They are terrified of communists and socialists, which is how the Republicans paint Democrats. It's almost like triggering PTSD for some of those folks. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago Yeah, and I wish that were it! Honestly. I totally get it, too. But in our case, my die-hard MAGAt aunt and her son both crossed the border illegally. They're not old or uneducated. Our government has never been authoritarian or communist during her lifetime. Like, she even has another gay son, ffs. I don't get it. lol permalink fedilink source parent
