. Jesus also said there will be a lot of family troubles at the end, so the 'script' is playing out according to his plan & the Bible.
These people are very religious. They know the Bible inside and out.
Our friends are deacons. I become friends with them because of their live for God.
Please don't give up. A number of very liberal people now say the hate both Biden and Trump, and don't want to vote for either of them. As more red pills get dropped, the needle slowly moves, and more people awaken. Not as fast as we want, sure, but it's definitely moving. Hang in there.
I think I gave this man enough to think about and maybe he will go do his due diligence.
Like I said his sister obviously likes Trump because she said everyone yelled at her.
Maybe with what I said to him and his sister's influence he'll start to wake up.
My point was there's a lot of communities like this that need to be told although some people are waking up.
Agreed!
Sometimes a good response to opinions like that is just to ask "Well in your opinion what is the most racist thing he has done?" If they falter then that ought to show them something. If they have false reasons then those can be answered with true facts.
I live in liberalville so I have a lot of experience with this kind of thing. Once during the 2016 debates I asked a black guy on the bus if he watched it and what did he think. He said he thought clinton won and the best time in history for blacks was when bill clinton was president. I mentioned that bill had the good fortune to preside over the tech boom. I talked about the bush/clinton cocaine connection and he was shocked and said it sounds crazy. It was like I know it does. Just look up a documentary on it and see what you think.
See you understand my point there's a lot of people we need to be talking with that have no clue.
When I said Trump was not racist his comment was his father is. He said nobody should be in the white house that is racist.
Then I told him about by then the Democrats and he said he never heard that.
I said that's because the media will never tell you but there's tons of video out there if you go look.
Next time, maybe instead of trying to argue why Trump isn’t a racist, which will always seem defensive, go more inquisitive. Ask them why Trump has more black support than any Republican President since Abraham Lincoln? Now it’s on THEM to make excuses. And what are they going to say? Probably they are all “Uncle Toms”. At that point I would ask, “So 35% of the black population are - I think this is a bigoted term, but it’s yours - you think they are all so-called ‘Uncle Toms’? That’s millions and millions of black people who are just as smart and informed and passionate as you. Why are you taking away their agency like that?”
With liberals, you always have to set the frame that YOU are the one with the bigger heart, YOU are the one who cares more, YOU are the one who seeks to be more open-minded and understanding. This is what they pride themselves on so take that position for yourself. THEY are the ones slandering millions of black people with a bigoted term, not you. YOU are trying to understand these people. YOU see them as real people with agency, not some demeaning caricature.
And always do this with as much true kindness in your voice and heart as possible. Don’t be passive aggressive. Don’t try to score points. Don’t try to shame them. I know they are frustrating but look at them as friends who have been brainwashed by probably the most elaborate and extended political propaganda campaign of all time. If your energy is truly kind, people WILL sense that. But keep putting their positions back on them. If you try to debunk their laundry list of FAKE NEWS, it never works, as Scott Adams points out. Even if you debunk every claim, and get them to concede each one, all they do at the end of it is loop back to the first one. And all anyone remembers from the conversation is the fake claims. So you want to change the whole frame on it. Instead you want everyone who participated in the conversation thinking back going, “Yeah, it WAS kind of obnoxious how Joe called all those black people Uncle Toms. Why would he say that. It was pretty rude.”
I was not combative or argumentative. We were talking and I was making points.
He was trying to insist MAGA meant back to slavery. That is a media talking point.
I explained what is meant by it. I asked him why he thinks he is racist. He said his father was.
I said that Trump did many things for the black community with examples. He said it was all for show.
Sounds real fuckin depressing. I have determined that 90% of people have lost independent thought. People are retarded assholes and alas- it appears we be fucked. Kek. Hopes this helps! Remember - always look at the bright side of things- this shit ass mortal existence doesn't last forever. Oh wait. 😂😐💀
Hey I am trying to red pill.
You're doing right fren, i'm just being a cynical asshole kek.
Kek.
Yeah, I just got off the phone with a former assistant that runs an entire office for a major bank. Very smart and kind gal, but she gets her news from John Oliver.... ...
That is my point.
They listen to the media like they are God.
I think this is the big one. Media replaced God (or the scriptures) for people.
I think the TV also replaces fathers/husbands, who are supposed to provide leadership for the family. My guess wild guess is that there is a huge correlation between watching TV at dinner instead of talking with family and being left or processive.
Smart people are a dime a dozen. Smart people are capable of processing information. We on the other hand, have the information to process.
Your friends might be nice and kind but if they allow the media to think for them, they're nice, kind, and stupid.
I do realize that we are in a bubble here and on other pro POTUS sites. It's why I'm leaving all the political mess in God's hands because people have made up their minds on both sides and very few will change them.
On looking at primate results I was surprised to see the MAGA turn out was as strong as it was...
Are we an echo chamber? No because the mods delete duplicate posts.
This is what I think of as a bubble room (and the liberal bubbles are going to find out what is at the top sooner rather than later!)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eo1i053WRMI
An “echo chamber” isnt a place where the same thing keeps being posted - it’s a place where alternate viewpoints are disallowed.
This place is indeed an echo chamber. That’s not inherently a bad thing, as long as you’re mindful of that fact.
Echo chambers are generally considered bad because they impart the falsehood that more people agree with you than really do, and stupid people tend to believe their own anecdotal evidence.
OP is on point.
I would counter that an echo chamber is somewhere people echo your ideas back at you in true sycophant mass hypnosis style.
Well yes, exactly. That has nothing to do with whether the mods delete duplicate posts or not.
Have a nice evening!
I think my meaning on being in a bubble was lost.
I was trying to say we are all talking about the same things on here but when you go into these other communities they aren't seeing what we are seeing.
I wasn't trying to be demeaning in any way.
A point to watch out for. Our work here is to sort out the truth from the fiction to help each other and those around us. The second mission is to red pill the confused. The more indoctrinated they are, the more you have to space out the pills. The best ones to start with are the proven liberal hoaxes and lies.
Thank you.
I am doing my part.
I think i piqued his interest.
No I got the bubble boy thing. I was just twisting your bubble's tail a bit.
OK thanks for explaining.
Ask them to be specific.
Trump is a racist? Of course but can you be specific?
You don't have to ARGUE. Ask them to be specific. They soon run out of things to say and they quickly change subject.
The entire conversation caught me off guard.
I made good points but I will remember that point if the occasion arises in the future.
Of course we're in a bubble. That's what the problem is with an echo chamber. That's why we are encouraged to spread the wealth of knowledge, information and change minds away from here.
That's why we're digital soldiers.
As for the stuff that happened, everyone needs a different kind of nudging and not everyone gets there at the same time. Some people never will.
I still firmly believe the number will be higher than 4-6% from my own experiences however.
Thank you this is my point.
They’re literally brainwashed, I mean seriously, they believe Trump is more senile than Biden and they completely deny all the insane shit Biden has said in his past and there’s a fucking lot. Their opinions are served to them on a platter of emotional manipulation, they don’t think, they feel. Everything they believe is filtered through “is this offensive? If it is it cannot possibly be true” and they’re told what is and isn’t offensive. If it’s not that it’s “what opinion will my peers most approve of”
This is exactly correct however I believe the sister is a Trump supporter by her comments.
This is the point I was trying to convey. The media has so brainwashed them but I believe his interest was piqued.
Yeah, I don't waste my time trying to educate or debate with them anymore, it takes professionals months to talk people out of cults and I'm not up for it. I want reality to kick their asses hard and then we can talk.
If Mr. Trump had an agenda to enslave black's again ??? wouldn't it be MASA ? You can show a LIBTARD 85% of all the TRUTH's and Facts of Demorat Corruption, and they will REFUSE to accept the reality. As Johnny Cockring stated in the OJ trial - - - "IF" , da glubb dudnt fit - you must acquit" ! You could show them security video of OJ turning Nicole into a PEZ dispenser - THEY wont turn. Some things you can never change.
As I posted before it is years of DEMONrat and media brainwashing.
He did say only one person is on control and that is God.
( I need to do this - for myself , as well !!! ) Type out a ten point bulletin "FACT" spread sheet , and print out 20 copies to hand out to "Knowledge Challenged Libtards" ; * The Confederate Army were all Democrats. * Dixycrats / Southern Democrats / The LEFT - started the KKK * Abraham Lincoln was the very FIRST republican president ( then Dem's hated ole Abe , as much as current Dem's hate Mr. Trump now. ) and he was the man behind freeing enslaved African people in America. * The Southern Democrat's were the engineer's and perpetrators of the Jim Crow / Segregation laws. * Republicans were the folks behind all "Civil Rights" movements - and Demorats opposed and voted unanimously AGAINST any and all liberties for Blacks. * ( most ) Slaving Ships and slave auction houses were owned and controlled by "Jewish Democrat's" !!! * "MOST" Jewish Congressmen & Senators , hold "Dual Citizenship" ( combined USA & Israeli Passports - which is illegal ! ) which tells you a lot about their character . . . - the list can go on . . . "KEEP EM DUMB" - "KEEP THEM on the PLANTATION" ! for the next 200 years !
Exactly.
He shook his head no when I stated the southern DEMONrats were the ones in the KKK and wanted to keep slaves and this was the reason for the Civil Ear.
He looked shocked when I told him about Senator Bryd.
Maybe he will investigate. He isn't a dumb person and I believe he may. These people are not the combative people wr hear about.
Because I am not a debater - about anything - I would never let myself get pulled into these conversations. If someone wants to ask me or discuss with me how I feel and what I've learned, then a one on one in a neutral setting is what I would agree to. From what I've seen, they want to bait people, they want to be right no matter who it hurts and they will push others to agree with them. They don't believe evidence because it means they would be wrong or it would help, in this case, President Trump. Full disclosure will really shake these people!
This was not a by any means a baited situation. Only this gentleman and his sister where talking to me nobody else was involved.
He didn't attack he was just discussing. His sister was obviously a Trump supporter from her comments that I wrote.
We need to talk to anyone who asks and wants to listen.
Sadly black Americans are willfully placing chains around their necks. They don’t even know it either. They support the very people who despise them. Many are waking up. But it’s amazing how brainwashed black people are to their former slave masters.
This is why arrests need to/ needed to happen to wake up the masses. Lay out the proof in a court of law. Including traitorous media members.
I agree.
Congratulations, GGRockz for keeping your cool and engaging. That's the best way to drop red pills that they can pick up if they choose to.
Thank you.
You were in their black, everything is about race bubble. Yes seems like we are in our own bubble. I recently finally was unbanned on X. After a few days scrolling, and talking some mad shit (lol), it is crazy how many insane leftists are still so dumb. Every other post is shit talking trump or whites. Even by white people virtue signaling. Opened my eyes after being on here for so long and not in there.
These folks have a serious case of Mockingbird Media Syndrome. They are friends so you can't combat them obviously, but one thing I found helpful (having friends much like your own it seems), is referring them to alternate sources so they can see it (or Trump himself) from a different perspective. It can be very, very simple stuff too. Like:
No wars during Trump v. 2 during Potatoehead
Gas under $2 during Trump v. +$5 during Potatoehead
Cost of eggs, etc
Also, disqualifying MSM as much as possible so these ppl start thinking for themselves rather than mockingbird
Yes, and don’t say “alternative media” because they’ve been brainwashed against the words “alt” and “alternative” now. They basically hear “KKK” if you say “alternative” anything.
Instead say “independent” media. There is no brainwashing around the word “independent”. It’s actually the opposite: for a liberal, “independent” means good. It’s like “organic” or “natural” or “green”. And it would be tricky for the corporate media to smear the word “independent”, which I think is why they didn’t even try, and instead went with “alternative”.
Thank you.
To an extent, yes, I believe quite a few people here are living in a bubble. I don't think that it's the worst thing in the world for most, but it's definitely something people should at least be aware of.
Just look at how proud so many people here are of never reading any sort of MSM or of having no liberal friends or family. The refusal to read/watch any sort of media that might conflict with their beliefs is the most concerning, I think.
I think we should know what the enemy is doing at all times. Knowing what they're up to doesn't magically make you believe the same as they do. Sometimes it seems like people think liberalism is contagious and they'll catch it from reading MSM.
Another issue that is really concerning is how upset people get whenever someone disagrees with their opinion or points out they're wrong about something. I think this might be the worst thing that happens when people live in bubbles/echochambers. They just become incapable of dealing with differing opinions. This is fine for hermits, but anyone that is going to try to redpill others really needs to learn how to control their emotions in conversations where there might be some pushback. Otherwise they're just going to come off as angry or unstable and they'll just push whoever they were trying to redpill even further away.
Not quite as serious as what I just mentioned, but something that happens much more frequently is when someone gets caught in some "gotcha" question asked by a liberal/leftist/neverTrumper.
This is particularly annoying because of how often it happens, and it could be avoided if people would just pay attention to MSM.
I think it's the Daily Show that constantly sends someone to Trump rallies to interview MAGA folk, and they'll set up a question just to make people look stupid. There are several YouTube channels that do the same thing RebelHQ is a big one that does this.
They'll set people up like asking them if they would vote for someone who said they would take guns away before doing due process, and when the MAGA person gets all riled up, saying of course they wouldn't, the interviewer shows them a video of President Trump saying just that after that nightclub shooting.
I really wish that people would think twice before doing any sort of on camera interview, because to put it bluntly, there are some really stupid, uninformed people out there that really make us look fucking retarded.
Now, I'm obvioisly not saying every MAGA person is like this, but there are too many as there is and it's like they send out signals to every liberal with a camera and YouTube channel.
Thank you for a handshake account you understand.
People need to talk to others to help them realize what is going on.
He wasn't nasty in anyway but he listened. Maybe he is intrigued enough to look.
He did say only one person is in control and that is God.
Thanks for that fren, so good. I am in my mid 70's and cannot find anyone of a comparable age that is awake, its lonely and depressing at times.
You are welcome
Yeah that's how everyone was in my old town including my family but I moved to a red state. It's definitely a bubble here but it's important that we talk to each other or we'd also go crazy.
You need to reach others all around that is how we win.
"You ain't black if you don't vote for me!"
I heard that but obviously they didn't.
They are being brainwashed by PMSNBC.
Actual free speech including things not everyone likes would make this place much more interesting and useful imo
Yea sometimes you say things and if you don't parrot the narrative they attack.
This is funny because they condemn other sites for the same thing.
I know a few people who haven’t taken the conversation as seriously since qrv ended
When the student is ready the teacher appears. I have noticed that some people are receptive and ready to hear the truth. While others just aren't there yet. Some can hear a little and that's ok. Eventually, everyone will see the criminal syndicate for what it is.
My super progressive sister no longer trys to defend Biden. That's huge even though she still hates Trump with a passion. She will see the truth when he's back in office. Meanwhile I don't talk politics with her if I can help it.
Are we in a bubble here? No I don't believe so. We bring in news from all kinds of sources. We cuse and discuss the finer points. I love this platform bc of this. It has enabled me to be much more educated on what's going on particularly when I have the opportunity to talk with others, be they liberal or conservative.
Nice share GG 👍👍👍
Thank you. I believe what we learn here is needed to be shared to others not on here.
I speak to anyone who asks and just maybe I am getting through to some.
Yes. We are in a bubble on here. Even if we are right on many things we do our selves a disservice by just agreeing with one another all the time
Thank you.
You understand where many here do not if you read the comments.
We need to reach others.
No, I have a life outside of a msg board.
Many Post have links to articles I find interesting. Letting a frog be one of my editors.
You missed the entire point.
When you keep Jerry Springer in check, sometimes civil conversation, with no yelling, no knee-jerks nor drama... it works.
Exactly what I did.
I was calm and gave him a free facts first him to check.
I see you made it out alive.
It was a civil situation with a brother and sister who were in no way disrespectful.
She was obviously a Trump supporter but he did listen and just maybe he will do some research.
No
Did you read what I was trying to convey?
I did. Willfully ignorant though. Most people are not. Us poor folks don't need the news to tell us how bad things are.
and even then, is it Really that bad? yes, it's strange, frustrating, etc. but we obviously still have basic necessities.
my grandmas would laugh...if I told them my life was 'hard'. they were born in 1890s, lived on farms. one fled communism, then raised a family & worked in a packing house for many years. my 'struggles' are not even worth mentioning😎
They could afford necessities. Sure life was harder but your money went further
More and more, I believe this whole thing is just a natural selection event. Has nothing to do with skin. Only brains/survival skills. If this family is kind and sweet, I pray you opened the curtain to some light and that they make it through…..
There's a lot of spike proteins in that room fren.
Show them pictures with DJT and Rev. Sharpton and Rev. Jesse Jackson and MLK JRs' granddaughter together with him praising him. There is a Q drop but I cannot find it. Good for you standing your ground. Believe it or not you are planting seeds. Many are waking up. I am seeing it all around me. Cheers fren.
Fren, I get where you are coming from, but they have an excuse for every “Trump is not a racist” fact: he is only “pretending” not to be a racist. There is no fact that beats that. There is no way to argue against “pretending”.
I think the strategy is to hopscotch right over this because the more you keep “Trump” and “racist” in the same sentence, the more Trump seems like a racist. The facts get drowned out by the persuasion of the words. It’s all a rhetoric game. You’d probably be better off rolling your eyes, groaning, and going, “Not this old trope again. Don’t you know Kanye put this one to bed years ago? Catch up with the times man!”
You see how that changes it? Did Kanye ACTUALLY put this to bed years ago? No, that’s not official! But it sounds like it is. And now the person feels out of date and behind the times, which no one likes. And you haven’t used the words “Trump” or “racist” at all. You’ve also put them on the defensive. Now THEY have to argue against an arbitrary claim of which you are the decider. Did Kanye put this to bed or did he not? You’ve also trapped them because odds are they will likely jump to start attacking Ye as either an anti-Semite or crazy. Think about the frame here. You’re now off “Is Trump a racist” and you’ve got them calling a black dude crazy. That’s an easy trap. “Oh of course, any time a black man doesn’t do what the white man wants, he’s ‘crazy’. So typical. Come on, you’re better than that.” You’re using all their established rhetoric against them. They’re gonna know calling a black man crazy is a bad look and switch to anti-Semitic. But now you’ve pivoted to the Democrats’ biggest split right now, which is the war in Gaza. You’re now way past “Trump is a racist” and instead poking holes in their entire unworkable coalition. In about five statements you could literally have this same person accusing Biden of genocide. And now you have the words “Biden” and “genocide” in the same sentence. See how that works? Rhetoric!
I rarely read all replies on posts but I kept going to see if you commented further to others. You have very insightful comments. I'll try to work your approach into my discussions.
There is one point I rarely use in "Trump is racist Biden isn't" discussions because it is somewhat scorched earth. I'll point out that there is a lot of video of Biden sniffing and groping little children which is pretty perverted behavior. But the kicker is that he only does this to white children. He won't sniff little black children. Why won't Joe sniff little black children? Does that make him racist?
My responses to the people shooting arrows at Trump (mean tweets, failed marriages, etc) is that 'you're not marrying the man. You're selecting someone who can make your life better for 4 years and possibly beyond.' Then I launch into the low unemployment numbers by Trump for each of the 'groups' that were touted back in the 2020 campaign. Then segue into the inflation and price of eggs, gas, etc. They cannot deny the impact on their pockets. Stay away from Ukraine discussions. (and Israel/gaza stuff). Those topics are so muddy and fluid that nobody can argue those with persuasive certainty. What a rats nest, both of those. But the border is always good fodder. Mass immigration isn't good for either side when you're down to the street level view. My $.02
I like the cut of your jib and would subscribe to your newsletter.
Hey, thanks! I always knew rhetoric was important, but it was Scott Adams who really revealed the extent of it for me. If you like these sorts of persuasion tricks, his book Win Bigly is a good read on how Trump used persuasion in his 2016 campaign. He also vlogs daily on Rumble and YouTube. Real Coffee with Scott Adams. He basically filters the daily news through the lens of persuasion. Sometimes he’s frustrating, but often he has an outside the box way of looking at things that gets you thinking, even when you disagree.
Thank you for the information.
I find LOTS AND LOTS of people I talk to everyday in my personal life are very aware of what’s going on today and very awake. They’re everywhere
