The group of friends were clutching their pearls about Trump’s “bloodbath” comments, and talking about how they all listen to the “Politico Playbook”, which is a Politico podcast full of insane Left-wing propaganda. Just their egregious headlines in monotone podcast form. It’s blatant brainwashing.
From my perspective, this interaction was a brilliant microcosm of the current state of Left-wingers. They are stuck in this city bubble that is completely devoid of reality. Their conversations are literally just them regurgitating MSM talking points to each other.
At first I was snickering under my breath, laughing at how insanely stupid these people are, but as I continued to listen, I started to become disturbed. I started to feel bad for them. These people are victims. Victims to a machine that has warped their minds beyond repair.
This is not humanity. These people have no individual thoughts or ideas. They are mindless meat sacks, controlled by an outside force.
These are the minds of the people we are trying to save… and unfortunately, many are not going to make it. Some will stay in the Matrix forever.
I'm hoping that once the 24/7 nonstop propaganda stops, and crime starts dropping and other nasty Woke-tainted situations begin healing, many of the Lost will wake up. We're seeing a lot of that right now, actually; people who were fully buying the Cabal's narrative but are now waking up to reality, either one issue at a time or even more quickly.
But as for the percentage who WON'T ever rejoin reality in their minds, I too suspect "4 to 6%" will prove to be at least slightly optimistic.
And that's in addition to those who are and will remain lost because they are actually evil or because their minds were purposefully broken and twisted in childhood by the "Education" and "Welfare" and MSM propaganda systems. No marketable skills, no experience of thinking for oneself, no understanding that the world doesn't owe one a living, no sense of the unity of mankind or feeling for connection with others beyond a shallow and toxic connection to fellow Woke cultists.
So yes: I believe the number of permanently lost will be higher than Q predicts. The good news is that I've been wrong before -- once or twice ;) -- and hope to be wrong again on this issue.
