My parents are pulling almost exactly this from my aunt and uncle because they're Trump voters.
Not going to tell you that you're wrong, only that it's funny that this is where we've landed when it feels like the world is at 1939.

Something something doomed to repeat it...
Yeah. Israel gets to colonize Gaza, Putin gets Ukraine, and he doesn't have to go to war with the USA because there's a known russian asset as president.
I agree that Trump will end a couple of wars by making sure that the bad guys win them. Just surrender human rights and dignity, let white supremacist dictators take over, let a couple genocides happen, war prevented, great success.
Oh, and meanwhile poor people and LGBT are persecuted in America. Doesn't matter, war prevented.
The stereotypical image of a Trump voter is an overconfident bully, but let this be proof that you can also vote Trump out of complete cowardice. I, recluse nerd, cannot comprehend being so pusillanimous that you put a dictator in power just because you're scared.
I say this as an ex republican, about 10 years free from it. Turn off your media feeds, they are lying to you. They know you will believe it because they think you are stupid.
looks at family
they're probably right.
Yeah, looking back one of the hardest parts of being stuck in the right wing media bubble is accepting how confused I was. College and traveling helped me escape.
He's deleted his comment so idk if they still see replies. My point with unplugging is to reduce the amount constant hate and fear mongering. Right now their whole belief system is built on hate and fear, so they can't argue in good faith. Removing those daily inputs can help most people begin to escape the right wing bubble.
I hope in the coming years you have some luck turning around the people in your peer groups also. (Assuming they are still republicans)
