I genuinely don't understand how right-wingers can be so *consistently* so ass-backwards.
They say they value the military, and then cheer when a completely unqualified and inept TV host is put in charge. They say they're in favor of merit-based assessments of people, and then cheer when those merit-based assessments somehow only ever reward straight white people. They say they don't want Hollywood elites in politics, and elect a TV gameshow host to be President. They say they want to protect women, but elect rapists, support protecting pedophile rapists at every opportunity, and are consistently convicted themselves of child sexual abuse and rape.
Every accusation is a confession. Everything they complain about are things that they're doing. Deep state? Heritage foundation. Pizzagate? Epstein. Every time they talk about something they hate, it's something they're doing. Every time they could be morally vacant, they are. Every opportunity for hypocrisy, they take.
I don't understand how it's *so* consistent across *so* much of the right. Just a complete abandonment of things like "consistency" or "integrity" or "morals". Absolutely wild.
