Remember, people who voted for trump are generally against “big government” and they do not trust government/politicians at all. I know that seems like an oxymoron -- they’re also in favor of being “tough on crime” and at least some of them are fine with using paramilitary forces to crack down on protesters -- but again, go back to what a KKK member in the US South just after the Civil War would be in favor of, and there you have it. This absolute mess where the government fucks with POC and teargasses protesters and does next to nothing about massive crises from the pandemic to natural disasters and underfunds schools and is driving the post office out of business, there’s some people who think that’s how the government should be. That it should just get out of the way and let this sort of lawless might-makes-right white supremacist rich-get-richer bullshit carry on about its business. Like, I do enjoy superhero movies and I’m not even advocating against watching them, it’s just, I think we should be honest about it when their narratives vibe with right-wing narratives.
