I thought I added this paragraph. They're doing stuff, probably not enough, but they're doing stuff.

Speaking out against MAGA cost the Kelleys relationships with friends and family members who support Trump, but in sharing their story, they hope to inspire others having doubts about the GOP.

Who changes without personal hardship? This kind of attitude comes off as very conceited and elitist. Just be happy people can change and move on

Your generous donation will empower others to leave MAGA and tell their stories; foster reconciliation with their friends and family; and develop movement leaders to help others leave.

What was that about the next grift?

Neat trivia: if you go to their joint "leaving maga" testimonial page, Chrissey admits to having been an illegal migrant worker in 2001 and 2003. Went to China as a Christian missionary under the guise of "teaching English," which absolutely violated the terms of her VISA, which makes her an illegal migrant worker. Not that they'd ever see it that way. Just no self awareness...

For all their claims of ignorant innocence ("We were lied to," “I was clueless,” "It's not the end of the world," “It’s okay to be wrong”), Evangelists are always right.

We’re very upset about the mass deportation campaign, too. Speaking as a Christian, I’ve researched Christian Nationalism, and that really woke me up. These people getting picked up and deported to countries they’re not from, that’s not what a Christian stands for.

... then again, maybe there's hope for them too. They just desperately need to decentre themselves. Like this guy has:

As someone who left MAGA, a main focus for me is trying to take as much accountability for my beliefs and actions as possible. I can’t just say, “Oh, I was lied to.” It’s my fault, because I let myself become that way. [...]

Trump is not the ultimate cause of this. There are underlying issues, like poor education. People aren’t taught enough about women’s issues and minority issues, for example. And people are having trouble pulling together the bare necessities. Once that happens, it’s really easy to become angry and want to blame the system. And when you feel the system isn’t going to change, it’s easy to say, “Let’s try the lunatic. Put the bull in the china shop and let it loose.” - Jay, a former homeschooled Gamergator All-Lives-Matter incel, who seems to be actively working on becoming a better neighbour

because they woke up and developed empathy for other people.

Getting them to admit to being "woke" is going to be a tall order.

If the boot's ever lifted even a little, he'll be asking for it to come back down again just you wait. Never surprising to watch idiots make the same mistakes continuously.

For those who don't know German or those who don't know history, that translates to "we knew nothing about it." and in this case, it is of the more hilarious because Trump said he would do exactly this.

What an interesting way to phrase this. It translated to "Did we not know" for me. I really like that translation because it asks a rhetorical question about Auschwitz. A blind eye so you can sleep at night. They probably are protesting too much as well.
