I'm reminded of their support for that random Democrat from Hawaii. Turns out she was anti gay and pro intervention.

Tulsi Gabbard is actually a member of a fringe cult that schismed of off the Hare Krishnas, she and her weird cultist dad have switched parties a few times to try to maneuver themselves into positions of political power to advance the cults material interests and ideology. They're super anti-LGBT and anti-Muslim.

She's also an intelligence officer in the US military.

An incredibly untrustworthy person.

Dunno why you're getting downvoted, you're 100% correct.

Most people aren't on social media talking politics or thinking about any of this outside what they might overhear at church, from family/friends, on TV, shared on Facebook.
