It's like they are literally trying to kill us all off. Perhaps the technocratic GOP elites like Musk and Thiel and the Ellisons and others imagine a future where they are served by robots and no longer have pesky humans to get in their way.

Trump's environmental deregulation is leading to a significant uptick in harmful air pollution from coal fired power plants:

OMG I am old enough to remember when right wingers threw an absolute sh!t fit when Mike Bloomberg tried taxing sugary sodas a bit more or limiting the sizes twenty years ago.

Perfect representation of OP’s thesis. This is so demented.

MAHA women feel that they were lied to...now??? WTF?!

They were being lied to this whole time by the MAHA politicians. And they knew it. And they still voted in the people who are now doing exactly as they said they would - increasing air pollution, increasing water pollution, increasing pesticides, decreasing immunity, increasing disease and death.

This is what the MAHA folks and the MAGA folks voted for. They voted to give all their money to dear leader in exchange for plastics in their brains and dirty air/water/food.

FAFO.

I think maha people care, I think maha politicians don’t.

RFK Jr.’s fans may be finally finding their brains

Corporations learned in the middle of the last century that consumer attention could be diverted away from the actions of corporations and toward the actions of individual consumers. Think of the Keep America Beautiful ads from the 1970s and the focus on individual recycling. Home recycling is just a tiny drop in the bucket of our waste problems, but it gave consumers a way to feel like we have some control over the problem and also conveniently gave us something to focus on over here (someone just THREW OUT a soda bottle, that jerk!) while ignoring what’s going on over there (manufacturers throwing massive amounts of waste directly into landfills, plastic single-use packaging, etc, etc).

MAHA is just another in the series of campaigns to distract people from systemic problems by giving them something else on that topic that seems to be under our personal control. Plus bonus points for appealing to well-off and middle-class women as a demographic group.
