  1. sarah is spewing BS.. have never seen any friends on the left acting like she discribes..

    1. That is highly doubtful but you might not be self aware enough to notice. I’ve seen the behavior detailed among nearly all of my leftist friends.

      After all, the American left has made it pretty damn clear that they don’t really care about the lives of people who disagree with them ideologically.

      This is a true statement especially when you look at how individuals of groups Democrats view as protected are treated when they stray from supporting Democrat ideology.

      She is also right when she points out that Democrats use in/out group strategy to gain power over others and enforce conformity. It is especially strong when you see how Democrats treat the out group. Democrats revel in this behavior because it makes them feel superior but now some are noticing that conformity is hard to achieve when expectations and “whats cool” shift so fast and when positions that used to be just fine for Democrats to have are now forbidden.

      Then the mob eats one of its own and several people in the mob realize it could be them at any time and for any reason, or lack of reason. Its all fun and games when you go after the other but not when you are made the other for disagreeing with some aspect of the continuous revolution of cultural marxism that guides the Democrat party.

  2. Talking about cool kids, President Trump negotiated a “deal” with Mr. Putin, namely that Robert Muller gets to “interview” the 12 Russians he has indicted and in a reciprocal arrangement, Mr. Putin’s FSB gets to “interview” an ambassador to Russia who served under President Obama.

    The Cool Kids in the United States Senate turned it down 98-0, it seems. Seems the senators who could show up to vote were unanimous in serving the Interests of our Country, but it appears that a sense of irony or perhaps a sense of being “trolled” is lost on every last one of them.

    Now that is cool.

    1. Was that a deal? I thought Trump said Putin mentioned it and than everyone collectively lost their stuff. It doesn’t even matter what Trump says, he will get blamed for things Putin says too lol.

        1. When the MSM lost it’s mind over this I decided I could not get an actually accurate assessment of what the two leaders actually discussed, but not necessarily agreed to. Maybe I’ll have to look it up on the Russia Today website to help me figure it out. And that says something right there….

  3. Identity politics and in/out group power plays. Its been going on for decades and it is easy to spot. My favorite is the enthusiasm hurdle where one gets placed on the outs if they don’t demonstrate appropriate level of enthusiasm. What level is that? No one knows for sure but displaying total devotion still might not be enough.

    1. the enthusiasm hurdle
      That one can get really nasty. You didn’t ever want to be the first guy to stop applauding Stalin.
