I remember before 2016, I had respect for some right-wing folk online who, while far from agreement with me, I regarded as simply legitimately misguided (in a “Free markets because gubmint bad”) kind of way.
It was… eye-opening to see how many of them went mask-off in the Trump years, and how fast and fiercely they did it.
How many of those are left? Two, three?

People outside the USA exist. We have many stupid right wingers too but also many that I can respect (just sadly hardly any of them in politics)
In my country I’m also center-right, but from an US-american view I’m a communist. I cannot believe how one can even consider voting for Trump.
