    Its a death cult.

    Just, full stop, MAGA is a death cult, same as Jim Jones or Heaven’s Gate.

    Big death cult? Popular death cult, takes over the government?

    Fascism.

    For all the sociological, political, economic complexities and nuance…

    It really does basically just boil down to those being pretty much the same thing, at different scales.

    Good luck reasoning with or expecting reason from death cult members.

    They are the zombie apocalpyse, fucking broken brains, really only fully functional at the limbic level, the rest of the brain is a confused mush of near infinite levels of reality denial, motivated reasoning, and cognitive dissonance.
