    “A lot of libtards, commies, and towel head terrorists!”

    /s

    GOP has appealed to the authority of “the silent majority” for going on 100 years. Post-Evangelical churches, aka christo fascist churches, have also fostered an “us vs them” culture. The non-biblical phrase, “be in the world but no of thew world” is a staple.

    “Everyone (who matters) loves trump” is easier to lie about than “the majority of people love trump” Because the latter requires quantification. But if “everyone loves the dictator” you simply can write off every exception as invalid instead of quantifying them.

    The key is thought termination. Close the loop before any pesky numbers or original thoughts get in. Thats why they all have the same talking points unless you can get to them before MAGA-Steam-Media tells them what to think and they literally can’t form a sentence.
