I had two MAGA is nuts experiences on Battlefield 6 yesterday.
In a match I literally caught an enemy running up some stairs and I shot him, quite literally in the ass, and then said on mic, man I just shot that guy right in the ass! I hear a voice from my squad - please don't use that kind of language. I was like 'ass', really? How is that offensive in a video game. Then they said, it sounds too gay. I was like oh you must be one of them maga people. He said yes. I'm like why are you so bigoted? He said they are very tolerant people they just don't want anything forced on them. I said how is it forced on you? He said well not on me but it happens. He had a bit of a southern accent. These people simply don't exist in any kind of reality.
My buddy in CO and I play regularly, and since BF6 started we met this guy and befriended him and play with him all the time. From Texas, but lives in Los Angeles where he just finished college. We could tell he is right wing, and when my buddy and I talk politics, he usually stays silent. Anyway yesterday he did start talking. He quite literally believes that the right to bear arms was bestowed on Americans directly from God. Which I knew they do but it's always stunning to hear it from a real person and not just on a news article. I told him about how an NFL writer who went to San Fran for the bowl wrote an article about how they've been lied to about San Fran, it's a great city to be in. I said, how do you feel about LA since probably all your folks down in TX buy into the LA is a dystopian hellhole where you can't leave your house without being crimed. He defended it lol He's lived their for four years. He couldn't give me one example of feeling that unsafe besides vibes and videos. He's always talking about going to the gas station to get nicotine, or going out or what not. Nuts.
So far gone. Literally denies a four years of life experience to maintain the cult ideology .
