    33% of Americans approve of:

    Child trafficking and rape

    Collapse of rule of law

    Shifting the tax burden entirely onto the poor

    Mass kidnappings of minorities and dissidents

    The building of concentration camps

    Illegally kidnappibg foreign leaders

    Raping developing countries of their resources

    Unnecessary, unprovoked and illegal wars of aggression

    Bombing of little school girls

    Genocide of Palestinians

    Genocide of Hispanic Americans

    Genocide of anyone not white

    Rampant stagflation

    Collapse of any semblance of the American dream

    And that’s just scratching the surface

      I know it’s not an excuse, but I doubt they all know and knowingly support all of this. There’s plenty of people utterly un- or misinformed about what’s going on in the world or inside the US. There was this video recently where they interviewed beach-goers about the Iran war. They barely even knew what a war or Iran was.

          Because you can’t dismiss 30% of a population. They need to at least partially be taken along, just because they’re too many to just declare war on.

          Let’s declare war on a more manageable percentage and definitely without compromising core values. So we gotta pierce the bubble of the misinformed, but defeat the ones who misinform out of malice and self interest.

        I know the video you’re talking about.

        I doubt a bunch of random fuck beach going horny frat bros are the best metric for measuring gauging the degeneracy and malice of the average right winger.

        We’ve far exceeded the point where MAGA ignorance and MAGA malice have converged, and are one in the same. Behind them is a river of blood that only grows.

        And when confronted with reality, invariably they will choose to reject reality, rather than come to terms with their actions. They are all simply evil, ignorance or intention be damned.
