There's the kicker. Cause I firmly believe that, with more education (not indoctrination) by itself, conservativism would be made up entirely of the lowest 10% of intelligence, and those in the upper 0.5% of wealth (well, those who aren't already included from the former).
Cause no way in hell do this many regular average people care that greatly about the latest week's GOP bullshit. Not a chance. Its fear that motivates them to seek a solution, but lack of education that makes it so effective at falling for.
We gotta live with them, so we better figure out how to teach adults who don't have to be in school for years. Or learn how to live with needing to kill or exile them.
Well part of the plan is to attack public school funding sooooo…
I won't claim its all a grand plan or conspiracy, though I do think thats totally possible.
Its really just a time-tested quality of societial power struggles, it might very well be just a shitty coincidence.
It’s absolutely a grand plan, and they’ve even written it all down. It’s called project 2025, and it’s their carefully engineered play by play for exactly this and more.
It is currently, but education of the current voting populace began, and began to fail, long before 2025.
Believe me, i'm accutely aware of 2025. I'm preparing as best as my homeless trans ass can atm, in case me and my chosen peeps feel it best leave in a hurry.
And, while it spells out lots of shitty policy for the trumpers, I very seriously doubt that the concept isn't much more than an assembly of 1. Stating the obvious, and taking the reigns / credit for, the exploitations started by men who are long dead. 2. A group of groups/shakey collective, and their ideas on how to "take over" the government in a very "you won't believed this loophole" sort of way.
Is it possible they even mostly succeed? Abso-fucking-lutely, and I worry that its very very likely.
If the left, and those hurt by their own right leaders, cannot manage to stop this, within or outside of the government... and considering how so many opportunities to do that between now and then... then we deserve it. And i'll gtfo this place, or die trying if it comes to that.
But, given how trump post-election, no longer holds that weighty 2nd term value to the media and politicians alike, I suspect all that trump loyalty dramatically decease before midterms.
Don’t forget about racism and other bigotry 🎉!
Racism takes root out of people's fear, and that fear is genuine, although likely obscurred.
Fear that can lead to racism can just simply be a genuine "other race will hurt me" But I'd argue thats only true for the people starting out with the lowest of the low in mental capacity.
More often though, the fear that leads to racist values and occasionally genuine fear of another race is a fear of death.
All it takes is for someone a person holds in high enough reguard convincing them that death might be coming sooner because of "the others".
And death in the broadest sense of not just a loss of life, but also losing ones way of life. From there, you can point out whatever "others" you'd like, and the bigger the group you can simply define, the more efficient it is. And the dumber a person, the easier it happens.
I'd include bigotry, sexism, even greed boil down to that too.
I don't think nobody out of the upper 0.1% of the US would gain by their policies (and those mostly vote against them), and 90% of the people in it would probably lose too. For the 0.01%, it's a matter of valuing short or long term gains and actual wealth as opposed to "Hah! Suffer you poor! I'm better than that!"
