Let me break this down:

Openly defying court orders multiple times= dictatorship Threatening to jail political opponents despite them being pardoned= dictatorship Deporting American citizens who have legal citizenship= dictatorship Can’t put it any simpler.

      They literally don’t care. All they want is to win an argument against leftists in the moment; they actually see it as a weakness to be beholden to facts.

      They’re playing a different “game” entirely, one where rhetoric is more important than reality.

        This point should be understood by all - they’re programmed to get a dopamine hit in the moment by pissing you off.

        They’re not arguing in good faith and all the time you spend making rational statements is a waste. Nobody is keeping a scorecard that punishes them for losing an intellectual discussion.

        The opposition to MAGA has to find a new path, because applying rational arguments in discussions ain’t going to work.

          This is why calling them weird was sort of effective. It’s not a fact, it’s an opinion. Now, I think it’s a widely held opinion, but the point is it wasn’t something they could argue with. It was sort of playing the game they’ve been playing.
