    I think a lot of it is just reactionary contrarianism. Fox News and company tell them who their culture war enemies are and as long as they perceive their leadership to be harming and humiliating their enemies they literally don't care about the details.

      Contrarian in the way Evangelicals are convinced they’re persecuted

      Can they really be called contrarians if they are the popular opinion by far?

      We are the contrarians.

        They are not the popular opinion. They haven't won a popular national election since 2004, which is why they have to pack the courts and rely on gerrymandering, massive policing and poll manipulation to stay in power.

        Polling shows the majority of Americans are incoherent liberals or left-libertarians with no understanding of history or how politics really works. They are majorly not capitalists or right wing demagogues. Democratic opinion is not represented by the works of Congress, the Judiciary or the White House.
