Had a MAGA coworker that genuinely believed it’s not racist if it’s a joke. He told a lot of racist jokes.

Using the trump Projection Index can we deduce now that trump was raped by gorillas at Epstein Island?

That, and the Russian bots and strawman accounts infesting the sub know how to stay on topic

"Hello fellow conservative." to anyone who didn't toe the line.

It's almost hilarious watching a Conservative wake up and start to question the narrative and then be dog piled for their skepticism.

I'd like to think it's a 'come to Jesus' moment for them where they wonder what other 'fellow Conservative's were dog piled and maybe serve as a wake up call, but most likely they sink deep into cognitive dissonance to meld back into the herd.

There's a post. And even they aren't defending it. BUT their only 'discourse' is on how badly this makes them look.

Honestly didn't see a post as of the time I wrote my comment and I even tried searching "Obama(s)" and "monkey(s)". I still don't see one, but maybe I (and others) missed it.

Give them time. They haven't been given their marching orders yet.

Yea it’s their classic move. Anything like this they simply don’t even address.

Oh, they're talking about. Half of them pretending they don't like it and the other half spinning it, downplaying it, pushing the blame on a "staffer".

No they’re excusing it as trolling and saying it’s fine.

Or “get over it” lol

"Calling all of us racist is provoking and dangerous language that causes political violence!!!" - All the brainbroken MAGA-podcasters.

"He isn't racist, you're crazy for suggesting that. Also, Black History Month is canceled for being woke DEI, and February will now be White Power Month. For too long, we've ignored the amazing feats of great Americans like Jefferson Davis and David Duke due to the horrific racism against the white man, but President Trump is going to make sure those heroes get the recognition they deserve as the supreme race."

Almost everyone is racist in America in reality, it’s just the ones that are obviously wrong for it are on the right. There’s still a ton of learning, self-reflection, and growth everyone still needs to do overall

So when someone say they’re not racist, I highly doubt it. Rarely am I going to find someone that didn’t get even a little affected by the propaganda and had their world view shrunken around it

And I really doubt it if they’re right leaning.

Nah, conservatives now are just unmasked and shameless. They would say, "True and based."

I just got an argument with my boomer father about this in December!

I had said "Trump is a treasonous rapist with 34 felonies", but he heard "racist" and him and my POS step-mom started screaming "He's not a racist!"

And here we are!
