Just think of everyone as big gullible babies & give them the same treatment you would a 7 year old child wearing a Blue Lives Matter shirt - you sort of give the kid a pass on account of they're a fucking pig brained child, or like accept that his parents must suck. Same applies, people's parents suck and their whole culture sucks and has corrupted them. Do they have some agency? Sure. But for the most part they're a product of their environ & the fucked up system they were born in has shaped those big 7 year old babies into reactionary goons. If they were born in the Star Trek universe they'd probably be pretty good people, actually.
Idk, that's what I do. I'm surrounded by them but they're truly nice people and I think they're just shaped in a really really terrible way by society @ large. The information available to them is polluted garbage so no wonder it taints the output (them)
