There are some reasons why you can have an incomplete picture of maga.
-If you live in an information bubble where the only thing you see are from bootlickers.
-If you have been raised by a politically charged family, if not in a -literal or not- cult.
-If the cognitive dissonance makes you ignore some things unconsciously.
And among the testimonies on the site, there are people who were supportive to MAGA while being aware of what they are, then did an heel-face turn.
It’s pretty courageous to change our mind about politics and admit we were wrong or blindfolded. Instead of being stubbornly mad at them, we should support them.
So uh… check the store out. Starts to look a whole fucking lot like grift when you do. And considering that, I would absolutely not be shocked if they just threw a bunch of ChatGPT output in as “testimonials”.
Yeah. As a UCLA alumni, USC is University of Southern California. That’s it. That’s who the acronym is for. I feel like anyone trying to appropriate that would simply be laughed out of the room.
That’s disappointing. At least on bright side maybe this means there’s enough people leaving MAGA that they think it’s a viable market to grift? But then to what end?
And there’s really two kinds of people to fleece with this one scheme: 1) people who want to leave MAGA but like most MAGA are addicted to buying worthless trash, and 2) people who are desperately trying to get their family out of MAGA so they send them this link to convince them. The human desire for catharsis is strong and therefore exploitable.

I saw one testimonial of a J6er from my home state and something in his biography threw me off. I wasn’t sure what it was until you mentioned AI.

Nobody here calls it University of Southern Connecticut. Nobody.
And ESPECIALLY nobody abbreviates his alma mater as USC. Not a single fucking soul, no matter how much of a drunkard they are.

So clearly what they did was take the guy’s actual Wikipedia article and fed it into ChatGpt with the prompt: “have this guy write an apology letter.”

So, yeah, my vibe on this is “scam”

Money is in fact an end.
