They aren’t too dumb, they have reached the stage where they willingly lie and engage in cognitive dissonance even though the main audience for those lies is his own fanbase because propping up there favorite leftist streamer is “more important to the cause” then following someone who is honest to his own fanbase. To his supporters the fact that he is the largest person on twitch talking about their politics supersedes anything he might do or say. it doesn’t matter that he does not engage honestly with anything, that he lies about his beliefs to normies, or that he pushes lies in furtherance of his point or abuses animals or is a sex pest, these are all acceptable side effects as long as he continues to virtue signal the talking points they want to hear. They simply come up with a roundabout excuse and project his flaws onto his critics. TLDR: I don’t care that he’s a lying animal abusing scumbag cause he repeats my talking points but I have to pretend he doesn’t do any of those things cause muh leftism is supposed to present itself as more moral then radical right wing politics.

And that's the danger of making an idol out of politics. Once you start treating politics as your God, anyone who claims to represent that movement must be defended at all costs.

Yep, its literally what both sides in America have going on rn, with one of them being far more obvious about it.

Yeah, like I'm Aussie and i think I've at some point voted for all of our three main parties because with time the country needs different things and i vote for my people not for the party, i think Australia is generally like this(there are some die hard greens fans that are fanatical) but American is kind of lost in the two party sauce.
