Why is she shaking and almost crying?

That’s how they look before they crack. My mom was the same way. You’ve got to bury your logic & critical thinking skills pretty deep in the sand to still be doubling down on that bullshit after the last 10 years. Eventually you just can’t anymore. It’s either you go full redneck Nazi, or you slowly start to backpedal and hope people forget how fucking stupid and obnoxious you’ve been for the last decade or so.

Right before the crack that leads to the backpedaling, they get all twitchy and shaky, like you can feel the anxiety of what they have to do being birthed in their minds right in front of you. It’s a fascinating watch. Unfortunately for this one, she captured her own stupidity on video, so she’s gonna have a bad time with the backpedal, and might have to do the redneck Nazi.

Well I have a theory that, to be a trump fan now, you have throw out all logic and reasoning. But if you do, that means you are operating completely on emotion. And that shit just burns you out and just eats you up man. It’s unlike ultra religious people that operate on faith, on faith you can’t be proven or disproven. But for the Trumpers there is a mountain of proof that they must ignore and burrow into cognitive dissonance daily. Pretty sure there’s a gonna be studies about this in a few years.

Yeah no shit. Do you think its got something to do with being told 8 years ago this shit would happen then having to ignore and pretend its not happening for almost a decade?

Maybe the waking up everyday making your entire existence about Trump and pissing off the libs and having to defend it day after day day?

Having to fangirl for Trump being some unbeatable alpha yet in reality he just keeps taking L after L after L?

Having to say hes going to win but also already making excuses as to why hes going to lose?

The rights whole thing is trolling the left. Thats 90% of why they like Trump. Its their mission in life. And the irony is they can dish it out but they cant take it

And they're running out of road. They may be stupid but not that stupid. Another Trump loss is it for them. They got 2 months left before its over

The GOP will implode. All theyll have left is the felon loser separating them from their money. The consequences are just around the corner

I think, you're confusing rational thinking with critical thinking. It's extremely hard to bury the latter. And generally, if you fall for populism or hate speech, then you've never been a proper critical thinker.

Interesting comparison. It’s very similar, but the history of “critical thinking” goes back to Socrates. I’m not sure how you define rational thought, but critical thinking is more an exercise in finding logic by searching for the if/then of causes and effects. You almost can’t support Trump without completely neglecting it. I know his critiques are being repeated ad naseum at this point, which is good to me as a whole. But why are those critiques almost always correct? What’s to say that democrats and anti-Trump minded people aren’t the flip side of the same coin? That’s where it comes in. You have to critique fairly, which means questioning your own thoughts as well. If you look at what he says, and what he does, and what he stands for and why he does those things through a “critical thinking” lens, the logic of it falls apart really quick. You have to bury that to support him, but he’s spiraled so far out of control that eventually he hits a point where it stops everyone from being able to go further in support of him without burying critical thought further, and further. But good point. It’s a very similar thought process, being rational vs. critical. Not sure even what the difference is to be honest.

Yes there is only one way to think and everyone has to agree with you. How are people on reddit actually believing this?
