MODERATORS
After 2016 I spent a lot of time on reddit talking to Trump voters to understand why.
Overwhelmingly they believe things that aren't true. Basic misconceptions of the world cascading in on one another culminating into the stupidest vote of their life.
One guy thought Obama was a vain man because he named his healthcare plan Obamacare. When I told him the healthcare plan was called the Affordable Care Act, and that Republicans and the media called it Obamacare as a way to hurt it, his brain couldn't process it because why would the media parrot Republican talking points if they were all biased towards Democrats?
You can understand how this individual would make this mistake. He pays just enough attention to be misinformed. Three generations of right-wing propaganda, the world's most disciplined messaging machine repeating the same lies and half-truths have absolutely run roughshod over this type of person.
meanwhile they voted for a man who puts his name on everything
Yeah, because he tells them that they are righteous in their hatred of everything they fear
They'll forgive him anything, so long as they can hate freely and feel good about it
Why would they call themselves DemonRats if they weren’t actually demonic rats? Checkmate.
This is all according to plan. The owner class needs to keep the plebs stupid.
see: charter schools strangling the public school budgets, so the chuds can turn around and say "look at how bad our schools are doing!", rinse & repeat
*badly. ... but I guess bad grammar is the point.
Which is why the first thing they cut is public school funding
There's a lot of "Heal the political divide" being said to mean "meet them halfway" when what it should mean is the ignorant and prejudiced learn and the media machine dismantled, like how "Heal the healthcare class divide" means "Help poor people see doctors affordably".
I ask them "why is trump calling for the deaths of politicians if you agree there's too much political violence and dissonance?" Well they didn't hear it on fox news that he called for their deaths so it's probably the woke media lying. They will ask for everything and give nothing.
And also they don't care that much so they won't look into it (look into it, i.e. click 1 link to his post calling for politicians to be killed). And even if he did do it he was probably joking. And even if he wasn't they found 1 insane person on YouTube who is calling for people's deaths too, which is the same as the president that they elected saying it to hundreds of millions of people I guess.
Reddit post of a MAGA explaining they're all in on Trump, don't care, never will, stop trying to argue with them in their own words.
