| Dear Conservatives, I Apologize |
| 2023-03-12 |
| [NaomiWolf] My "Team" was Taken in By Full-Spectrum Propaganda There is no way to avoid this moment. The formal letter of apology. From me. To Conservatives and to those who "put America first" everywhere. It’s tempting to sweep this confrontation with my own gullibility under the rug — to "move on" without ever acknowledging that I was duped, and that as a result I made mistakes in judgement, and that these mistakes, multiplied by the tens of thousands and millions on the part of people just like me, hurt millions of other people like you all, in existential ways. But that erasure of personal and public history would be wrong. I owe you a full-throated apology. I believed a farrago of lies. And, as a result of these lies, and my credulity — and the credulity of people similarly situated to me - many conservatives’ reputations are being tarnished, on false bases. The proximate cause of this letter of apology is the airing, two nights ago, of excepts from tens of thousands of hours of security camera footage from the United States Capitol taken on Jan 6, 2021. The footage was released by House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) to Fox News commentator Tucker Carlson. Read the rest at the link |

| #8 Airandee and Silentbrick have the truth of it. This whole "almost there" movement is nothing but shtick. Call me when these people vote for and publicly support people not Democrats for election to public office. |

| #7 Maybe another step in her descent into right-wing madness. June 2021, Yahoo News worried - The best-selling author and one-time Democratic Party insider has aligned herself with figures from the political far right. At rallies for her 'Five Freedoms' campaign, Wolf has railed against vaccine passports, mandatory masks, and emergency laws. Maybe just 'ahead of her time'. |

| #5 The fact she and they were completely wrong, means nothing because she flat out says she's not going to change basically. She's just mouthing the words because it's had ZERO impact on what she really thinks. My answer is this: FOAD, you're still the enemy. |

| #1 Naomi Wolf is a pretty important person. Given credit as founder of 3rd wave feminism. Public Intellectual. Wrote extensively for several left pubs, e.g. The Nation. Oddly enough she is anti vax to the point of incoherence. She thought the Covid vax was a software platform inside the body - that got her banned from Twitter back in 2021. |
