  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Hillary Clinton wants to deprogram MAGA?

What is a radical MAGA is that some derogatory term?
It is a distinction from the average voter who views Trumps policies as positive and the voter who takes it to a devotional level.

The objection I have is whenever a poster claims that people worship Trump. That is a claim that should not be made on these forums, in my opinion.
Have you not seen the reports from some of his rallies? there are those who worship him.. it's really sickening to observe

Is anyone saying that woke people should be re-educated?
DeSantis has declared Florida "where woke goes to die" and rather than re-educating people, he is changing school curricula to avoid topics of race and gender so students are protected from ideas. Part of his program is a law literally called the Stop WOKE Act, which has been ruled unconstitutional on First Amendment grounds, due to viewpoint discrimination.

The judge opened his 139-page order with a quote from George Orwell’s novel “1984” and called the law “positively dystopian.”

This is not 'anyone'. This is the governor of a large state trying to indoctrinate students to adhere to a government mandated viewpoint.

I have watched some of the rallies, and I have not seen any signs at all that people there are worshipping Trump.

I suspect some Christians would consider some of the analogies being made by Trump supporters to be blasphemous.

Donald Trump is “the Chosen One.”

The attacks on him are literally biblical. He is being persecuted like no one since Jesus.

Trump is literally both a man of destiny and a walking miracle.

Folks, that’s biblical. That’s destiny

But himself doesn't mind.

I certainly did. Anyone not roped in by Trump's cult leader persona would have seen at least a red flag there.

Thanks for the link:

After Bolling asked Trump Jr. what motivation Clinton had to make such a remark, Trump Jr. argued, “I think she says it because she’s got the worst personality of any person in the history of politics.”

He claimed, “She doesn’t understand people, she doesn’t have any feelings. She’s like a reptile.”
Tell me why I should care about what Donald Trump Jr has to say.

Imagine if Trump had made this comment about Biden supporters
You mean something about "locking up" political opponents?
He'd never stoop so low to do something like that - it would make him even worse than liberals, and we know how bad they are.

You mean you are advocating deprogramming-reprogramming of the opposition in America?
What in the world are you talking about? Deprogramming is the preferred verbiage for people who work with families of cult member to help them break out of the intellectual haze of the cult/cult leader. No one is saying anything about "re-programming".

I have no idea what you mean by "opposition in America". Secretary Clinton was very clearly referring to
>> Maybe there needs to be a formal deprogramming of the cult members,” she said in a clip released late Thursday.

“And sadly, so many of those extremists, those MAGA extremists, take their marching orders from Donald Trump, who has no credibility left by any measure,” Clinton added. “He’s only in it for himself.” <<
So she's referring to the percentage of Donald's ardent believers who have reached a cult-like mentality. Where he is the only one who can save America and the world, where has an Olympian physique and where he will smite their enemies when he's properly restored to power by God.

Ok - think I got it now, you are advocating for deprogramming any American who Hillary Clinton determines to be a cult member, anyone who opposes her views.
Weird. It's almost like you're dishonestly representing what I wrote and what she said. I can't imagine why you'd do that.
Once again:

>> So she's referring to the percentage of Donald's ardent believers who have reached a cult-like mentality. Where he is the only one who can save America and the world, where has an Olympian physique and where he will smite their enemies when he's properly restored to power by God. <<

I don't know how any one could possibly read what I wrote and interpret it as "anyone who opposes her views", unless one was engaging in purposeful mendacity.

Hearing stuff like this from her over the years makes me very grateful Hillary was not elected POTUS.

If she was elected POTUS everything would have been business as usual on January 6, 2021. Did you ever think about that?

Yes Trump supporters chanted about locking his political opponent up, who knew that Biden would actually do it
