Incredibly dark stuff: "if Trump doesn't win I will kill my kids with carbon monoxide poisoning"

..........

On a cigarette break outside their small business in Ozaukee County, Tina Arthur and Marcella Frank told me they plan to vote for Trump again because they are deeply alarmed by “the cabal.” They’ve heard “numerous reports” that the COVID-19 tents set up in New York and California were actually for children who had been rescued from underground sex-trafficking tunnels.

Arthur and Frank explained they’re not followers of QAnon. Frank says she spends most of her free time researching child sex trafficking, while Arthur adds that she often finds this information on the Russian-owned search engine Yandex. Frank’s eyes fill with tears as she describes what she’s found: children who are being raped and tortured so that “the cabal” can “extract their blood and drink it.” She says Trump has seized the blood on the black market as part of his fight against the cabal. “I think if Biden wins, the world is over, basically,” adds Arthur. “I would honestly try to leave the country. And if that wasn’t an option, I would probably take my children and sit in the garage and turn my car on and it would be over.”

............

But to voters like Kelly Ferro, the mass delusion seems more like a mass awakening. Trump “is revealing these things,” she says serenely, gesturing with her turquoise-tipped fingernails. Americans’ “eyes are being opened to the darkness that was once hidden.”

After yoga in the morning, Ferro says, she often spends hours watching videos, immersing herself in a world she believes is bringing her ever closer to the truth. “You can’t stop, because it’s so addicting to have this knowledge of what kind of world we’re living in,” she says. “We’re living in an alternate reality.”

Letter from Magda Goebbels to Harald Quandt

The Führerbunker on April 28, 1945

My beloved son!

By now we have been in the Führerbunker for six days already — daddy, your six little siblings and I, for the sake of giving our national socialistic lives the only possible honorable end.

You shall know that I stayed here against daddy's will, and that even on last Sunday the Führer wanted to help me to get out. You know your mother — we have the same blood, for me there was no wavering.

Our glorious idea is ruined and with it everything beautiful and marvelous that I have known in my life. The world that comes after the Führer and national socialism is not any longer worth living in and therefore I took the children with me, for they are too good for the life that would follow, and a merciful God will understand me when I will give them salvation (death).

You will live and I ask only one thing form you, that you never ever forget you are a German, never do against your honor, and through your life, see that our deaths won't be in vain.

The children are wonderful ... there never is a word of complaint nor crying. The explosions above are shaking the bunker. The elder kids cover the younger ones, their presence is a blessing and they are making the Führer smile once in a while.

Last night, the Führer took off his golden party pin and pinned it to me. I am proud and happy.

May God help that I have the strength to perform the last and hardest task (killing herself and her children). We only have one goal left: loyalty to the Führer even in death and to be able to end our lives with him is an honor.

Harald, my dear son — I want to give you what I learned in life: Be loyal! Loyal to yourself, loyal to the German people and loyal to your fatherland ... Be proud of us and try to keep us in dear memory ...

(Second page) It is difficult to start a new page, who knows if I can fill it, I would like to give you so much love and strength, and take away all the pain for our loss. Be proud of us and try to remember us with pride and happiness.

We all have to die. Isn't it more beautiful to live less, but with honor and dignity than to have a long life in shameful conditions?

I must finish, Hanna Reitsch is taking this letter, she is leaving again, I embrace you with my most sweet, deep and maternal love.

My dear son, live for Germany!

Your Mother

Exactly.

IIRC, Goebbels' wife wrote a final letter in which she expressed that a world without Hitler wasn't worth living in. She wanted to spare her children the "horror" of a world without him.

They've been brainwashed into believing that we're monsters. You would think that eight years of Obama being President, and the world not ending, would have put the lie to that sort of fear mongering. But I guess not.

It appears that the parents, by suggesting that they will murder their children, based upon election results, are a clear and present danger to the lives of the children. I couldn't give a damn what consenting adults do, but they should have never threatened the lives of the children.

Frightening. Of course, these voters cannot be reached, and they are voting Trump all the way, not because they are "racists" per se as some think (though they may be, or by buying into the propaganda may have bought ideas that are racist), but because they have been programmed to believe a large collection of propaganda and conspiracy theories.

Oh, yes you are. And you are living in an alternate reality, one in which your own children are in danger from you. Somebody needs to call CPS for a visit to Tina Arthur's house, because she is not healthy enough to be trusted with her own kids. Wow.

No sane person would kill themselves and their family because the person they voted for didn't win an election. Like others were saying, CPS should look into these people. I'm scared for those kids. Who would ever say something like that?
