Americans (or many of them) are nostalgic about the 1950s, where the economy was booming and wages were high.
The loss of that in the recent decades has triggered the 5 stages of grief.
- denial
- anger
- bargaining
- depression
- acceptance
America is currently in the second stage, anger, and that’s what causes Trump’s fury.
yeah but MAGAts do, at least about the idea they have about the country or rather how they think it was in the past.
it’s maybe some kind of stockhold syndrome? the 1950s were shit but people remember them well.
so they think that they want to go back to that.
and the loss of that is causing an emotional toll on the people.
They fear a loss of status/privilege which is why they’re so angry.
yeah exactly
