I don't know a single person who's "blindly loyal" to Biden. Most people I know think he's overall pretty reasonable and certainly disagree with him on some things. I also know quite a few Trump voters, as I do live in Texas, and those people are beyond rationality at this point. Trying to have a conversation about an issue is utterly useless, because all they know how to do is restate whatever line they've been fed by whatever conservative media they watch.
My point is this tweet is absolutely bullshit
It's not so much the blind loyalty as much as it is the "shh, don't talk bad about what we all know." Different, but feels the same.
Feels before reals.
The person you're responding to is describing a conscious, rational thought process, not feelings
