I'm honestly confused about what these people are after.

Like, they have a ludicrous amount of power in the government right now. You'd think that they'd be placated, and yet this keeps happening.

It genuinely doesn't make sense to me.

It's BECAUSE they have the power that this keeps happening. Trump and co. empowered all the racists into believing that they can get away with their killer fantasies.

Its a bit more complicated than that. For the far right, their endgame looks nothing like the present day. They appreciate Trump spreading the right sentiments and all that, but what they want is a complete upheaval, a true ethnostate, the return of male dominance, first-class rights for the in-group, restoration of various old traditions, you get the idea. Trump was never their answer to their unhappiness with the present day, he was just the factor that allowed them to be louder and more present.

Antifar had made one major error though. He'd ignored the sign that had cautioned him about cruelbuffalos wearing turbams. There was a key in between them.

Not really. America is heavily fractured, state by state, things are splintered. Tribalism at maximum. You're either far right or far left, with us or against us kind of thing. There is no acceptable middle ground to the masses anymore.

This also isn't unique to America, Europe is going through this too.

Hence why they're freaking out despite being in control of government.

They see the backlash to the people and the policies and they support, and the complete inability of the people they support to achieve much of anything. It frustrates them that they're so unaccepted and impotent in spite of their previous electoral successes.

From their they start blaming "the libs" or go off ranting about Jewish people and foreigners. Then they snap and kill a bunch of people.

Republicans don't like critical thinking itself. They don't just want people to be bad at math... They want people to fundamentally not be able to logically criticize indifference as a concept. Straight-up 1984 doublespeak. This is why they're like this.
Knowledge-Based Education We oppose the teaching of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) (values clarification), critical thinking skills and similar programs that are simply a relabeling of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) (mastery learning) which focus on behavior modification and have the purpose of challenging the students fixed beliefs and undermining parental authority.

Yep

Notice a pattern the last several decades of conservatives doing their best to wreck the education system of whatever state they happen to gain power over.

This feels as bad as what some right-wingers have said.

People who say the other party has lost its right to a voice in governance and only your own leanings are what the country needs have usually gone too far. I think if someone says the country needs a more conservative direction, its their right to at least believe that so long as its civil and retains the virtues held by the core concepts of the nation. After that there is room for disagreement but as long as theyre intelligent about their position and accept faults then they should be allowed to hold it.

Now watch me get reamed for playing devils advocate.
