The mindset is not what you and I would call, "normal." That is why it's been SO difficult to get through the MAGA cult walls and make someone "realize" what they're doing, what they've voted for, and especially, what they're GOING TO experience at the hands of this regime. The mindset is alien to us normies. That is, I believe, the reason why so few in the media will call this out for what this is, as Jim has here. They literally don't have the capacity to understand that what they've lived in and believed for their whole lives is NOTHING like what these aliens believe in and will fight for. It's also why Democrats are mostly silent and ineffective. The very worst part is while the MAGA cult keeps trying to spin this into something "good," they ALSO can't get their minds around what's happening unless they've been conditioned enough to be a true believer - i.e., the OG MAGAts. A lot of them haven't been, and either voted by rote, or simply couldn't ABIDE a woman of color as president. They may start saying the quiet parts out loud too, but that's to be seen. But none of that matters until the mass media catches up and starts reporting these unprecedented actions as if they're ACTUALLY unprecedented and stop trying to fit this madness into old frames of reference.

Leadership in our world (Earth) is passing out of American hands. Former colonized areas and nations, most of them with non-white populations are taking greater control of their portions of the globe. No matter what Elon Musk and “natalists” and white supremacists want, the world does now and will in the future consist increasingly of “black” and “brown” people. As the song goes, “Bye bye Miss American Pie!”
