At the risk of pointing out an inaccuracy that probably nobody noticed and thus doesn't need to be corrected, but we're in daylight saving time, not standard time, so it should be EDT above, and not EST.

As someone who has 28,000 followers on Parler and spent a lot of time interacting with some extremely Rightwing folks, sometimes needing to tell them that while there probably was a good message underneath their text, they were saying very objectionable things. I would like to help you with Qanons. They are mostly older men and women who are desperate for a rallying point for people like them who are completely abandoned by the credentialed elite. And yes, they see the lack of transparency in the Epstein case and they are not completely wrong that the DC swamp is teeming with pedophile rapists. But the main thing is QANONS know you hate them. And they know you hate Trump. So they know whose side Trump is on.

I'm having a lot of trouble signing in, getting the broadcast, and missing the show. About the only thing that's easy is 'commenting".

You don’t understand Trump Supporters.

Why do you keep writing that you have "28,000 followers on Parler"? Hell, just like Musk says, they could be bots! And 28k is a drop in the ocean on the Internet.

My point is that I talked to a lot more Trump Supporters and QANONs than most.

It is easy to tell by the pictures you chose to showcase how you feel about the subjects.

Try not to be so obvious. Deep seated, long term hate is unbecoming and dangerous .

How about yet another global warming non-solution? The GOP denies that AGW is a problem, it is, just read about the Permian Extinction, and the Dems push for market driven alternative energy when the only solution is the fast breeder reactor that would end the need for fossil fuels altogether.

Humans have been devastating wildlife and its habitat for the past few hundred years, faster than the declines seen in the fossil record leading up to the Permian Extinction that took 60,000 +/- 48,000 years to transpire. We could actually complete the extinction event that we've been driving in a few decades if we do not a) reduce the human load to well below 2 billion by getting people to stop having kids and (b) replace our extractive economy with a closed-loop, sustainable economy ASAP.

Heavens to Betsy, are you trying to insinuate that there have always been young guys in human society who couldn't get laid and that only with the dawning of the internet, where every doofus can find a support group for their own personal whine, that we get a category called "incels?"

Seriously though, I can think of one poor boob I used to work with about 20 years ago. He was 40 at that time and he confessed to me that he'd never been with a woman. My advice was, "Dude, find a hooker."

My next two nuggets of advice were "Dude, you're 40, it's time to cut that parental umbilical cord & move out of your parent's West Virginia double wide" and "Dude, you really have to stop following women home & secretly leaving Bibles on their porches. They will not respond well to that."

Since he eventually got canned for sexual harassment I can only assume he followed none of my advice.

Otherwise he was a nice guy.

“ Gees the useless republican former party would be arming if it had happened with them in the WH.”

Republicans never found out what was in the thousands and thousands of messages HC deleted. Who was armed over that? I missed it.

Plus, most Dems in the Muller investigation had already wiped their phones. When the IG wanted them.

LOL! Bullshit. Trump's internal government supporters had reason to wipe OUR data, it belongs to us, not them, because of his call to action by his supporters and the results of their behavior. The Dems had nothing to do with that.

Do you think the secret service orchestrated the riot?
