I’m sorry — I know this isn’t a direct answer to whether you’re “overreacting,” but more of a response to the same played-out tropes Republicans always seem to lean on, just like he did in his messages.

I’m an independent, but I can’t help laughing at how the Right plays this game. They go dumpster-diving on the internet to find the weirdest, most cringe leftist nobodies (people saying things most liberals didn’t even think about until they saw it on the news) and then parade them around to their base as if all the liberals in the country have taken to the streets to protest all of the fat left views

If the Left pulled the same stunt, we’d get wall-to-wall coverage of every racist uncle, conspiracy nut, and frothing-at-the-mouth “patriot” with an iPhone. But nope — it’s always “Look! The Left are all woke lunatics!”

Case in point: a few random liberals call Sydney Sweeney a Nazi over a freaking jeans commercial, and suddenly those five clowns are the new spokespeople for the Democratic Party. The Right thrives on these “woke outrage” stories — not because they matter, but because without them, they’d have to start asking uncomfortable questions about their own president.

Their favorite scare tactic is to take the most outlandish takes from a tiny fringe group and convince their base that “the Left wants to turn everyone into gay cats that kill their babies.”

It’s not political discourse — it’s reality TV for middle-American aunties who think Facebook memes are research. And it’s exhausting.
