You know that makes me want to post
Back in 2016, there was something amazing: /r/TheDonald/
I was following that in amazement. Donnie T capitalized on the army of detached dummies (deplorables) that had been cultivated by decades of Fox News (-style media). They were so detached that even mainstream republicans couldn't get a hold - Donnie T would just go further.
And by the time the 2016 election got closer, that /r/ would just go more unhinged. All the Dems and old Reps were (satanist) pedo's and if Donnie jusy got elected, he'd have them hang before the end of his first month.
Crazily, the rest of them never opposed them. They didn't call them out on it. They just went along as if they were some kind of aligned faction.
Of course after they won there were some holdouts wondering out loud when the massive pedo roundups were going to happen, but after a while that fizzled out.
Most of them are more than happy to ally themselves with the complete loonies
It clicked for me when I noticed that a lot of MAGA were just trolling. They go out in their "regalia" with Trump flags flying and see who they can bother. They like it when they get to yell and scream at "the libs" when they get yelled at for their flag ... its a social game.
Its the same as listening to each other tell obviously fake stories. "What?!? JFK Jr. is not dead? He is coming back to be Trumps running mate?" "What? Micheal Jackson isn't dead?"
Corporate billionaires then weaponized this. Hatred sells. That is a commercially proven fact. The woke agenda is born. Trans hatred. Gay pride. They focused in on things that made MAGA a little uncomfortable and started telling their own lies and stories about them and MAGA goes along with it because they dont want to get kicked out of "the game".
