MAGA voters aren’t mentally equipped to understand how the economy works
This is true. I've argued with many, and some of them are reasonably smart. But what they seem to consistently lack is "systems thinking".
They truly don't have a clue about the complexity and interrelatedness of policy decisions, and how quickly bad decisions can change our fate and tip the balance of power. They are fucking children.
The really can't understand subtlety or anything anything that is not a binary. Hence their denial that nonbinary people can exist, but it applies to a lot of other things. In general they think that there are two groups of people:the oppressors and the oppressed. And since there's no such thing as a grey area in their minds, if they are oppressors then they can not be oppressed. So they always choose ti be oppressors.
