I confess: I find Freeperville fascinating. Repulsive, sure, but a glimpse into a large


chunk of the American electorate and its psyche.

With that in mind, I offer you this post from a thread there that exemplifies cognitive dissonance.

You know, seriously, I believe anyone who conscientiously votes for Hillary Rodham Clinton is in serious danger of eternal damnation.
1. She is for killing the unborn
2. Her life is full of lies and scandals
3. She will appoint Supreme Court political appointees that will destroy America forever.
4. She has covered up and enabled a rapist lecherous immoral husband for years


Having said that I believe she will be elected by this evil country.

DJT has brought a lot of this on himself by self destructing when we needed him the strongest. (Yes for you GOPe haters out there , I am going to vote for DJT even if he runs through the streets naked!)

For the next 8 years Bible-believing Christians might have to underground like Chinese house churches.

The cries of the unborn will go unheard

Socialism will destroy america like it destroyed Venezuala

Our fighting forces will be PC and feminized to the point we won’t know what to fight for

Her Islamacist allies will continue to massacre and debauch the world.

It's from a thread on HRC leading in Georgia. The freak out is predictable and kinda awesome in a schadenfreude way.

It's good to see cali venturing outside of her safe space (The Island). That place is toxic
Deplorable since 2016

7. I'm a teacher and I've actually heard some of my fellow teachers say things like,
 
"Well, if it's Hillary or Trump, I'll just have to swallow hard and...vote for Trump."
The the 20+ year long "Hillary is evil" narrative is part of some people's DNA at this point.

A math teacher also said to me this year, "We got through the entire 20th century without the communists taking us over. Who would have thought it would be happening now with that Bernie Sanders."

And these are educated people. The mind reels.

Clearly cali doesn't know what "cognitive dissonance" means, because there's nothing in what she quoted that contains two or more contradictory beliefs.

She's still high on pain killers, isn't she?

No, Eva doesn't know what cognitive dissodance is, to her it's just a big term she thinks smart people use. She has no business questioning anybody else's judgment after she was so wrong on Sanders. She actually thought he could win.  ::) Then there's the earwigs, her getting herself fired from that dumb job because she couldn't keep her old hateful mouth shut and the revoked license incidents.

Look at this asshat:

23. It's gonna change your life!

As a recent article on the subject said, the key to understanding Trump supporters is that they are too dumb to know that they are dumb.

It also explains why many Republican leaders live and die by the rule "never tell the truth." They understand that the truth means nothing to people who are incapable of rational thought, who make it up as they go along and believe what they wish to believe without even knowing the concepts of consistency or hypocrisy, much less their definitions.

<buncha bullshit>


I confess: I find dummieland fascinating, amusing and repulsive all at the same time.  And you wonder why we watch dummieland?  To point and laugh at your utter stupidity.

Personally I find that you are a big idiot and that is a dis at real idiots everywhere.

Maybe it's more apparent in DU's format, but if not, Cali is pretty sloppy about discerning her comments from the supposed FR post she claims to have quoted. I think this is what she claims was posted on FR (she might be telling the truth, I'm just qualifying in case she made it up):

J Our fighting forces will be PC and feminized to the point we won’t know what to fight for

K Her Islamacist allies will continue to massacre and debauch the world.

A Absent some miracle, this is entirely true. Abortion kills an unborn child. The only point in that sentence many - but not all - Pro-Abortion people would dispute is the word "child".

B I'm sure many Libs & Progs would dispute this factual statement, but at least some would be unable to keep a straight face while so doing.

C This also is true, though Libs & Progs would dispute the word "destroy". They would see it as remaking America to what it should be.

D I'm sure many Libs & Progs would dispute this factual statement, but a few might be unable to keep a straight face while so doing.

E & F These are expressions of opinion whose accuracy cannot be foreseen

G This is, at best, improbable hyperbole. Christian churches will come under attack - by government and by activists - but the success of those attacks is likely to be mixed, and 8 years are much too short for congregations, seminaries, and Christian colleges/universities to be forced underground.

H This uses a metaphor Libs & Progs would be inclined to, dishonestly, literalize. That noted, it's also a bit hyperbolic, as Pro-Life people "hear" their "cry".

I This also is hyperbole, but only because 8 years are too short for our economy to be destroyed the way Venezuela's has been. It took Lenin and Stalin some 15 years and millions of innocents slaughtered to destroy Russia's much weaker economy and replace it with something weaker (which still hobbled along for another 5 or 6 decades).

J This has been in process for 8 years already. No doubt The SHREW would continue it. The capabilities of our military might be compromised by their social experimentation and expending energy and resources on irrelevancies, but "we won’t know what to fight for" is doubtful, unless "we" refers to DC pols.

K This is basically true, though it ignores the fact that "the world" is likely to fight back and win (in ~700 AD EuroLand was in shambles, and Islam was able to invade; in ~1500 AD the last remnant of Islam had been booted out of Western EuroLand; in ~1700 AD Islam had retreated from Eastern EuroLand, except for the Balkan Peninsula).

"Cognitive dissonance" means holding, simultaneously, 2 or more mutually contradicting views. The views supposedly expressed by that Freeper may contradict Cali's at multiple points, but none are mutually contradicting. :popcorn: :lmao: As Tess and U4ME pointed out, Cali used a buzzword of whose meaning she is clueless. :lmao: :popcorn:

Is Cali a few briquettes short of a barbecue?
