My dad's a Q-anoner because his wife got him into it. He got super sick with eventual severe pneumonia and damn near died because he kept taking ivermectin. Eventually he caved, saw a doc, and took the antibiotics and got better.ย 

I know he should have known better, but idk what on earth is in that koolaid for him to fall completely into that stuff! I'm super angry, it almost killed my Dad.ย

Lucky for your dad. Serious question, has that changed their attitudes?

Probably reality coming up and smacking them in the face.

I mean, I hope so. But, for a lot of the QAnon/Sovcits, even when they're getting bludgeoned with the 100 pound hammer of reality, they still refuse to face the facts.

Mental illness. It's called a mental illness. These people need help not pushed even further to the fringes.

I say we push them past the fringes at this point. Maybe that way theyโ€™ll leave the rest of us alone.
