    In the same way they believe the civil war was about states’ rights.

    They’re lying to make their position seem less outrageous.

      Some of them, yeah. A lot of them are just dumb as rocks, and have been duped into thinking that what they’re doing is moral.

        Right wing in general is full of the easily deceived and hateful.

        2 main tactics used is to either convince the stupid people you’re on their side helping them with their ideals, or that the things they hate are a threat and you’re the only one who can save them.

        It’s a shame it’s turned into this, and that right wing went so crazy that left wing is now just about not letting them destroy the world.
