People out here acting like MAGA has ever needed a rational reason to do anything.
Here, here's your script:
"He's a communist Islamic terrorist sent here by Jews to replace white people"
Go ahead, argue with that. Take it apart, dismantle it piece by piece, expose in vivid detail why every word of this sentence is a lie. The only response will be a shit-eating grin and "You're a triggered liberal".
Its infuriating watching history repeat itself. Do you have any idea how many well-educated Weimar liberals carefully dissected Nazi talking points and debated them to hell and back? And every time they were met with the same leering grins, because the people you are arguing with do not care about reality, they care about their narrative, and watching you twist yourself into knots wasting your time debating them on things they don't actually care about is entertainment for them.
You cannot use rationality to appeal to irrational people. Stop pretending you got 'em and there's no way they can wiggle out of it this time. They aren't constrained by the laws of reason.
That’s true but MAGA is the nasty cult of Trump and his current hardcore support is at about 37 million - about 10% of the US population. It’s shocking it’s so high but they aren’t taking over any more than they already have and he’ll be out by 2029 even if he’s not dead. We still will face the wealth and income inequality that (history repeats) leads to the rise of demagogues, conspiracy theories and false populists like Trump unless until we get leaders like El Sayed, Mamdani, AOC, et al to help get us back on track.
The solution is to outrun them. You waste time engaging with their lies because they can always just tell more. Say the things that are true and get shit done. The more time you spend climbing into the pig pen with a bunch of glassy eyed hogs that want to drag you into their filth the less time you spend getting shit done.
