Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
- This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

All of the dots were connected for them. All the way from hunters laptop to trans woke Marxist grooming of kids rampant throughout our pretty independently run education systems, Biden's letting millions of criminals into the country to rape and murder our families and inflation that came from... Uhh well they just said it was Democrats fault.
When every mother father sister brother friend coworker and aquantience is getting fed lies 24 hours a day intentionally made to make you hate specific groups of people, "They're raping the dogs!" It gets to the point you don't have to believe everything is true, you just know you can't ever vote for Democrat.
People start to believe things and eat up the lies on accident. A good example is Nancy Pelosi. She has some shit policies and views, but anyone who has ever stated she was involved in insider trading has been a MAGA supporter. Every one. There have never been any evidence that she was involved in insider trading, and people have looked for near 2 decades now, but guess what, people who don't like the way our capitalistic system works, are prone to want to hate or dislike rich people, so they want to believe it's true, and they do. And they spread that misinformation far and wide helping support MAGA. Most didn't do it intentionally, but that's the end result, building support to mistrust and hate anyone left of MAGA. So when the option was MAGA or anyone left of MAGA, a good chunk of people said.. well I guess MAGA isn't that bad.
