The MAGAs are destroying America and their own children too.

They will kill as many American children, or have them spend life in prison, as it
takes to get what they want.

Power, control, money.
And to spread their vicious hatred and violence far and wide.

To destroy everything that made America great.

American children are just collateral damage in the war the MAGAs are waging against the US.

1. We have become that country that Republicans have always warned us about. Immoral.

And it seems to me the Democrats haven’t been the ones that changed

Backed and funded by our enemies.

The country has been turning right in response.

With Xi's help.

There are only two political parties in the US and Putin owns one of them.
Lock stock and barrel.

And all three branches of government.

The destruction of the US government is still ongoing but well under way.
The death of innocent Americans is also ongoing.

Revenge and destruction of the US.

The PutinGOP has won the war they have been waging against the US for decades.

7. They say they love their country, but they hate the "federal government"

Which means to me that they really hate the United States. And agree with Putin.

8. Yes they are only too willing to sell out their country for power and wealth.

It was a no brainer for the GOP and MAGAs.

In addition to power, wealth, control they get to act out their vicious, brutal hatred and violence.
They are out of control sadists with permission to harm as many Americans as possible.

Yes the GOP/MAGAs agree with Putin 100%.

2. They believe they know the "truths".

And, that others (not themselves) are the “misled”. And, they have no responsibility for the divisiveness happening.

I have noticed lately that right-wing people are attempting to exploit certain concepts or values they know will trigger liberals. Truth and divisiveness are good examples. It’s an old playground trick—-“we’re not telling lies, you are.” “You’re treating us like enemies instead of trying to get along”. In a way, it’s cultural gaslighting. It’s also like an emotionally abusive relationship where the offender tries to convince the victim they are really the problem.

I listened to a speaker/author recently who described our current U.S. culture as moving toward nihilism…a culture with no shared sense of objective morality or objective truth. That scared me bc nihilistic societies collapse.

What I would want to say—The “forces trying to manipulate and divide us” do not seem mysterious to me at all. It sucks that those forces are in power and people like you put them there. Nor do the forces trying to manipulate me through fake news seem mysterious. What sucks is that we can’t have objective truth when you put people in power who don’t value that.

4. Yes it is brutal psychopath language. We have been taken over by sociopath abusers.

Who use ruthless strategies to control, punish, brainwash their victims.

The psychopaths are normalizing their brutality to get power, control, money.
And to make Americans docile and compliant.

Like in China and Russia.
