drinking the kool-aid

refers to accepting something blindly without thought or criticism.
Linked with Cults and mass poisonings.

The phrase “drinking the Kool-Aid” refers to followership at its worse. It was coined after a delusional, pseudo-guru named Jim Jones led his cult, the Peoples Temple, to mass suicide. Over 900 people, including 304 children, killed themselves by drinking from a vat of grape-flavored drink laced with cyanide.

church lady kool-aid

Church lady kool-aid is kool-aid but doesn't have much of the powder mix in it. It tastes really bad, or just like water, because of the lack of sugar and taste. The name comes from the way an older lady would make kool-aid with less sugar, sort of "more healthy".
Person 1: Dude, is this just colored water?

Daily Kos (Daily Kooks)

Daily kooks 30 something and can typically be found in their parents basement about to,in the middle of or just finished whacking off to old Liberace posters. They pride themselves as being "enlightened", but when faced with a debate of substance, they start sputtering bumper sticker slogans such as "Bush Lied, troops Died" or Jesus was an organizer and Pointus Pilot was a Governor". If this doesn't work, then they resort to throwing food and running off like pansies.

They preach about how the government is so bad while leaching untold amounts of money from the government under the guise of "welfare". Usually they use the tactics of Saul Alinsky when they don't get their way or losing an argument, they go to ridiculing and making up stories to fit their agenda. No need to visit this sight unless you are depressed, suicidal or need a good laugh. Usually can be found wearing Obama t-shirts stating "change-Delusions you can believe in".
