Trumpers will never admit they were wrong or duped, because would mean the libs were right. No matter how much they lose on meme coins, or donate to causes that never happen, or get left behind with no transportation, they will NEVER admit they were wrong.
Because they would instantly be blacklisted from every group they’re apart of, much like a flat-earther finally admitting the truth. Their other friends and family have likely let them go from their lives, meaning the only people they have left are other trumpers.
They are more terrified of being alone than they are of living a lie.
Trumper human beings. They make mistakes and have bad opinions. Last week I met a Trumper who argued for an hour about how Covid wasn’t real. This week he was talking about civil war because he has realized what the administration is doing to him and people he cares about.
Never forget that our enemies are people. While they may not deserve your compassion, if you give it anyway, they will learn to see that they can deserve it and would like to. Treat them as individuals, not an out group
