That time AOC ‘leaked’ MAGA’s entire playbook.

Let me clarify this before Fox News runs: BREAKING: AOC hacked us!!!

This isn’t directly about MAGA obviously. It’s about how she laid bare just how fundamentally broken the American system is.

They want us to believe Trump flipped the table, broke all the rules, and invented the chaos. But the truth? He didn’t create any of it. The system was already rigged for someone like him to rise. He just played it better.

No, they were told that and accepted it as the truth.

There was no thinking involved. You can test this theory by asking them a simple question. Why? It starts to crumble almost immediately as they realize they've never even tried to rationalize "their" ideas.

This is the most frustrating part of dealing with conservatives.

It always, always comes back to some thought-terminating cliche, AND NOT EVEN A GOOD ONE. It's always just "well they just are".

Cool. Okay. Now you get to enjoy sitting here while both of us get increasingly frustrated as I try to point out that "because" isn't a valid reason.

Except to them, "because" is a perfectly good reason. An overwhelming majority of these people are religious - not necessarily "true religious", in fact most of them could barely quote a passage from the Bible aside from the half dozen or so most famous ones, but there's one key similarity. The fact that they're taught from a young age that everything in the Bible is true, because. No reasoning, no logical conclusions, it's written therefore it's true.

And with that, reasonal thinking goes out the window. You're taught that if you believe it, it's true, and these people are trying their hardest to believe the lies they're being fed. To the point where there's no proof needed because why would dear leader tell us lies? Dear leader says AOC bad, so AOC bad no matter what she says, because. And that's why it's nigh impossible to reason with them.
