The problem isn’t Trump (at least directly)

Yesterday I read comments to a social media post about “chemtrails”. One comment mentioned that he was MAGA and from the other maga folks he knows the vast majority think stuff is being sprayed on them from planes.

And they support Trump because he is “draining the swamp” and uncovering the truth about everything. In other words, they claim chemtrails are happening now despite Trump being in power at the same tome they are trusting Trump to stop them.

Think about that.

The problem is a large segment of our society has cult mentality. It’s not just a political problem.

Well... he just gives people a permission structure to be ignorant and bigotted. 🤷‍♂

If you want to get an idea... just listen to the speeches made during Charlie Kirks memorial service... some of these speeches are wild. Ben Carson was quoting books that can only be classified as conspiratorial anti-communist drivel.

Mark Levin is memed out here by Sunsporter, but just do yourself a favor and read one of his introductions. You get a free sample on Amazon... it's wild.

JD Vance, recently wrote an introduction for a book called "Unhumans" by Jack Posobiec and Joshua Lisec. Just read the introduction, it's the free sample on Amazon. It's crazy.

... but this is all normal in the MAGA echo chamber... and it's also the reason why outsiders can't take these people serious.

@Kwek00

But this is not a book about ideology or politics.

(Quoted from that introduction.)

No, of course it isn't ......

The very word

Unhuman

, especially when used by far-Right people, is a chillingly close translation of that 1930s German concoction, untermensch
