When we are almost all living in shacks with nothing left MAGA will be telling us we are better off.
“Man if it’s this bad under Trump imagine how bad it would have been under Kamala!” Or “At least we kept men out of women’s sports!” I think people who think this will impact Trump’s popularity at all with his core base are delusional and haven’t been to a Trump district. These people will never abandon him. Their devotion to Trump is like a religion. Even if Trump said Christianity is a false religion and all the Christians are stupid for voting for him a decent number of these morons would keep supporting him because everyone is a Trump whisperer and everything he says that they like is true and everything he says that they don’t like is a joke or trolling. There is no God but Trump, and Fox is His Prophet.
You know, your comment just made me wonder, what happened to this Q bullshit? I’m gladly not American, so I sincerely have no clue.
It kind of fell apart when Trump lost in 2020 and Q (a.k.a. Ron Watkins) stopped posting after Jan 6. QAnon style beliefs are pretty mainstream in conservative circles now, but QAnon as an organized set of beliefs kind of fell apart without continuous revelation from Q himself. It’s kind of funny, Q actually posted again a couple years after and nobody really cared because they had sort of moved on. The QAA podcast (formerly QAnon Anonymous) put forth a theory that QAnon arose as a way to explain why Trump wasn’t actually making America great again even though he was president, and so it’s possible that it will come back in the second president. I think it’s definitely possible.
QAnon was the precursor to MAGA. It depended on stories of “deep state conspiracy” to sow distrust in the functional parts of US government, then quietly disappeared once its function was performed.
All this to say, it was a blindingly obvious psy-op that rolled up as many idiots as it could into one giant katamari ball of civil unrest, then loosed that ball toward US elections in a specific effort to remove Democrats from power.
“I’m so glad things are going back to the way they should be!” -my hyper-republican boomer coworker, this afternoon
lots of weirdos who are happy that certain groups get fucked a little more than they will
The people are just garbage. The worst kind of ignorant shit that plagues this country.
You gotta remember this was DECADES of conditioning. These people have been primed for this from birth. For this moment in time, when they could gleefully collapse anything positive remaining about being American.
I really hope your coworker is in their late 50s or 60s so they get the full dose of ‘the way things should be’
“Jesus lived in poverty and he did alright.” - A (thankfully former) coworker who disagreed with my assertion that minimum wage should be livable.
Jesus was also murdered by his government, Ian! That’s not what I’d call alright!
Yeah, but then he came back from the dead, became an instant celebrity, struck it rich from crypto, and had like 4 yachts for each of his girlfriends. Don’t you read the bibble?
