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.
Given what the USA considers rightwing (lunatic) compared to Europe, I’d rather ignore tankies when they go further than I prefer. I at least agree with them some of the time. USA rightwingers are deranged even if they aren’t in the MAGA sphere.
We had shooters killing doctors already in the 90s and it’s only got worse since then.
I’ll take a non-maga right wing user over a tankie any day. It’s not even close.
How many of those are left? Two, three?

Why? It’s similar but worse, driven by irrational anxiety with less reason and more potential to do the world harm…
