I don't understand maga people.

Stopped by the bar up north tonight. The usual gang of loud mouths was on one end of the bar yucking it up and making disparaging anti liberal comments. Not towards me but just in general.
They like their drinking, pull rabs, and buy their lottery tickets. Some are retired after years of hard labor. Not sure if any of them are still married. They have a lot of pride in being self sufficient but I'm not sure if they really are. Most if not all are dependent on one or more government programs but spend a lot of money on alcohol, or pot. They distrust minorities, all are white. I know a lot of them had difficult childhoods as their parents were alcoholics and were poor. I kinda doubt they will change as long as they are together. Individually, they probably could learn empathy and compassion for all people, but not as a group. They reinforce each others fears. I think that rhe only way this type of insanity can change is with deaths. When enough of the loud mouths disappear perhaps the remainders will listen to reason.

@Tastyfrzz sorry I had to do this here cause I have that jack4ss blocked...
They are not PBS viewers that's for sure.
I am guessing they do not listen to NPR either? Bssically the radio version of PBS.

@trollslayer
Some of them are annoying but sometimes contribute to the conversation. I refrain from blocking them.


I am typically slow on the block, someone has to be a REAL jack4ss, or serious spammer, for me to block.

Unless it is someone I enjoy aggravating like Sunsporter. 😁
