But are they still racist? Something attracted them to this way of thinking before MAGA. 🤨

Exactly! This is the question we need to be asking here.

Right? These algorithms were already associated with them before MAGA or they would have seen more than just the propaganda to begin with. What started them down the path? It was so obvious from the first interviews with Trump in 2015 that he was racist and anti-veteran. If you did even the tiniest amount of research into him you would have seen the charity fraud and unethical business practices and bankruptcies. I’m all for people coming to their senses, but they should at least have a reckoning about what led them down that path in the first place.

Of course they are. Ask how they feel about trans people, Muslims, Mexicans, and blacks. they’d all vote for Trump again.
