GOP Syndrome
I think I’ve figured it out. The corpus of the modern GOP must be suffering from Korsakoff’s Syndrome.
There are six major symptoms of Korsakoff’s syndrome:
1. anterograde amnesia and
2. retrograde amnesia, severe memory loss
3. confabulation, that is, invented memories which are then taken as true due to gaps in memory sometimes associated with blackouts
4. meager content in conversation
5. lack of insight
6. apathy - the patients lose interest in things quickly and generally appear indifferent to change.
Let’s do this one in pictures:
amnesia
invented memories, memory gaps
meager content in conversation
lack of insight
apathy, indifference to change
Tragic, isn’t it?
