It is more effective to educate conservatives on why white supremacy is wrong. Buying a few little pew pews isn’t going to stop them. Maybe buy you some time to slip out the back.
Perhaps demand they craft legislation on media outlets. Have you noticed the History channel plays nothing about history anymore and is all reality tv?
Of course we should try to reach out and educate, the soap box and the ballot box are always the first and second choices; but you sound like someone with nothing to lose. What happens when the attempt at "education" fails? When the attempt to speak civilly is met with red-faced screaming? When you try to use reason and they use an armed mob.
I wonder if anyone just tried educating Hitler about how antisemitism is wrong.
I'm in a deep red state. I have no interest in letting a caravan of MAGAts come into the singular liberal, "crime-infested blue city" within 200 miles to Rittenhouse some "groomers" because their guy gets to be dictator "for a day."
Their hate is fueled by manufactured propaganda, an outrage machine controlled by billionaires. The media needs to be regulated immediately and some Monopolies need to be broken up. There is no better time than now
