Every time they’ll be complaining about the price hikes under Trump, just remind them of why they voted for Trump. This is the best course of action against “collective amnesia” as we call it in Hungary.
Things will have to be really really bad for MAGA to notice and then actually acknowledge issues. Even then they might use excuses and blame others.
COVID handling was objectively terrible, with plenty of examples of mismanagement, but they’ve basically completely forgotten about it and the ‘mismanagement’ they might point to are the availability of vaccines, or the ability of workplaces to make people wear masks.
They can also completely ignore the blatant corruption with employing close family members as advisors and diplomats, while on the other side, even leaning on a family name to get a job was too much. Don’t forget that they’ve also come to the conclusion than Jan 6 wasn’t bad.
Which is why every time something bad or good happens, I’ll be posting #ThankRepublicans over and over. People love to bitch, so put it squarely with them.
Oh alongside the loss of benefits they rely on (which I told them about), the pandemic potential with the worst Kennedy, even their friends which are of varying ethnicities and going to be targeted, the list is… Long.
Anecdotal evidence that the right is for the uneducated.
Anecdotally… About 75% of the right that I know/met.
The other 25% is a mix of racism, greed, and conspiracy theory.

How do you come back from it?
uneducatable
Solid distinction.
Religion primed the rubes, and a new godhead told them he is their salvation.
Religion didn’t prime them. Religion merely exploits the same human psychological weaknesses. This is why they go hand in hand.
Hmm. Maybe look up what priming (verb) means.
I know what it means. I guess I didn’t make my point clear enough, that’s on me. I didn’t think I had to write it for an eli5 audience.
Whatever makes you feel better
