If you 'know better' then what's stopping you from recognizing that not everyone is cut from the same cloth?

A black person raised to believe in the Nation of Islam might be more militant in their suppor of black rights — does that make what they believe right? No, the NoI is a cult that believes white people were born in a lab 7000 years ago (amongst other crazy bullshit). MAGA is also a cult. You should read up on what defines cults and what kind of people are susceptible to them.

I'm not exactly making excuses for them, I hate MAGA. Nuance here, however, is very important.

You nailed it; recognizing nuance is a critical skill
