Okay this is sorta funny but can we talk about how terrifyingly ideologically steadfast MAGA chuds are

[-] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 17 points 9 months ago

Yes, but the totality of their ideology as they understand it is "own the libs." That's why they love Trump. That's why they did this. That's why they did the field trip to the Capitol building.

That's why they get so shocked when one of them gets shot trying to get into the floor of Congress, or why any of them got arrested etc. Standard Chuds don't really understand any more than libs do, neither understand the consequences of any of this. All chuds want is someone to "own the libs." All libs want is to assuage their guilt and affirm meritocracy by voting blue (aka the adult in the room who will make the hard decisions)

All chuds want is someone to "own the libs."

Just wait until they finally figure out they're also libs.

I genuinely believe they just do whatever the TV tells them to do. If they ran Elmo non-stop on Fox he'd be the frontrunner

If that was the case, they would never have picked Trump in the first place.

Trump was on TV 30 weeks a year and promoted by NBC, MSNBC, CNBC, and FoxNews as an elite businessman. Every single conservative TV personality during that time said “America should be run like a business “

They listened to the TV even better than you could imagine.

[-] RuthlessCriticism@hexbear.net 2 points 9 months ago

The TV told them, "do not vote for Trump", and yet they did. There is no way around that simple fact.

[-] Dr_Gabriel_Aby@hexbear.net 6 points 9 months ago

The TV told them for 12 straight years “Trump is the best businessman in the country,” and yet he wasn’t. There is no way around that simple fact.

[-] Tunnelvision@hexbear.net 2 points 9 months ago

The TV has never told anyone to do anything, that’s not how advertising works. It’s heavily implied which is different and Trump is easily the most implied president in American history.
