My mother has been fooled by all of the extreme-far-right bullshit. She's against immigration (she's an immigrant), she's against vaccination for "a variety of reasons", but mostly because she thinks 99.99% of people survive COVID because her (vaccinated) 90-year-old mother did (even though it killed a dozen people in the same care home during an outbreak). She thinks the transition to 'green power' means we won't have electricity after the sun goes down. She thinks the global elite will crash the economy to redistribute wealth to themselves.
She wasn't always like this. She was a smart and savvy business owner.
This is what Russia want Canadians to be like.
Sounds like my brother who moved up north with his family, into the Ontario wild to build his own house... Homeschool his children, and refuse to get them vaccinated (cause it has cancer in it). Says shooting/killing someone who trespasses on his property is legal, and then jokes about how he has a lot of land to bury bodies. He is filled with anger. I am scared of him.
It's wild how many people think the global elites will crash the economy, and yet vote in the very people to make something like that happen... The lack of self awareness is baffling.
Yup, my Mom's FB feed is basically her verbally fellating grifters and psychopaths, and yelling about anyone that has a clue.
Ughhhhh. So sorry, man. My parents are conservative voters and I was so worried they were gonna develop brain rot. So far they haven't, though. π€π»
Yeah, it sucks, but there was little I could do to change her trajectory. Her boyfriend is a far-far right oil-patch moron and former cop. I see the shit he posts on Xitter, and he's fellating the same scammers and shitheads.
I miss the person she used to be, not who she is now.
