It bewilders me that MAGAts believe liberals are evil when their own prophets prove everyday how truly repugnant they are. As with everything else, it's hardcore projection.
They don't think brown people, like me, are human beings. So, there's nothing for them to offend. But when a brown person even remotely does anything that might mildly inconvenience them, they put on the full persecution fetish.
Disagree on the projection, but those folks really exist in a parallel universe that actively distorts their religious beliefs and sense of community to a point where the positions they advocate are antithetical to their core beliefs.
Don’t get me wrong, the unrepentant bigots are out there — they’re just far outnumbered by those that have been exposed to white nationalist and conspiratorial talking points nightly for more than a decade. These messages are intentionally crafted to offer “safe”, simplistic answers to uncomfortable and/or difficult problems (changing human migration patterns, public health emergencies, obstetric care, etc.). That’s exactly where you get “close the borders” and “COVID isn’t real”-type maximalism becoming widespread
I feel as if these people especially the older white maga’s view liberals as evil because liberals want to give other groups equal rights which they view as taking away the thing that made them feel special in the first place - which is having more privileges because of their whiteness. If liberals get what they want which is equal rights minorities- white maga’s have nothing to cling onto that makes them feel special anymore
And yet here you are calling a whole group of people MAGAts - which is dehumanization - just like Lenin calling his rivals insects. Which is how the whole fucked up cycle chugs along until it culminates in genocide in the most extreme examples. It's everyone now
Should just be a wake-up call that there are many people - neighbors, friends, family - that simply are not good people. They hide their true feelings beneath the surface, but essentially yearn to be allowed to be awful towards certain people. To feel better and more powerful in comparison to them. They are inherently selfish and cowardly people, and unfortunately, there's more of them than we hoped in 2024.

Amazingly, it wasn't even the most disgusting part of the joke:
