The painful effects of the Musk/Trump fuckery have not been realized yet. Propaganda and selective polling are keeping most MAGAs satiated for now. While nobody wants anyone to suffer, with the exception of those who purposely inflict it, suffering is the only way to break the spell. - ThreadSky

It's looking like August they are all going to turn on him, with the steady decline of his approval rate and historic declines from similar presidents, it's looking like august. :-)

Not soon enough - the damage is done. 🤬🤬🤬🤬

I figure MAGA starts to feel it en masse in about 2 months. It will take time for the effects to cycle through. There are individuals and some groups that are being hit already. But the day to day lives of MAGA depend on services that it will take time for the damage to hit.

We must bottom out before we go back up.

I often find myself hoping the worst isn't over for this very reason. Otherwise, it'll be another 40 years of oligarchy lite with this administration dismissed as an aberration and not the endpoint of a generation of ideological drift that it is.

When you can't apoeal to intellect, pain usually works.
Sad but that's the reality.

Yep. I’m here for it. I’ll do what I can to reduce the suffering in my local blue community but I won’t lift a finger for MAGA.

It can take insane suffering tho.

I believe this to be an accurate accounting at this point in time...the tide is still receding, when the tsunami wave breaks on shore that will be the spell breaker.
That is the literal breaking point.
Hopefully not too late.

I don’t think people realize it until it disrupts their life in some way. This dystopian nightmare we’re living in is getting harder to watch each day. But we must persist. Love and light to you all!

I hope it works, on at least enough of them to make a difference. It is our only chance. There are some who I fear will never learn. Remember those people dying of COVID, still insisting it wasn’t real? They died believing the lies. Not sure economic pain will be enough for some.

Many will never change. It's a pride thing. Sad but true.

We need to drive around in the Blues Bros car in MAGA country announcing all the shit that is happening. Maybe they’d see this is also effecting them.

I agree 100%. The addicts need to bottom out. There is no other way.
