Experiment are actually rigged against them, and that, rather than any missteps or failings of their own, is the reason they’re falling behind (in reality or just in their own minds). That’s why their children are being groomed to hate their own whiteness, gender, and so on.

You see it on full display with our best board Trumpies all the time. If Biden (or anyone not named Trump) misspeaks, it’s a wonderful gotcha and evidence of full blown dementia. Anyone who talks about the same with trump is a “tds sufferer”, and the evil msm is being meaner than anyone ever has. Any court ruling against Trump is witch hunting, and liberal, and biased - the judiciary can no longer be trusted except when it convicts dems! This very same judiciary found in favor of election deniers in ‘20, but never with a finding the results themselves were tainted, in like 3 out of 60 attempts. Trumpistan places full faith in those 3, with full exaggeration of them as tainting the entire national election, but that same judiciary was totally corrupt in the other 57, don’t ya know!

These bullshit assaults on the institutions of democracy are not confined to the U.S. - it’s the lifeblood of the rise of the populist right. Trumpism doesn’t even try to disguise it, and it works like a charm on the cult base. And the rest of the party just falls in line behind them.
