Punishing a politician by electing one who is even worse according your own standards. In my country, this is called "voting for the fox because the rooster is crowing out of tune".

There are some reasons why you can have an incomplete picture of maga.

-If you live in an information bubble where the only thing you see are from bootlickers.

-If you have been raised by a politically charged family, if not in a -literal or not- cult.

-If the cognitive dissonance makes you ignore some things unconsciously.

And among the testimonies on the site, there are people who were supportive to MAGA while being aware of what they are, then did an heel-face turn.

It's pretty courageous to change our mind about politics and admit we were wrong or blindfolded. Instead of being stubbornly mad at them, we should support them.

TLDR: bigotry and denial are stronger than self preservation.

It looks like the OP didn't read the rules and took the community title at face value.

Strong case of pot calling the kettle black (no pun intended).

Strange how the right is easily forgiven for crushing its voters base while people have no problem to harshly punish the left.

Never heard about the guy before his death, but to my credit, i live in Europe. Paradoxically, his death looks like a benediction for the reps, they have now a new pretext to cancel or condemn the dems, they just have to look a bit too happy about his assassination.

Even if you were a furry, you wouldn't deserve death threats. I'll never understand why furries attract so much hate.

To be fair, Russia has never been really democratic, that makes the supports for face eating leopards more comprehensible, if not excusable.

Yeah, really weird, they shoot themselves in the foot at the worst possible time.

Well, Elon is a strong case of pot calling the kettle black.

That's pretty unfair to blame Russians for what is happening to them. Their country has never been remotely democratic, they don't have any control over what their governments is doing, and have virtually no chance to even hope to overthrow Putin since it ended very badly for the ones who tried. I'll even say that people on this videos are real heroes since what they are saying could be enough to send them in jail.

à 90% approval is to be expected when opposition doesn't have virtually any platform to express themselves and criticize the government. In a country where medias are thightly controlled and censored and where criticizing the government put you or your family in danger, you can't blame people for their political opinion.

I know there are boomrang bigots among the trans community, and they usually do not zigzags as much as her about their opinion and generally support transphobic things as long as it doesn't affect them (or at least they think so). They have at least a bit of consistency, which i don't see in the Jenner case.

In the right direction? Really? Russia was already an hellhole under Eltsine, who was highly unpopular, until he decide to silence critics by seizing the medias. And it was already dangerous to criticize Putin when he took power in the beginning of the 2000's. Some people in Russia sparked doubt about what looked like a plot to put Putin in power (terrorist attacks allegedly caused by Chechen), they've been assassinated shortly after. And Putin never stopped to consolidate his power, changing the rules to make increasingly harder to overthrow him.
