    1. God is punishing us all for allowing the gays and the trans and abortion to exist, and not mandating bible study in k-12.

    2. General misdirect toward incompetent government bureaucracy being the culprit, therefore we should get rid of more of it and privatize more stuff.

    3. Its all because of private and public DEI hires of illegal immigrants who also don’t work and get too many benefits thus bankrupting us

    4. Secret deepstate illuminati cabal runs everything, we need more sweeping authoritarian powers to stop them

    1 - 3 basically are the talking points they’ve used since the 80s, 4 has always been there but is now openly used for about a decade.

      Yeah it is just mind boggling how these things can just pile up, and people are able to ignore the cognitive dissonance (or have trained themselves to get rid of it completely).
