What are the solutions though? I don’t think this descent stops until the MAGA crowd gets most of what they want and realize it sucks ass to live that way which is going to come with a lot of pain for everyone. They’re clearly not willing or able to learn from history, think through policies without experiencing the negative consequences personally, or distinguish reality from propaganda and/or wishful thinking. What options for resolution does that leave us with?
The only thing I can see that might work is fighting them off until enough of the old folks in their camp die and hoping the younger crowd doesn’t follow in their footsteps. That’s not a particularly appealing plan but I’m not sure what else is on the table.
