It’s because they are scared of the rest of the population of America and the world. Fear, misinformation, and hate are the tools of any authoritarian regime.
I’ve grown up around these ignorant folks. They don’t care about shit unless you toe the line & kiss their ass. I did neither. It was very surreal, unhinged childhood. None of this surprises me. And, it saddens me, infuriates me, and every once in a while triggers my PTSD. Fuck those people.
It really isn't that hard to understand. Hyper-partisan media has been brainwashing people into believing stupid shit since the advent of cable news back in the 1990s. When all you know is what a particular group of media outlets want to tell you, your sense of reality gets warped.
The meme isn't taking into account how millions of people conned by various religions for thousands of years are ripe for being that ignorant and easy to manipulate. Too much of America came pre-conned so they trusted trump's lies.
Please allow this humble, white, cishet, AFAB Canuck, who has lived in the US to share my take: What we are witnessing is a bunch of my people desperately clinging to our 'colonial supremacy'. We're getting our just deserts, tumbling from the tower, and some of us just can't handle it.
MAGA zombies are a one-of-a-kind species. They have so much hate that they don't even care they're part of the collateral damage or mere disposable stooges loathed even by their cult leader.
Right?! That is the right question. I protest at least once a week since shortly after inauguration and, largely, people are supportive as they drive past. The few who flip us off … what do you stand for? More costs? Less science? Less medical resources? I don’t understand!
