  • This is why I have genuinely no respect at all in the world for Trump voters and supporters. If you’re smart enough to understand that this is bullshit, then you’re with him because he’s enriching you at the cost of everyone else or because you actively want his bigoted policies to hurt innocent people just for the sake of it.

    If you’re not, then you’re not only a complete fucking idiot, but you’re willfully a complete fucking idiot. “Complete fucking idiot” doesn’t even begin to describe it, though; it’s too generous. There aren’t words in an English dictionary to capture it. I could say “brain-damaged”, but I would genuinely expect someone who just awoke from an insular ischemic stroke to be a better critical thinker. “Brainwashed”, I mean I guess that’s the closest thing there is, right? Straight-up cult behavior. But it even somehow feels dumber than a traditional cult.

    It’s like necrotic chunks of grey matter are sloughing off their brain in real time. Their stupidity is bottomless because they’ll believe literally anything when they’re told to, and after that it’s impossible to amass enough evidence to talk them out of it because they’re not just too braindead to understand the evidence; they’re too braindead to understand the concept of evidence. Flat Earthers have more respect from me as critical thinkers and as human beings. I would trust a group of 500 unmedicated, severely sleep-deprived paranoid schizophrenics to decide on policy before I would 500 Trump supporters.
