Residents gushed over videos of Walz’s son, Gus, at the Democratic National Convention crying, clapping and declaring, “That’s my dad!”

This so forced it hurts. I'm sure the same people also mocked the shit out of Baron back in the day for having the arrogance to exist and be a sleepy child at midnight in that one video after Trump was elected.

These days, it’s easy to read some newly planted yard signs with a tone of resignation: “Harris-Walz: We Understand the Assignment.”

It took Israel for some of these people to realize they are literally owned and their own party considers them such. And they literally don't care, because the brainwash runs that deep that being disrespected and owned is better than being a filthy Rightie.

“I absolutely love what I do for a living,” said Joseph Kirk, a tall, goateed man in his early 40s who sometimes dons a fedora. He is the elections supervisor in Bartow County, Ga., in the Appalachian foothills.

A literal living reddit personification controls the elections in Georgia. Which says enough about how fucked they are.

I’ve been so preoccupied with wringing my hands, bemoaning the state of things, that I’ve forgotten my most important job as a parent: to be an example.

It took a literal "Passions Civic" class their kid was taking to remind this parent how parenting works. This is an admission that they had spent probably 4-8 years prior literally blackpilling their kid and breaking them down about how evil Trump and his base it, and have successfully brainwashed them into good little Lefties that their uber rich parents can be proud of.

Others eyed me through cracked front doors with suspicion. “My views are my own,” a man wearing a National Rifle Association T-shirt said.

The NRA types are more hat wearers than shirt wearers. This guy should try to do more research before he concocts a fake story. Nor would an NRA guy not jump at the chance to be an obnoxious asshole to some Leftie at his door, as if he was smart enough to keep quiet he wouldn't still support the NRA.

“Fake news! Communist rag!” he shouted. “I don’t talk to communists.” And walked out. The mother said softly, “He gets all his information off the internet; he has very strong views.”

Really not doing the "communist rag" label any favors when you keep making up literal caricatures. Every single line from his section has nearly perfect examples of cliche, stereotypical examples and quotes from what a Woke Leftie thinks the Right looks/sounds like.

Take a look at yard signs.

One thing that's surprised me is how many Leftist yard signs are not just saying "Harris". I've seen a ton more which are ideological proclamations of faith. I first started seeing the "Hate Has No Home Here" a few years ago, but now a lot more, and a lot other trigger phrases:

  • "Stop Project 2025"
  • "Understood The Assignment"
  • "I'm a veteran, not a sucker or loser"
  • "Hate Has No Home Here"
  • (all of the above)

The all of the above one is the one that has basically all the mantras at the same time colored in rainbow colors. It's the one that says:

  • "Black Lives Matter"
  • "The Science Is Settled"
  • "Love is Love"
  • "No One Is Illegal"
  • "Believe Women"
  • etc

It's the Literal NPC declaration of accepting Current Thing

That Rainbow Affirmations sign is pretty old and all the ones I see are clearly from around 2020~. They were cringe then and they get more cringe by the year as each one gets proven false.

I've actually seen very little Leftie signs whatsoever. Most of them are the bog standard Harris/Walz ones that I'm sure they got for free, with quite a few are literally the just Harris ones from the few weeks before Walz was chosen.

But we've also had a rash of people going up and stealing Harris signs (while flipping off the Ring cameras) or just straight up burning them in my area. Which has probably driven most of them underground in their support. I'd call that dangerous and bad, but I've been in the Right through all the bad times and won't shed a tear for people who did or supported being done the same thing to me for decades.

Strange, we haven't seen that at all. Though I think most around me are Boomer-Cons and genuine Romney voters (and a few reformed ones). The kind that think Ted Cruz is a bit radical.

I despise them.

No, but, as such, I think there's been no violence because they're not the type to consider it.

I'm in one of those "hard purple" areas, wherein the next town over is rural farmers and in town itself is full of the type of jobs that are basically pure Red voters, but its also full of Mexicans and the giant university folks (and those that they bring).

So I get the full gamut. Even my own two neighbors are a "OFFENDED LIBERAL?!?!" Trump guy and someone who has in the past year flown Ukraine, Gay, and now Palestine's flag.

Its actually quite amusing to see shifts in public conscienceness happen in real time from it. Like seeing the TDS guy at work go from bullying other people into agreeing with him, to watching his every Media Fed Line get laughed off by complete normies.
