      I think they’re just fucking stupid.

      Not uneducated people with critical thinking skills.

      Just actually, really, super fucking dumb. There is no nuance to them. Everything is black and white and only happens one way. Life is straight forward, and its hell the whole time. That’s it. That’s the end.

        Oh uh. My comment has a “these” (pronoun) without a specific thing its tied to. I did mean trump voters in general but moreso the people who are outwardly part of it. Fox news. The cabinet. Etc.

          Ah yeah, I definitely narrowed your comment to just apply to the voting base, even though the crazy ass headline in question is being perpetuated by the grifters.

          Thats mah B!

          I do agree though, those who are feeding the voters are insane/unreasonable and evil. And I think they know that their base is dumb enough to accept their grifting “words of wisdom.”

      I’ve been calling MAGA a mental illness for a decade. Everything they have done, and continue to do, indicates severe logical corruption in every sense of the word, and it’s transmissible through propaganda.

      That’s why the USA is cooked, for generations, and is damn near guaranteed to experience civil war &/or Christian fascist dictatorship before anything gets better. There’s no coming back from a mental illness epidemic affecting a double digit percentage of the population.

        Covid seemed like it was going to be a quick filter, but I always forget how idiot sandwiches like to impress their idiocy forcefully upon others
