From what Ive seen from all these mega right wing dudes I work with all these public figures and social media posts openly hating this stuff has emboldened them to grandstand themselves since they feel its okay to do, even if they realize theyre gonna get some pushback to it.
They never expect to be vilified for it, because in their mind they honestly believe that theyre in the right and theyre obligated to their opinion on the matter because the talking heads told them they could. This is why that type of media is dangerous, it bigs up these kinda people. Dont get me wrong, theyre still prolly gonna feel this way, but at least before theyd know that their feelings arent acceptable and theyd stay the fuck in line. Im a Black guy and I know full well that many of the people I rub elbows with are prolly not gonna like me because of that, but at the very least I know Im not gonna be called a nonowordor boy because they know full well the type of pushback theyre gonna get on it from me and society at large, as well as the consequences of such an action.
