Have you considered people are moving further right because your labeling them as such?
People are hurting and the right is blaming people (because that's what the right always does), and people are eating it up. I've got a bunch of friends that are currently drinking the hate-machine cool-aid, but when I ask them questions to explain why they hold those views, they just simply can't answer - propaganda works.
For example, a good friend of mine last week said in a car full of people he wished everyone in California died of a massive nuclear blast and he would throw a party on the news of their millions of deaths. I called him out about it to explain why - he said the governor was fucking everything up. I asked for a specific detail, he couldn't think of one other than yelling woke woke woke. I asked him what woke means, he said he doesn't know but it's bad - gays and rainbows and trans and something about he has to like it. Needless to point out that he is a victim of the hate machine (his kid came out as trans, and I asked if he wanted his kid to be mistreated, and of course he wants the best for his kid...)
People don't form these opinions where they wish the death of millions of unknown people all on their own, and they usually get echo chambered into those extreme views first.
Yeah propaganda works just like how it has worked on you.
You don't see me wishing for the deaths of everyone in some state because my news channel tells me the governor of that state is a bad guy - perhaps if you actually had something better to say we could discuss this topic
No one is immune from propaganda not even you.
That's the saddest, softest, snowflake excuse you could use.
It's because you call us rapists we just have to do all that rapin'. Dontcha know.
The dumbest excuse.
I'm sorry but fried chicken isn't racist, it's just fried chicken.
Jesse, what the fuck are you talking about?
Exactly it is exactly how you sound, conservative does not equal Nazi or fascist. Actual Nazis don't believe in freedom of speech and would murder you without giving you a chance to criticise.
