How to tell it has stuck
It was always going to stick.
Conservatives are all about conformity on a base level.
Telling them that they as a group don’t conform to society and that they’re the outsiders is enough to literally break their brains.
It’s why they’re always talking about the “silent majority” they legit believe their beliefs are the default.
Literally why they never stop complaining about immigrants. Telling them that even the majority of white people don’t conform to their beliefs means they’re going to drop everything else to refute it.
Their entire identity is based on conforming to social norms, telling them that even when they conform to their own norms doesn’t make them fit in to society as a whole makes them question which side they should be conforming too.
Approach it right, and it ain’t hard to make them flip. Happens all the time when rural people go to college, or kids go on social media.
We had a local candidate who wouldn’t shut the hell up about being part of a silent majority and then he lost the election in a landslide. Even if there hadn’t been two conservatives splitting the vote, it wouldn’t have been close, and you could tell it just broke his brain a little bit. He made a statement about how he was so shocked - he really believed there were all these voters out there supporting his bigotry quietly but never making themselves known, and he couldn’t fathom that they just didn’t exist. Meanwhile, he seemed to think that the huge amount of negative feedback he got from real live human beings couldn’t possibly be significant. Unfortunately, that lesson didn’t stick and he still shows up to meetings to publicly embarrass himself occasionally.
Yep
The election fraud shit was the natural path forward for them.
Like, the voters may be ignorant. But the people calling the shots at the Federalist society and other places aren’t stupid. They know basic psychology and how to manipulate their voters.
The election fraud shit was the natural path forward for them.
It’s less threatening to their worldview to believe that the election was stolen than to question whether their core beliefs are wrong. It’s literally a Simpson’s “Am I out of touch? No, it’s the kids that are wrong” moment
Better example is American History X.
That old ass racist was just brainwashing kids and using them as disposible tools.
That’s how Republicans (especially trump) treat their voters.
can confirm, happened to me lol (grew up and moved away)
Isn’t this DCs version of the avenger’s?
Nah. They’re from the OC…
Don’t call it that.

I’ve been to grade school, so I know how to handle these situations. Saying, “I’m not Penisface! Stop calling me Penisface!” over and over is the best way to get the kids to stop calling you Penisface.
Nuh uh! Stahp it! No you… 😢
I’m familiar with dickhead but penisface is a new one. Are you missing an eye or something?
No no, Dickhead is a totally different nickname.
This is how you get the nickname Penisface: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIZr9PPnkys
Theres fighting ones destiny and theres embracing ones destiny. This man has bearhugged and snapped the back of destiny.
If you haven’t read it, Preacher is pretty awesome like that. 😁
I read this as grad school at first and was so fucking confused wondering what the hell happened in your program.
It was hell in the comp lit annex.
You have to be a massive snowflake to be triggered when people call you weird. You have to be a turbo snowflake to get triggered if someone else is called weird that you don’t even know.
To be fair, The Good Liars handed those out. The same people are :19 seconds into the video. People still took them and didn’t understand how stupid it looks.

Lol at the “we ran out of the red ink”

Sun exposure is a very strange part of toxic masculinity. Some believe that being toasty and working outside all day make you manly.
“I’m not weird!”
- the refrain of every normal person
“nuh-uh!” said the weirdo
They should try, “no, you’re weird!” next. I’m sure that’ll work.
He got a note from his doctor and it says he’s certified not weird, he’s the most normal.
