Great video from Life Take Two (ex-Mormon/MAGA woman) about this phenomenon and the reasons behind it. In short: it's misogyny.
My partner recently started watching her videos and I saw this one. 100% accurate. She's incredibly self-reflective and really hits a lot of things as they really are. Genuine brilliance wasted by both the Mormons and MAGA because of misogyny.
I grew up in what is now deep red Trump flag territory, and the District 1/12 level of "we're the hyper-visual freaks focused on image and money, now send me donations, you filthy MAGA monkey!" is severe. Those people rarely see how genuinely grotesque many of these freaks are because it's all podcasts and talk radio and Fox News, which blunts the extreme elements. Noem and Levitt might be the only two the average person would know, and they've only known their mutilated faces, not their real faces.
If you went to a Wal-Mart in any rural town with a game called "ID the MAGA Star!" and gave $100 to anyone able to correctly identify the names of all 6 pre-multination faces, and take $1 per guess, you could go there with no cash on you and leave loaded. I would bet that you'd get lots of totally unironic pushback that Loomer is trans.
I swear, even the porn industry seems less misogynistic than MAGA when it comes to pressure to change your body.
meh they did it to themselves.
