Watching "Shiny Happy People" gave me an idea how frighteningly organized conservatives are. Not Trump and his lackeys, but the larger christian right.

Yeah, I feel like they are better prepared than we give them credit for. The true powers are happy to let the Ya'llqaida run their mouths and wander around in Walmart camo looking ridiculous, because it makes the rest of us discredit them. But the real threat is very strong, very powerful, and very hidden. I was raised conservative Christian. I was raised under a lot of the same beliefs as the fucking cult in Shiny Happy People. I went to camp at one of the universities that they are apparently organizing conservative youth to go into politics with the purpose of taking over. I didn't know about any of it, I'd never heard the name of that cult before or that any of it was happening, that's how well it is hidden. I think that they are so good at sliding under the surface that you can be so close to it and never know it's there meanwhile they are paying off people and getting policies made and controlling the world however they see fit. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

That’s who they call the silent majority

It will shock you when you learn how well funded many are too. People need to stop thinking of insurrectionists as hobbyist hillbillies with shotguns. A lot of them are full on paramilitary groups.
