It’s a literal bonfire of the vanities. The bigotry, the smugness, and the violence are all part of a self-mythologizing narrative used to build support for increasingly awful people.

They draw in other assholes like a magnet and build a movement based on that collective awfulness, even as their country self-destructs and takes out every neighbor in a 500 mile radius.

The issue is not that we have deranged human beings. As societies, we can handle these cases.
The issue is we keep promoting them: Minister in Israel, President in the US, billionaires, trillionaire, …
