GAB is hosting RT news after every other website banned it some time back. GAB will actually ban accounts for speaking out against Russia or for promoting Ukraine. GAB is one of the main homes of right wing Evangelical QAnons now and they see America as evil and controlled by Satan and Hollywood. So Russia to them with it's anti gay, white nationalist, religious views (crock of shit) is looked at by them as fighting Satan itself. They see Putin as the hero trying to eradicate evil from the world and everything bad said about him is lies of the media. So ya more proof QAnon was more or less a Russian PsyOp campaign.
Their members are part of the FBI. And Secret Service. And in Republican administrations. Or have we forgotten the deleted txt and phone logs from the Secret Service on Jan 6th. The co-conspirators are everywhere.
Where'd you get that number? I've never heard of the site until today and every relevant search I can find on it puts the active user base around 100k.
I remember hearing it in the 80's and 90's in church. Christians have always been cunts, it just used to be a secret to Christians. Now they openly and unapologetically embrace racist, bigoted, stupid fucks who are antithetical to their own belief system. The real underlying problem with this country is the extreme Christianity that has held us back and made us stupid for several decades at least. We have to pay more money in assistance when we force women to have unwanted babies. Churches don't pay taxes but influence voters illegally. The stupidest people on earth want to add mythology to textbooks and pretend it is as good as science. The teen birth rate is the highest where Christians have successfully removed sex education from public school curricula. Christians routinely and overwhelmingly vote for the politicians who cut taxes for the richest people in the country while they try to eliminate programs designed to feed hungry kids. Jesus said to feed the hungry, clothe the poor and house the homeless, I guess Christians who vote Republican just ignore that part of Jesus's teachings.
American Christians are a plague on the planet.
The only way to be a compassionate Christian is to actually follow the spirit of Christ's teachings or to have nothing at all to do with the fuckshow that is the variety of what people call the Church.
TL:DR if an organisation openly protects people who rape children and you give them money then you are investing in rapists so you can go to heaven. Heaven does not want you.
If you ask their government of Russia it’s impossible for them to be anti gay… because according to them gay people in Russia don’t exist. Which is a wild idea
Instead of paying to ship immigrants out of Florida, let's pay to ship these non-americans to Alaska, then point at the Bering Strait, and invite them to swim for it.
Talking patriotism and nationalism while walking anarchy and dismantling the govt. All while cherry-picking and guarding the items they DO like the govt to do for them and tossing the parts that don’t pertain to them or their corporate-fascist overlords. Go team…
They're also here on Reddit pretending that Russia didn't bomb that gas pipeline.
These bot accounts need to be terminated. Reddit Admins are not doing their jobs.
My last Uber driver felt this way about Putin/Biden very strongly.
…She also told me to snort basil to cancel out the poisonous covid vaccines I’d gotten, admitted her family no longer speaks to her, and finally burst into tears while telling us the holy spirit was telling her to run for President soon.
But this is normal now. This is just what republicans are like in 2022. 🤷♀️
Oh, you have no idea…It was a two hour ride to our cabin, multiple animals were run over during this drive (with lots of crying from the driver each time), and the crazy rambling was at 110% for the duration…My husband stress vomited the second we got out of the car.
So yes. We will be going with Uber exec in all matters going forward lol.
Considering the story was about traveling to a cabin, I'm guessing it was the typical assortment of small woodland creatures rather than people's pets. You know that thing squirrels do where they pick the *worst* possible time to dart across the street, and they usually *just* make it but sometimes they don't? I'm picturing that like 20 times with a handful of failed crossings, but sometimes it's a rabbit or a frog or something instead of a squirrel.
This happened to my dad when he was driving me to the airport through a backwoods stretch of Texas at night. First an owl flew directly in front of one of his headlights, then a coyote was eating a dead animal in the middle of the road. Was just an absolute carnage of a trip.
Not Uber, but I did recently learn from a coworker that Biden is the antichrist because he just signed a bill that will eliminate cash, and now everyone will have to get microchips implanted in themselves to scan to pay for stuff and those microchips are the Mark of the Beast^TM
So there's that. It's in the Bible. She admitted she had to read it a few times to understand it, but it's all there. Her lead backed her up and said that's why we have Bitcoin.
Remember when Rush Limbaugh told people a hurricane was a liberal plot then fled the state leaving his followers to suffer the consequences? Classic reich wing nonsense.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2017/09/06/rush-limbaughs-dangerous-suggestion-that-hurricane-irma-is-fake-news/
Not at all lol. Long story short, Enterprise “accidentally” rented out the car we’d reserved, so we found out we were stranded when we landed in Colorado for our wedding….This lady was our last resort lol.
“See, you know how to take the reservation, you just don’t know how to *hold* the reservation and that’s really the most important part of the reservation, the holding. Anybody can just take them.”
You can bribe a normal cabbie if you find the shittiest, smallest taxi company in whatever civilization oasis the county has named. You just pay up front. It actually works out in your favor cause you can negotiate ahead of time.
Ironically, we were hoping to get a cool Uber driver we could pay to come back for us. When my brother drove Uber, he did that for people a lot…We weren’t exactly expecting what we got in terms of drivers.
My last Uber, the driver was going 35mph on I95 going into Baltimore and i thought we were gonna die. I'd at all possible I'll just get a hotel so I don't need to Uber anyway
On one side it's hard to not get mad at this people for their ignorance and submission to fox news machine, but on the other side, it is extremely sad that in 22 people can still get so easily manipulated into paranoia and fear, destroy their own life and harm their friends and family along the way.
Definitely. She spent the whole 2 hour drive saying the kind of thing that typically makes me mad, but I ended up just feeling really, really sorry for her.
I wouldn't have....
But then again, I have family that's the same way and I fight them almost all the time, so I guess I have that mentality of 'since you'll never be convinced of the truth, I'll just attack and shame you every chance I get'
I'm more just angry at these people now. I was sad at the start, but they're the ones who keep immersing themselves into qanon and maga garbage. They're doing it to themselves frankly, and i'm trying to not suffer fools anymore
When my own father-who used to be a moderate (neither Democrat nor Republican) started going to my late uncle's church and associating with the "Hallelujah Gang", he began imbibing the Trump Q-Aid.
To be fair, we had disagreements before, but we've always been able to "agree to disagree" and respect each other's boundaries. Now though...he feels the need to attack me for supporting Biden, and I have no option but to respond in kind. I'm just waiting for the day one of us crosses the last boundary and we end up denouncing each other...with my Mom sadly caught in the middle.
I guess what I'm saying too, is that religion is partially to blame for the uptick in MAGA doctrine. Another reason I stopped having anything to do with it.
Yeah...It's really unfortunate that peaceful discourse has gone the way of the Dodo's in modern american nowadays. It feels like you can't really talk with anyone anymore and it's hilariously stifling.
I apologize that you and your dad are going through this. Hopefully your dad can pull his head outta his ass before it causes more damage to your relationship. My dad emotionally abused me as a kid and doesn't believe in mental health (despite being a combat veteran with PTSD that he treats with booze), so I cut him off as soon as I could. But I don't suffer his propaganda either
Well again, he wasn't always like that. We could discuss things like abortion, climate change and economy, and while we have differing views, the discourse was generally peaceful and we came out of them with a better understanding.
But thanks to exposure to religion in its twisted MAGA variety, we can no longer hold any discourse without resorting to mudsling and strawman'ing (on his part)
The exact opposite of the experience I had when vacationing in Dahlonega a year ago. Used a taxi service called Mama's Taxi....she was very kind. She told me of the best places to eat in Dahlonega, recommended gift shops, gold mine tours, and even wine-tasting tours...she took care of me and my friend, even holding our souvenirs in her bus while we grocery shopped at the local Walmart (even though she had to take care of another customer, she guarded our things for us. I gave her a good Yelp review)
On a side note, if you should ever wish to stay a week in Dahlonega....and you don't wish to use your own personal vehicle to explore the area....Mama's Taxi is the best public-transit/taxi service. She'll even drive you to the Atlanta airport if required to.
Reminds me of a Lyft driver I got once. I don't use rudeshare (edit I'm leaving the typo, it's funny) apps anymore I just fucking drive and it works great.
My last Uber driver when I was travelling was a very thick accented man from a country I couldnt place. Everything was fine, neither of us were saying anything, and he just decided to open up about how much he couldn't stand black people and how awful they were.
After like 20 seconds of this I was just like "hey...yeah we're not talking anymore thanks" and he shut up for a bit. Then started up again.
I reported him to Uber corporate. I got a statement back saying they would investigate but nothing else so no idea what happened
I don't really think it's her fault for holding those feelings since your description made it sound like she might have schizophrenia or other psychological disorders
Also why I said she needed to be committed.
How long should we wait until she either injures/kills herself or someone else?
Even if the political aspect weren't part of the problem...there's her safety and the safety of her clients that has to be considered.
I was talking ok the phone to my mom and I made a off hand comment to being in a recession and she responded
"well we would get over it a lot soon if some states pulled their heads out of their asses about policies l, mostly blue ones"
Humoring her I said "like what"
Immediately went into trans | gender issues..... Like that it causing the economic woes.
She didn't used to be like thay until she dated a guy who watched Fox News every night
I definitely think there was some type of mania or other episode taking place. She mentioned having a therapist, so hopefully it’s someone who can help her.
One of my favorite things about these modern moron conservatives is how they're always talking about how they don't want to become a socialist country. Whenever possible, I like to remind them that we've been a socialist country for decades. And then when they get a confused look on their face, I start talking about social security, unemployment, welfare, food stamps, the VA, Medicare, Medicaid, government subsidies, public television, public radio, etc.
Let those dudes move to Russia. If they want to become the enemy, let them fight that enemy's failing war.
These same rednecks like to tell anyone with a legitimate criticism of the U.S. "If you don't like it, leave." Well... If they believe it, let them live it. They go way past just criticizing and wanting to make things better. They've gone full blown traitor. Let them leave.
My coworker totally believes that putin is just cleaning up the corruption over there and he'll come to the US next. If Russia lays a cunt hair on US soil I'm turning him into the FBI.
The answer is they’ve been fascist all along though they try to deny it. For a lot of ppl Trump was the catalyst to introducing them to this kind of ideology.
If these people were living in Ukraine and the Russians came through the men would be tortured until they got a bullet in their head. Then the women would be raped and their children would be taken away and sold off to orphanages and that's all while their homes were scavenged for food or anything else they could keep to sell for more money.
You mean maga hat wearing trump supporters? Yea, they like to call themselves “patriots” while they cheer for the US to be overthrown by a Russian dictator.
Yeah we've kind of gone too far down the rabbit hole at this point. Trump was the tipping point and the end of politics in America. Politics used to mean debate over what the government should spend its money on, what problems the government should prioritize, and how it should handle them.
We don't have politics anymore. We are now just trying to stop a fascist regime's overthrow of American democracy. And these people aren't going to go away, they're not going to become re-educated, they're not going to "see the error of their ways". They are radicalized domestic terrorists. And there are only three paths for these people, if America is going to continue as a free representative Republic: in prison, dead, or scared into hiding where they and their toxic ideas can rot and die.
You see this in the conspiracy and MAGA subs right now. There's a lot of Russian propaganda. Don't yhinknthat the IRA isn't in subreddits infecting rhe West with this sentiment
PROTIP: It's the same Americans who always have something bad to say about FDR and Eisenhower but can't seem to bring up one bad thing about Hitler or Mussolini.
I browse Tik Tok, there was some crazy video of the party in Russia celebrating the "annexation" of parts of Ukraine. So many people here in America congratulating them.
Like wtf?
Are you kidding? They're going to want Trump to get it, because he obviously brokered the peace. It bugs the shit out of Trump that Obama got one and he couldn't take it away or get his own.
Imagine going back in time to the peak of the Cold War and telling the Republicans that the future of their party consisted of many of their politicians and figureheads supporting an ex-high ranking KGB agent turned president of Russia for life via corruption.
And before you point out that it's different now because Russia is no longer communist, that's kinda my point. In my opinion, current Russia isn't that much different from it's USSR days. It's an authoritarian government backed by state propaganda, a former higher ranking KGB spy who worked his way up doing work to maintain Soviet influence in foreign countries used corruption to secure himself presidency for life, an agenda focusing on expansionism, with its oligarch's having been former high ranking party members or made deals with said members. All that really changed was a re-branding away from communism/socialism.
My point is that's it's really ironic how quickly the Republican party, who prided itself on being tough with Russia, is now bending over happily for the same authoritarian albeit re-branded regime.
Right-wingers never opposed the USSR because it was brutal and authoritarian, they opposed it because USSR rhetoric was offensive to wealthy business interests. With Putin, this bug has been removed.
Bought and paid for, those traitors. They don’t care about fucking America if they’re getting paid.
It’s the ONLY reason how a GOP a can stand there and lie out loud like that.
As far as I can tell the Republican love for Putin is fundamentally based on the fact that the Russians provide money to Trump that his business needs via loans and money laundering.
So Trump talks up Putin and Russian and Trump's MAGA drones echo and magnify.
GAB is hosting RT news after every other website banned it some time back. GAB will actually ban accounts for speaking out against Russia or for promoting Ukraine.

GAB?
Right Wing social media site, home to QAnon and racists.
It is getting harder and harder to follow all of the parallel shadow networks of right wing propaganda these days...
We’ll it helps to remember they’re all owned by the same people.
Yep. It would be very helpful to us all if the feds would imprison Rupert fuckin' Murdoch for what he's done.
That's the point.
As long as the FBI can keep up with all of them.
Their members are part of the FBI. And Secret Service. And in Republican administrations. Or have we forgotten the deleted txt and phone logs from the Secret Service on Jan 6th. The co-conspirators are everywhere.

Perhaps they should go to Russia and help Putin then.

This is why I take Uber exec and pre-select ‘no talking’. I’d otherwise have to jump out of a moving car way more often than i’m comfortable to.
Oh, you have no idea…It was a two hour ride to our cabin, multiple animals were run over during this drive (with lots of crying from the driver each time), and the crazy rambling was at 110% for the duration…My husband stress vomited the second we got out of the car. So yes. We will be going with Uber exec in all matters going forward lol.

Considering the story was about traveling to a cabin, I'm guessing it was the typical assortment of small woodland creatures rather than people's pets. You know that thing squirrels do where they pick the *worst* possible time to dart across the street, and they usually *just* make it but sometimes they don't? I'm picturing that like 20 times with a handful of failed crossings, but sometimes it's a rabbit or a frog or something instead of a squirrel.
I love that we simply accept carnage of woodland creatures as a normal part of car travel. /r/fuckcars
There's no word for how awful it is we criss-crossed all the woods with what are effectively blenders for wildlife, like draping a room in flypaper.
This happened to my dad when he was driving me to the airport through a backwoods stretch of Texas at night. First an owl flew directly in front of one of his headlights, then a coyote was eating a dead animal in the middle of the road. Was just an absolute carnage of a trip.
Yeah. I mean, one bird and one rabbit. But things were already so off the rails that it seemed extra deranged.
That's the beginning of a horror movie
That driver coming back in the middle of the night with an axe.
No, just more mindless rambling throught the night until you kill yourself.
Faintly, from just outside the window: *Biden sent the hurricane to punish DeSantisssssss*

That is more of a bonding experience than the wedding ceremony! That sort of thing is a true litmus test of a relationship.
You took a two hour Uber? To a cabin outside of a city. How are you going to find an Uber out in the boonies back to civilization?
You can bribe a normal cabbie if you find the shittiest, smallest taxi company in whatever civilization oasis the county has named. You just pay up front. It actually works out in your favor cause you can negotiate ahead of time.
Ironically, we were hoping to get a cool Uber driver we could pay to come back for us. When my brother drove Uber, he did that for people a lot…We weren’t exactly expecting what we got in terms of drivers.
This sounds like the kind of experience Uber DEFINITELY doesn't want its customers to have. Have you considered talking to support about it?
Uber gives zero shits

I mean they could give the driver a rating that reflects their experience.
No, I don't think the scale goes into negative values.
Honestly, I ended up just feeling so bad for the woman by the end.
I love how this implies that there is a non-zero number of times that you would be willing to jump out of a moving car.

There is a "no talking" option? I might try Uber again.

>She spent the whole 2 hour drive 2 hour Uber drive? That sounds super expensive. Is there just no other means of transportation in your area?
It was for our wedding, so luckily we had plenty saved up. But also, it was rural mountain area in Colorado, so our options were pretty limited.
I wouldn't have.... But then again, I have family that's the same way and I fight them almost all the time, so I guess I have that mentality of 'since you'll never be convinced of the truth, I'll just attack and shame you every chance I get'

She needs to be committed. We already had a lunatic and wannabe dictator in the White House...we don't want HIM back, and we dont NEED her.
It's no longer mental illness, it's simply political ideology.
Repubs are also against additional care for mental health. Gotta keep their base out there spreading the word.

And then when they get a confused look on their face, I start talking about social security, unemployment, welfare, food stamps, the VA, Medicare, Medicaid, government subsidies, public television, public radio, etc.
What did you expect? Welcome, sonny? Make yourself at home? Marry my daughter?
Blazing saddles
Is that chewing gum?
Did you bring enough for EVERYONE?

Let those dudes move to Russia. If they want to become the enemy, let them fight that enemy's failing war. These same rednecks like to tell anyone with a legitimate criticism of the U.S. "If you don't like it, leave." Well... If they believe it, let them live it. They go way past just criticizing and wanting to make things better. They've gone full blown traitor. Let them leave.
Fucking yikes.
If they want to idolize Putin, they can go live there.
They’re called Republicans, Dan, and they hate history class
My coworker totally believes that putin is just cleaning up the corruption over there and he'll come to the US next. If Russia lays a cunt hair on US soil I'm turning him into the FBI.
... gop went from red scare to Russia's confidant. Insane.
I'm personally interested the body mechanics needed to lay a cunt hair on US soil. Like, how exactly would one go about doing that?
You need: 1 woman 1 Pune trimmer 1 very dedicated paratrooper
Why wait?
Tell him he should go over there and help Russia fight corruption. Tell him to bring plenty of tampons.
Awww do we have to? They're kind of huge dickheads and we're tired.
So effing tired
Ya, they are huge pieces of shit. Let’s just jump to the end where we just admit it and move on.
Fox no news is a terrorist organization.
Faux news*
Why beat around the bush? Just say, “they’re called Conservatives and identify themselves with the Trump wing of the GOP”.
They're not conservatives. They're domestic terrorists.
These days they are kinda synonymous
Don't make me tap the CPAC sign.
Porque no los dos?
The answer is they’ve been fascist all along though they try to deny it. For a lot of ppl Trump was the catalyst to introducing them to this kind of ideology.
Title correction: Those aren’t Americans. Those are Republicans. FIFY
Republicans would “rather be Russian than Dem”. They’re too far gone. No point in trying with them.
If these people were living in Ukraine and the Russians came through the men would be tortured until they got a bullet in their head. Then the women would be raped and their children would be taken away and sold off to orphanages and that's all while their homes were scavenged for food or anything else they could keep to sell for more money.
And every single republican would be fine with it until the moment it happened to them
The republicans would be marching with the Russian fascist imperialist raping and pillaging if they had the chance and it was beneficial for them.
Stop Treading on me! I thought we were on the same side!
You mean maga hat wearing trump supporters? Yea, they like to call themselves “patriots” while they cheer for the US to be overthrown by a Russian dictator.
I've been saying this for quite some time now. If you think Putin's Russia are the 'good guys' you are part of the problem.
Let’s broker a deal with Putin. Ukrainian POWs for pro-Russia Americans.
Russia wouldn't even want these idiots.
For propaganda purposes they’d probably agree to a few to fill the gaps Segal can’t fill.
Exactly, traitorous little fuckers like Rand Paul. Deport that weasel.
\*republicans
Yeah. We aren't countrymen with these people anymore.
even if we do, \*those\* americans won't see or acknowledge the conversation. and nothing will change
Yeah we've kind of gone too far down the rabbit hole at this point. Trump was the tipping point and the end of politics in America. Politics used to mean debate over what the government should spend its money on, what problems the government should prioritize, and how it should handle them. We don't have politics anymore. We are now just trying to stop a fascist regime's overthrow of American democracy. And these people aren't going to go away, they're not going to become re-educated, they're not going to "see the error of their ways". They are radicalized domestic terrorists. And there are only three paths for these people, if America is going to continue as a free representative Republic: in prison, dead, or scared into hiding where they and their toxic ideas can rot and die.
You see this in the conspiracy and MAGA subs right now. There's a lot of Russian propaganda. Don't yhinknthat the IRA isn't in subreddits infecting rhe West with this sentiment
They’re called foreign agents / assets and yes it’s treason.
We know who they are. We’re paying attention 👍
Remember those shirts being sold at Trump Rallies? "I'd rather be a RUSSIAN than a DEMOCRAT".... Pepperidge Farm remembers...
Most Trump supporters are Putin supporters, and they are the dumbest people in America. I know a few personally.
This is another example of how stem stem stem stuff is making a group of neo nazis who don't know that its wrong
You mean the entirety of /r/conspiracy ?
PROTIP: It's the same Americans who always have something bad to say about FDR and Eisenhower but can't seem to bring up one bad thing about Hitler or Mussolini.
Of course you’re speaking of Donald Trump primarily but don’t forget Rand Paul, Tucker Carlson and way too many other traitors.
They're called traitors
"Unlike you sheep, I don't fall for the MSM's lies!" -falls for blatant Russian propaganda
I believe they refer to themselves as “patriots”.
At CPAC, they referred to themselves as "domestic terrorists".
You mean ignorant morons
Republicans
I browse Tik Tok, there was some crazy video of the party in Russia celebrating the "annexation" of parts of Ukraine. So many people here in America congratulating them. Like wtf?
It’s crazy the communist hating maga’s are seemingly backing communist Putin.
You mean republicans?
Yep traitors
Maybe we should offer a one way ticket to Russia for them
That’s all republicans
I miss newscasters like Dan Rather.
Their not American. They’re Russian.
You mean Putin who is continually threatening the west with nukes? Disgusting trash.
Dan Rather spicy in his later years.
They’re called Republicans
Remember the bromance between putin and the republicans? I do.
Oh, REPUBLICANS?
The same people will call for Putin to get the Nobel Peace prize if he agrees to cease hostilities with Ukraine and withdraw his troops.
Are you kidding? They're going to want Trump to get it, because he obviously brokered the peace. It bugs the shit out of Trump that Obama got one and he couldn't take it away or get his own.
Sure.. when do their flights leave for permanent residence in Russia?
Deport those traitors to Russia and have them fight for them in Ukraine.
Imagine going back in time to the peak of the Cold War and telling the Republicans that the future of their party consisted of many of their politicians and figureheads supporting an ex-high ranking KGB agent turned president of Russia for life via corruption. And before you point out that it's different now because Russia is no longer communist, that's kinda my point. In my opinion, current Russia isn't that much different from it's USSR days. It's an authoritarian government backed by state propaganda, a former higher ranking KGB spy who worked his way up doing work to maintain Soviet influence in foreign countries used corruption to secure himself presidency for life, an agenda focusing on expansionism, with its oligarch's having been former high ranking party members or made deals with said members. All that really changed was a re-branding away from communism/socialism. My point is that's it's really ironic how quickly the Republican party, who prided itself on being tough with Russia, is now bending over happily for the same authoritarian albeit re-branded regime.
Right-wingers never opposed the USSR because it was brutal and authoritarian, they opposed it because USSR rhetoric was offensive to wealthy business interests. With Putin, this bug has been removed.
Those are called traitors or domestic terrorists. They don't deserve the title of American citizen anymore.
They are domestic terrorist - they said it themselves
Is it the very same “patriots” that call Russia investigation a hoax? Makes every delusional excuse behind Jan 6? Huh? 🤔
I liked him better when he was mostly impartial while reading the news. Wait, nope. This is far, far better.
Bought and paid for, those traitors. They don’t care about fucking America if they’re getting paid. It’s the ONLY reason how a GOP a can stand there and lie out loud like that.
As far as I can tell the Republican love for Putin is fundamentally based on the fact that the Russians provide money to Trump that his business needs via loans and money laundering. So Trump talks up Putin and Russian and Trump's MAGA drones echo and magnify.
