Unfortunately some of them are real people, I've had voice conversations with people who believe the bullshit line that "Canada and Mexico are taking advantage of us" that's coming out of these figureheads they blindly follow.
They have zero critical thinking abilities, and that means they can't be reasoned out of their position by showing them facts or asking them to prove their logic.
It's true - I can remember a year ago, maybe two? Back when he was still on Fox News Tucker Carlson was constantly on about how we were under a tyrannical dictatorship and how Americans should "free" us. This "not viable as a country" thing is just another attempt at justifying their aggression and it's just as hollow and stupid. The lies and fallacies just cycle through until something sticks, it's the goals that remain the same.
The truth is, they want us out of the way because our multiculturalism and socialism are threats to their siloed reality. We're too similar to them, too successful. We're a living repudiation of everything they believe, of all the lies they need to be true to justify their cruelty and bigotry.
We were never going to be allowed to live in peace, for no other reason than we are a constant reminder of the truth.
