Totally personal, but I have to take a moment to thank you because you just improved my life dramatically. I’ve been going through a lot and the last ten years have effectively turned me into the worst version of myself. It is incredibly difficult to justify doing anything in a world this shitty. But you, unprompted, pointing out that I live in the worst place possible gives me a little hope that maybe, just maybe, life isnt supposed to be like this everywhere.
Also, living in Oklahoma, I can tell you with 100% certainty of this: Trump has changed nothing in these peoples minds. They believe that Trump is ordained by God. You cannot argue with this people. There is NO logical train for them to follow. I dont think people realised how serious Trump was when he said he could shoot someone on wall street and he wouldnt lose support. Trump is single handedly the most dangerous person in this country, because half of the country believes he can fundamentally do no wrong. If Trump does it, its not illegal. I would even go so far as to say its dangerous to court these people. They have established that they do not fit in society, they use “God” as justification for breaking legal and societal rules. The precident here is wildly dangerous: but not making an example out of Trump that theocracy will not be tolerated, we are signing the death knoll on democracy.
Democracy is built on discussion and compromise. These people are physically incapable of doing so, because to do so would misalign them with God and condemn their eternal soul to damnation. There is fundamentally nothing you can do to get these people unbrainwashed, beacuse to unbrainwash them is to send them to Hell.
Anyone who has changed their mind on Trump this year is dangerous. It just means they dont think this brand of fascism is working. But the fact that theyve supported him for this long means theyll hop on the next fascist train. Theyre not concerned with the actual problem he represents, theyre only concerned that his brand of fascism is hurting them in the now.
