MAGA in a nutshell.

This is why I sometimes think this country would be doomed even if Trump, Musk and Project 2025 were flushed down the toilet tomorrow. I try not to think that way but it really is difficult some days.

I wonder if she voted for Trump in 2024.

buckley19608.bsky.social•4 days ago

I'd bet a lot of money that she did. Which is more likely: she got radically different friends and started following radically different news, or she revised her memory and rationalized everything bad as the Democrats fault and got excited that this time he'll have a freer hand

America is filled with people that feel that way. Let people starve just not me. Let people lose jobs just not mine. Let people be deported just not my family. Over and over we see this.

It’s soul crushing to see how simultaneously ignorant and psychopathic his followers are. Like if she hadn’t been negatively impacted, she be fine with other people suffering.

They should’ve asked the follow up question, “WHO are the people he needs to be hurting, in your opinion?” Make her say it with her chest!

White people have been telling Democrats and the left to FUCK OFF for YEARS. They DON’T FUCKING CARE who gets hurt they don’t care if they and their own families get hurt because they know The Other

She seems SO NICE!

“Not hurting the people he needs to be hurting” about sums it it. The cruelty is the point.

It's 1000000% aggrievment for his followers. They believe they are owed everything in this world . And if they don't get it, ( and or someone they deem less worthy does get whatever) there will be hell to pay

Well that is a nice distillation of the maga philosophy, clearly spelling out that the main goal and motivation is to watch trump hurt others. Even when the topic is disaster relief, and she’s in need of help, she’s focusing on how to she wants to see more harm to others…

I think about this quote all the time. It perfectly sums up the calculation of Trump voters.

This is the sort of quote one can read and become a devout acolyte of a nuclear apocalypse.

I hate this world. I hate that I'm here. I hate everyone who put me here, told me I wasn't, and lied to me when I said it was being built around me and everyone else.

I know there is good. But why bother?

samoart.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yes and I am
So baffled by the desire of any American to hurt Americans who haven’t hurt them or done anything but ensure their world is more fair.
