Yes! There is also a very good documentary that shows interviews with survivors who talk about some the people/ children being injected with cyanide at gunpoint and the shootings at the air strip when they were escaping - I think it's this one https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/films/jonestown/#part01
Trump has taken more than one page from the Jones playbook. Jones' son said in an interview that his father would find what you wanted most and what you feared most, then promise to give you one and save you from the other. Sound familiar?
I’m not really great at knowing when people are being sarcastic, but we know they will because they drank bleach at the beginning of Covid when Trump suggested it as a cure! People started showing up at hospitals with poisoning and liver failure. That actually happened.
I just like being a smart ass online, because I'm like that in real life. I just don't like to take life too seriously. It is stressful enough with everything else in life, and I'm not in a hurry to die young from complications of stress.
Not all wanted to drink the kool-aid and a number of the cultists were found with syringes stuck into the back of their necks by Jones' soldiers who were seeing that cultist didn't run away.
That happened at gunpoint. If they didn't drink the kool-aid, they got shot. Kind of like what is happening in this country. Those of us that will not drink it will be held at gunpoint through legislation that removes our rights, then possibly actual gunpoint.
Just like people say they don't know how Germany could stand for what Hitler's SS did to millions of Jews. We have a pretty damn good idea how it happens--and what's happening here is outrageous, sad and deadly. We're not special. History, sociology, human nature. We're creating our own apocalypse.
True! I am sad my cousin may be in the stage of #Grief may be like a death and IDK bcuz 👻 me these 😬🤨 past 3 wks so concern mental status and upset. I text 3X no answer..lives in a bubble so no telling what theer Hierwhata 🙄🌱🦋 for lack of (unpres.) Pushing! Scary! Along #Chaos 🌏🇺🇲 frenzy Shut it down
Yes, now we all understand how Hitler came to power and how Jim Jones stole people’s minds. Monsters like these and the psychopath Trump appear often in world history. Truly great leaders don’t have the
same lust for power— Greta Thunberg, Malala Yousafzai and David Hogg for example.
with AI tech it is now possible to create faked videos of trump ordering his followers to do things. pretty disturbing thing right? lots of fools out there may just be tricked by anyone with the time to use AI and manipulate maga cultists. i bet they could be told to attack police departments :(
Yep a maga con will disconnect their loved one’s life support if con politician said they needed to use out let to charge phone, and with smile, they’d disconnect the life support. That’s how fn disconnected they are. They are not vaccinating their kids.
The people in his cult thought that he would take care of them &they could be like him-wealthy, but he didn’t earn it. It was given to him at birth. He never developed empathy, &he doesn’t care about the people who believe in him. He is a grifter. He cons them so that he can benefit with power & $😳
Yeah. The Jim jones affect will
Show up soon as their lives and 401ks are crashing all around them… guilt and shame season soon. And the hunters tend to target themselves in these sorts of things.
It’s hard, but we should try to prevent that. Save ALL players, ditch the game is what I think 🫶🏻
From my viewpoint,American cults are so dangerous to our populace, especially for our distracted, lost, and disappointed youth. I live in LA, where over the years, I've seen the damage that was done to so many people because of cults. Think Sciencetology and other religious cults that exist here.
We are fighting now to get our democracy back and then it will be time to remember that the only way to avoid this again is to TAKE CARE OF PEOPLE. Don’t let them become so empty and ignorant that they choose to be in a cult.
I watched a documentary and listened to audio. Many did try to resist, but we're held down and forced to drink it. However, that dies not change that many voluntarily did as well. Insane.
He and Putin are both dying. Putin gave a speech where he admitted he and the asset agreed Russia would get Ukraine, Poland and the Balkans, and US will get Canada, Greenland and Panama. Now they are talking about these places just like that, hard to believe it’s a conspiracy theory!
Periodically I'll see some history pedant pointing out that many were forced to drink the poison and/or were shot. Thanks for your service, now STFU. It was a cult, like MAGA, and there is no "final straw" that will wake them up. Quit waiting for them to turn. It's going to require intervention.
If you want to draw a distinction with a relevant difference, point out that the sooner cult at least left and hid. MAGA is here, trying to force us all to drink the koolaid.
Many religious people are much, much more easily duped! They have been conditioned to simply have “faith” without question! Indoctrination is the ticket to Fascism!
Yep. Normal people would say "Watch out! That pint contains cyanide!!", whereas the cultist goes "Bollocks. That pint contains MOSTLY Kool-Aid. Nice, refreshing and tasty Kool-Aid. Num num num num num..."
Guess it's true what they say... Can't fix stupid... It's a Darwin Award kind of thing🤷♂️...

I grew up in the Bay Area and the image of them forcing the cyanide-laced kool-aid down the throats of kids will stay with me forever.
The ones who did not drink the kool-aid, were murdered.
