Trump/MAGA has ruined sports
There have not always been WHAT? Dude. I’ve got a faded facial scar from a minor injury in 1987 that says otherwise. Are you not old enough to remember the huge expansion of Nazi skinhead groups and very familiar right wing extremism in the 80s? David Duke? Pat Buchanan playing footsie with white nationalists? Randy Weaver? Look at Reagan in this picture. He kicked off his campaign for President with a states rights speech in 1980. Do you not realize where he is standing? Who do you think he is talking to? It is not different today. It’s just more open.

I don’t want to be a jerk here, but you all this chaos and clown-college fuckery is bad for you, right? Like there’s a direct connection here.

And cruelty. Dont forget the cruelty, it’s the main point.

But we aren’t talking about right wingers. We are talking about reachable normies. They exist. Just like they did in 1981, 91, 2003, and 2007. I disagree and I’m not going to indulge this myth of the good old GOP. The party is basically the same under Trump as it has been since Reagan. They just took the mask off. When he’s not posturing, for example, @Brisketexan will admit that Reaganomics were always bullshit, just like Bush-era “compassionate conservativism” was. He just didn’t know that yet. He was just like the Normies today. They don’t know yet, just like he didn’t know. So he left. The party didn’t leave him. some of them will leave too. I know a lot of the anger former Republicans feel towards Trump is driven by nostalgia for what the party used to be, but the party hasn’t been that for 45 years. So their nostalgia is just longing to plug back into the matrix.

We crossed the Rubicon in 1981, and I’ve heard lefties saying that there were no normie Republicans my whole life. And yet here you are, despite spending about that time as a Republican normie. It’s like the people who move to Austin griping about the people who want to move here and how it’s different now. If you were redeemable, or to the extent that you were, there are plenty more of you where that came from. So, speaking as a native, welcome to the ledge. Nice to have you. All are welcome as long as like to throw things and your aim is good.

Minneapolis ICE Murder
Minnesota’s favorite citizen journalist, the guy who started all this speaks:

It turned into doomerchat because the cabal has a case of the mondays and doesn’t want to hear that winning is their job.

@Thatguy that’s funny, but I am not the proxy for squishy white liberals that you want. That’s pure projection by you.

“Anyone who’s paying attention” doing some very heavy lifting. The majority of the voting population never really pays close attention. It’s the privilege of growing up in a stable western democracy. And unfortunately the only way to learn it’s unstable is to start paying attention or something getting your personal attention. Like I know for a fact the ICE thing is having a huge negative impact among normies on the Republican brand in Minnesota and Wisconsin.

ICE activity/raids

Wait. Yes I do know. @Captainant we’re talking about different people. You’re conflating casual, mostly apolitical R voters with the ~40% of R voters that are committed, hardcore MAGA and will actively support anything the regime does. I’m not talking about harcore MAGA. I’m talking about how you begin to reach and then deprogram the others.

No, it’s not that at all or in any way. Not sure how you even get here.

Me too. Quite a few of them were literally screaming at me for owning guns a decade ago. I think this ICE bullshit drove the point home for them. Now I'm suddenly giving pointers.- Trump/MAGA has ruined sports
Some people are beyond reaching but some are not, and we can only save ourselves by saving them, too. How you provide info matters, but I have no idea what you are talking about with the "can't go hurting their feelings" business. I'm a big believer in "challenger selling" as applied to political pursuasion, but it's only possible if the object of your pursuasion accepts that you wish them well. Here's what that looks like. How you motivate them is individual. Civic minded people in rural areas might be motivated by library closures or public school defunding. Grandparents might by motivated by a teenage grandkid calling them out (I've seen this one in person and it was amazing). But it only works if they know you aren't their enemy. - Wordle [spoilers inevitable but discouraged]
