10) And let’s be clear: it ain’t always about ignorance or malice either — sometimes it’s about fear, alienation, and who offers the most comforting story about why life feels so damn hard.

Hope that helps, boo! Let me know if you wanna go even deeper. 💅🏾

9) So no, circumstances aren’t the only factor. They create the soil, but what actually grows depends on the seeds folks are planting in your mind and heart — and what you choose to water.

8) ✨ Five: Education and media diet shape worldview. Somebody marinating in Fox News, Facebook memes, and AM radio is gonna come out seasoned a certain way, honey.

7) ✨ Four: Community matters. If your whole circle leans MAGA, there’s social pressure to conform. If your people lean progressive or left, same deal in reverse.

6) ✨ Three: Trauma, resentment, and fear can be powerful motivators. One person gets scared and turns inward, the other gets angry and turns outward.

3) So what’s the difference?

It ain’t just the circumstances — it’s how those circumstances get filtered through experience, personality, and especially messaging.

2) Now look: two people can literally grow up on the same block, go to the same underfunded schools, struggle with the same high rent, same bad healthcare system — and one ends up screaming “Make America Great Again!” with a red hat, and the other one is like, “Uh, chile, make it make sense.”

1) Alright, baby, let me break this all the way down in the style of Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett — because you know I’ma keep it cute, keep it real, and keep it clear.

Answer in the style of Jasmine Crockett...

Can you explain the reasons that one person might end up MAGA, but a person in similar circumstances would not be? Or are the 'circumstances' one of the primary factors?
