Dont call it a comeback.  Racism and misogyny have been here for years.

Democrats need to tone down their rhetoric!!!!!!!

I woke up this morning and I realized I truly understand the term gas lighting now.   I guess i should have gotten it before but the outpouring of responses from the right about Kirk has really hit home. 

I guess with Trump i always excused their support because "they" have a reason like "I've always voted GOP" or "the economy" or "immigration" but it had become so apparent that so many live in a different reality than many of us.

But the responses from so many about Kirk is eye opening.  Yes, Trump is an abject racist and misogynist as well.  And too many give him Christ like status.   But for that attitude to filter down to Kirk and now watching him be so venerated.

I just don't know anymore.

The different reality is legit. My niece (who I was close with) has gone full MAGA. Shes on the “Ashley Babbit was murdered in cold blood” wagon. “Kirk was a free speech hero.” Etc etc. just completely and totally gone. I sent her something from a .gov website that contradicted something she believed and she immediately called it the Biden gov website. This was two days ago. So many people are broken.
