🧵The visceral hatred so many GOP Voters have for Democrats have always puzzled me. I mean, what horrible thing did Democrats ever do to hurt them, ever? Not a damn thing, that's what. Meanwhile, Republicans ACTIVELY go around hurting people. (1/3)

There' no actual REASON for it: they've been *told* to hate Democrats by their cult leaders, just like they've been *told* to hate Budweiser, and they've been *told* to hate Disney, and they've been *told* to hate electric cars. There's no active individual thought involved.
What Republicans have done to Americans is well documented... taking away regulations that protect people (resulting in unnecessary deaths for profit), attacking minorities, making it harder to vote, impoverishing people, gutting education, demonizing LGBT people, etc. (2/3)
But all Democrats have ever done to Republican Voters is make healthcare more accessible & affordable, make it easier to vote, ensure food & drugs are safe, and air & water are clean, education is free, and that we can retire with dignity. For this, they hate us. (3/3)
They hate the concept of equality because they see life as a zero sum game. They are “I” people, most liberals are “We” people.
Republicans would rather everyone suffer, including themselves, than have minorities, women, and children be treated with the dignity and respect they deserve.
Cult brainwashing. Addicted to rage. Can’t think clearly when they’re consumed with rage.
The rage is the product that Fox News is selling. It’s a big money maker
20 years of non-stop riling up the crazies with lies and propaganda.
Anger addiction. It's the primary feature of Faux Spews brainwashing. They've been pumping up the poutrage engines since 1996. 30 years later their viewers are literally foaming at the mouth. Angry all the time, at everything. Junkies sweating for their next fix.
Fox News sells ‘Dems bad’ as a product. They sell reverse mortgages, gold repurchases, heart care meds, and Dems bad.
