The thing is, anyone already against these folks was already against them. If your hate-o-meter is maxxed out, it can't increase.

Anyone already supporting these folks either never heard about it through their echo chamber news source of choice or simply doesn't care.

That's kinda the state of (American) politics in 2026.

Yay for hyper individualization. At least we don't have to question our beliefs at work or in other shared spaces, as it's only polite to talk about such energy consuming topics in small sycophantic bubbles so we can do the group style "llm psychosis" affirming of important personal beliefs that heavily contradict highly confident known sciences. World is increasingly on fire? Must be mercury in retrograde, or them immigrants, and totally not the things the scientists keep talking about.

As long as we never communicate or compare our beliefs, or how we got there. nobody has to experience the terrible pain of unlearning things that you believed in, which shaped the current you. As long as bubbles are isolated enough, and never try to actually cooperatively compare and sort through which beliefs might not be globally consistent, how how to change our actions accordingly.

Also check out the info on the recent chimp civil war to see what happens to silly little ape brains when you remove their community bridges and communication between groups, while increasing anxiety and stress around the 'other' tribes.

We can also show elsewhere in nature or social systems where defining other life as exploitable environment is how you create the grand cacophony of suffering that we see in nature, and you think the oh so brilliant humans would be able to recognize that and not do it to themselves. Unfortunately a few wealth addicted assholes have already become so parasitic that they intentionally attack and disable learning, communication, and empathy, because we out here parasite maxxing, and it's tooootally fine if it makes a better life impossible for virtually everyone.
