re: My sister-in-law has gone retarded again

We must know the same guy. I graduated HS in 88 and had a very close knit group of 7 guys who are still today close as brothers. The one who was the most oblivious to politics suddenly became a lunatic around November of 2020. He and his wife started watching all of the X22 podcasts, etc.. The goalposts constantly move for him. Trump was still President and it was all a sting to round up the bad actors. “Just trust me guys. They have it all!Trump has the Generals behind him and this was a trap” etc.. He still believes it as strongly today. The things that he believed were going to happen in Jan. 2006, but didn’t, were just a mis-read on the timeline of events that would install Trump back in office. He has actually been President this whole time running things and Biden is over a shadow government, etc..

We have all tried to break him out of hypnotic state to no avail. He is dug in deep and it is fascinating to observe. We all are right wing guys and agree about how corrupt to the core all facets of American institutions are and we all loathe the Marxist left. We know what we are up against. But none of us are brainwashed by the type of beliefs that have taken hold of him. We have been very concerned for where his mind went and remains since 2020. He is unbending and not the least bit questioning of the insane stuff he reads and hears from these podcasts. He is actually pretty arrogant and says we are all ignorant and that he is trying to wake us up. It truly has been fascinating to watch.
