I hate MAGoos as much as sanity allows.
Hurting them would be all kinds of fun, but it’s not the smart move.
A lot of people voted for Trump three times, and then voted Blue for the first time in their lives.
Getting those folks to vote Blue again is the priority.

This. They need to be ridiculed for their past behavior, but supported for making a change. Make them embarassed for how they were, maybe a couple will end up doing some serious self-evaluation. I know most probably won’t, but if even a couple do it’s worth it

You can’t do both. I’ve come to figure over the years that, aside from horny, shame and the fear of shame is the most powerful human emotion. Shame will backfire in this case.

I don’t care what they think about themselves.
I want them the vote Blue. That’s it.

It’s more that making them self-reflect might cause them to change for the better long term. They don’t even need to come all the way to the progressive side, or even to the corporate Democrat side, but if they change enough to move them away from the fascist side, the entire world wins
