I'm kind of split on the issue because you are right about that, but also I've seen the way that conservatives both live in a world where they are constantly jumping at shadows of communism and DEI and so on and also have some sort of ideological fixation on going "I'm not mad, you're mad".
If you're detached enough from real consequence and your team is doing well, those types of emotions can be enjoyable on some level. I see it as similar to a sports fan who always thinks the sky is falling for their team but religiously follows it anyway.
