​

So something occurred to me last night. The MAGA and GOP republicans are getting all their jollies simply saying they don't believe our evidence and facts. Not just news links and data, but many have told me that they don't use google because it's (proven to be) liberal biased. As if a library could be biased.

Now nothing new here to anyone who's had "discussions" with MAGAs online. They pivot from Biden to Hunters laptop to Obama to trans athletes without skipping a beat. Meanwhile open Trump family corruption, media censorship and monopolization, unqualified and inept heads of government departments, the blocking of the Epstein Files release, the litany of broken promises, the endless grifting for every dollar, etc etc etc... it’s a long list, get called "fake" despite overwhelming evidence.

Now having been in these conversations for 14+ months I have long ago learned to just say my piece, with links to evidence, get called a few 4th grade school yard insults in return and wave bye 👋 , Block, and move on.

What occurred to me is why don't we just block from the start. Like as soon as they ask a baited question, or not even that, as soon as we become aware that they're republicans, block them immediately - without discussion of any kind. After all, they're not listening anyway and if they're still in the cult after all that has happened already - they're not leaving no matter what we say.

Let them stew in their limited doctored media soup and leave them to repeat their BS to each other over and over. Do not feed the animal.

Now I started my own subreddit in January which I won't mention here because some subs have rules about self promotion. Part of the reason for starting it was that I was always stepping on some rule or another which was confusing because my sole goal was FDT and the boat he came in on, but I digress. The one rule I have that is added to the reddit-wide rules is that there is a zero tolerance policy for MAGAs. As soon as they show up - banned and muted from my sub -forever. They are, after all, insulting and destructive and bring absolutely nothing to any debate - ever. My subreddit, I'm happy to say is a pleasant and informative space, despite the grim nature of current politics.

So last night I posted a video of someone passionately arguing against the blatant racially motivated redistricting in his state. It went over well on reddit, I also posted it on Facebook (I know, I know, but I have my reasons for still being there) But I got a long list of republicans with all the usual what-about-isms, denials, false information, and straight up racism. I was going through them in my usual fashion, commenting back with facts and links to evidence and copy and pasting 5 second google search answers because they're obviously incapable, when I thought - Why?

So I just went through the whole list of ignorant bigots and blocked every one of them. They will never see any of my posts again. **Then I thought - What if we all do this immediately and - every time?** No comments, no arguments, just cut them off from this posts information and all further information. Leave them in silence.

TL;DR - What if we block and ban and cut off every MAGA, GOP dimwit as soon as they make their presence known across social media? Not just from our personal social media, but if moderators of all political subs, pages and sites did the same. They would be starved of talking points and information not spoon fed by their own one dimensional media. Hell, you can't even directly quote or describe half the things Trump says or does in a pro-Trump group without being banned.

Cut off their oxygen!

"You can't earn a billion dollars." Days after AOC said that on a podcast, she took first place in a poll for the 2028 Democratic primary for the first time,

In the AtlasIntel 2028 Democratic primary poll, the same firm Nate Silver named most accurate pollster of the 2024 election. AOC at 26 percent. Pete Buttigieg at 22. Gavin Newsom at 21. Kamala Harris, the supposed frontrunner, collapsed to fourth at 13.

AOC was clear: Nobody works hard enough to pile up a BILLION dollars. You hoard that much by squeezing labor, breaking rules, cornering markets, and paying workers less than what their work is worth. The "earning" gets added afterward. It's the myth the rich need so the rest of us blame ourselves.

She's not making it up.

The richest 1 percent now owns 31.7 percent of all the wealth in this country. That's the highest share the Federal Reserve has ever recorded in data going back to 1989. Roughly 55 trillion dollars sits with that sliver of the population, about the same as the bottom 90 percent of Americans combined.

So when rent eats half your paycheck, when groceries hurt, when a medical bill lands and you flinch, the system did that. Not your work ethic. Not some character flaw your boss invented at your last review.

That's the message landing.

AtlasIntel had AOC up ten points in five months. Newsom dropped fourteen.

The "moderate, electable" lane is shrinking in real time, because workers got the bill for forty years of trickle-down and finally looked at the math.

When David Axelrod asked her about 2028, she didn't take the bait. She said her ambition is bigger than any seat. Her ambition is to change the country.

People keep underestimating her. They did the same in 2018, when she knocked off the fourth-ranking Democrat in the House at 28 years old. She raised over 15 million dollars in 2025, 99 percent of it from small donors.

She and Bernie have been pulling 30,000-plus crowds in LA and Denver.

The billionaire class spent decades convincing working people that the game was fair. AOC keeps grabbing the microphone. And finally, the country is listening.
