I've been around this website on and off for awhile. My assumptions are well founded. Many people on this website are trump cultists.
I'm seriously questioning what you define as a cultist, but I'll ignore that for a moment. There's a reason I said "irl communication" earlier. While rational people exist on the internet, it is always the unreasonable that are the loudest and most seen. Many of the more rational minds can't stomach the idea of internet conversations these days, as a result. This applies for both wings.
I mean, why would you? There are very few people out there who "love" biden or the democrats. there are millions of people out there would literally kill and die for donald trump.
That is a perception you have, but I don't see a whole lot of evidence for it. I'd bet that if "millions of people" were really that willing, we'd see a lot more political violence than we currently do. Nothing you could even cite includes anywhere near that large of a number.
But I have shown people, on this website and elsewhere, quotes of donald trump saying he thinks he can suspend all laws including the constitution. And the response is something like "well he didn't mean it". I agree polorization is a problem. But the mindset of the maga subset of the republican party engages in cult like thinking. They will worship trump no matter what. He says he wants to end the constitution but they still believe he wants to protect it. He has slept with porn stars, cheated on his wives, sexually assaulted women, admitted that he likes sexually assaulting women on tape, but millions of people think he defends family values. He publicly made the republicans stop a bill to protect the border, but his followers still believe he is the one that wants to protect the border. That isn't politics, its a cult.
All of this is a perception you have of previous debates. I likely wasn't there for any of those, but I get the sense there is more to the story than what you are telling me. I'm not accusing you of lying, but I'm keenly aware of how two people with different perspectives can easily fail to be on the same page. Most of the accusations you just levied against Trump are ones I don't believe to be true, because they are based on reports that are lacking context. I am open to discussing these at a later date when I am not as busy (tbh, I probably shouldn't be responding here; I think I'll just let you have the last word after this post), on a thread dedicated to those topics.
Here's the thing: You've collected a list of things you believe are falsehoods purported by Trump supporters. At the end of the day, all of these are disagreements. Someone will be right and someone will be wrong in debates about all of these, but holding incorrect political beliefs and defending them does not reach the level of "cult-like behavior." Your argument is basically that Trump supporters are cultists because they are wrong on a bunch of things. I could collect the same amount of things I believe to be ridiculous defenses of prominent Democrats and leftist ideals, but that doesn't suddenly make the people who believe those things "cultists." To understate: A real cult has a bit more going on than just incorrect beliefs.
I mean, you say that. But donald trump managed to get a crowd of people to attack the capitol and try to overthrow democracy. You say there isn't a sizeable amout of people who would advocate committing crimes for trump. My response is, if you actually believe that then you aren't paying attention.
I don't believe he is responsible for Jan 6, and I don't believe everyone there was attempting to overthrow the government. Add that to the list of things I'd be willing to discuss at a later date.
Once again, nothing you could cite reaches the amount of people in the millions, or even close to it (not even when combined). The amount of people at Jan 6 is nowhere close to sizable, not in a country with ~330 Million people that can pull ~150 Million votes in one election, with about half going to each candidate.
