We got a brand 00:00:08.380 --> 00:00:11.859 new testimonial for you today of a gentleman 00:00:11.859 --> 00:00:14.140 who left MAGA. I'm going to bring him in. His 00:00:14.140 --> 00:00:18.399 name is David Remington from the great state 00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:22.539 of Oregon. David, first off, thank you for being 00:00:22.539 --> 00:00:26.949 with us today. Let's get right into it. What 00:00:26.949 --> 00:00:28.670 I want to know and viewers are going to want 00:00:28.670 --> 00:00:34.689 to know is talk about what attracted you to the 00:00:34.689 --> 00:00:37.289 MAGA community and the MAGA movement. And before 00:00:37.289 --> 00:00:39.570 I have you answer that, let's just make it clear 00:00:39.570 --> 00:00:42.409 for everyone that you did not vote for Trump 00:00:42.409 --> 00:00:46.770 in 2024. No, I didn't vote for Trump in 2024. 00:00:46.869 --> 00:00:50.329 All right. Thank you. I just want everyone to 00:00:50.329 --> 00:00:52.229 know you voted for Kamala. You didn't vote for 00:00:52.229 --> 00:00:55.210 Trump because. case someone says too little too 00:00:55.210 --> 00:00:58.250 late you voted for you voted for kamala but talk 00:00:58.250 --> 00:01:03.409 about what why you gravitated to the mega community 00:01:03.409 --> 00:01:05.730 and the movement what was enticing and appealing 00:01:05.730 --> 00:01:12.069 to you about it well like i grew up as like a 00:01:12.069 --> 00:01:14.549 conservative i know that there's this whole like 00:01:14.549 --> 00:01:19.590 like uh network of young conservative movements 00:01:19.590 --> 00:01:23.609 like turning point usa and etc things like that 00:01:23.609 --> 00:01:28.510 now. But when I was a little middle schooler 00:01:28.510 --> 00:01:34.230 back, God knows when, like in maybe like the 00:01:34.230 --> 00:01:38.450 Bush years, I was a young conservative and I 00:01:38.450 --> 00:01:41.810 was constantly battling the teachers, constantly 00:01:41.810 --> 00:01:45.090 trolling, all because of what I heard on like 00:01:45.090 --> 00:01:57.280 right wing. talk radio because I was all into 00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:01.620 all those personalities, Lars Larson, Michael 00:02:01.620 --> 00:02:05.260 Savage. It was a kind of like counter culture 00:02:05.260 --> 00:02:12.099 to me growing up in like the incredibly liberal 00:02:12.099 --> 00:02:18.379 Portland, Oregon area. And I was just, I was 00:02:18.379 --> 00:02:22.460 into this identity as a conservative at an early 00:02:22.460 --> 00:02:26.580 age and my dad was very approving of it he's 00:02:26.580 --> 00:02:30.639 the one who listened to me in the car with these 00:02:30.639 --> 00:02:35.340 personalities and i just made it my identity 00:02:35.340 --> 00:02:39.219 and it was so integral to me being a part of 00:02:39.219 --> 00:02:44.360 that and what brought me to maga in 2016 and 00:02:44.360 --> 00:02:48.180 something is that i still felt that i still felt 00:02:48.180 --> 00:02:53.550 like Like the liberal culture around me was kind 00:02:53.550 --> 00:02:56.449 of hostile and like I had these own set of beliefs 00:02:56.449 --> 00:03:02.550 I had these own set of like identities and It 00:03:02.550 --> 00:03:05.949 led me to do some things like join the military 00:03:05.949 --> 00:03:16.199 Very like Like I always viewed like the people 00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:18.840 around me as kind of like rule breakers. So like 00:03:18.840 --> 00:03:22.759 I was very into obeying the law which is very 00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:32.020 kind of like not so This so pertinent and and 00:03:32.020 --> 00:03:42.490 like Portland but Like I Like I thought MAGA 00:03:42.490 --> 00:03:48.349 was this fun, energetic movement that drawn me 00:03:48.349 --> 00:03:54.169 to fight back against all the hostility, the 00:03:54.169 --> 00:03:59.210 menacing, all of that. And it was just this fun 00:03:59.210 --> 00:04:02.789 way to fight back against that. And in a way, 00:04:02.870 --> 00:04:06.810 we saw Trump as a hero coming down to save us 00:04:06.810 --> 00:04:12.569 like Portland conservatives. from this kind of 00:04:12.569 --> 00:04:17.810 like scummy culture that I grew up in. And like, 00:04:17.850 --> 00:04:25.290 I don't see like it that way now. I don't feel 00:04:25.290 --> 00:04:31.069 like liberalism is like the enemy, but back then 00:04:31.069 --> 00:04:34.509 it was my worldview and it attracted me to all 00:04:34.509 --> 00:04:38.029 sorts of personalities like Andy Ngo and et cetera. 00:04:38.949 --> 00:04:43.430 to where I was the anti -Portland guy, this guy 00:04:43.430 --> 00:04:46.730 who was in Portland, and everything was just 00:04:46.730 --> 00:04:56.949 counter to that. I just drew into all this Twitter 00:04:56.949 --> 00:05:02.970 stuff, and Twitter itself is a big magnet for 00:05:02.970 --> 00:05:06.769 me. So I was always on that site. I was always 00:05:06.769 --> 00:05:10.610 into the latest controversy. I was always drawn 00:05:10.610 --> 00:05:15.490 into it. I watched Trump tweet about North Korea 00:05:15.490 --> 00:05:18.569 and stuff and all sorts of things throughout 00:05:18.569 --> 00:05:23.089 my adult life, right? And this website, Twitter, 00:05:23.189 --> 00:05:30.970 has been a big part of my going through the last 00:05:30.970 --> 00:05:35.149 10 years. so you found thank you because you 00:05:35.149 --> 00:05:39.889 found the the meaning the community i can particularly 00:05:39.889 --> 00:05:44.370 relate to wanting to uh obliterate the established 00:05:44.370 --> 00:05:48.769 political order and the status quo before 2015 00:05:48.769 --> 00:05:51.790 and 16 i had voted for third parties many times 00:05:51.790 --> 00:05:55.870 i was a political person but i looking back on 00:05:55.870 --> 00:05:59.009 it i was quite ignorant and cynical and i think 00:05:59.009 --> 00:06:05.050 the community that you and i found while i'm 00:06:05.050 --> 00:06:10.490 not defending my time that i was in maga i think 00:06:10.490 --> 00:06:13.550 seeking out a community that we all need a communal 00:06:13.550 --> 00:06:18.170 existence that's a that's a relatively non -controversial 00:06:18.170 --> 00:06:20.490 anodyne reason that i think a lot of people were 00:06:20.490 --> 00:06:23.750 attracted to maga and so i what you're saying 00:06:23.750 --> 00:06:27.069 is really resonating with us it's it's undoubtedly 00:06:27.069 --> 00:06:30.889 going to resonate with others We've done testimonials 00:06:30.889 --> 00:06:35.370 with who left MAGA. So talk about, okay, so you're 00:06:35.370 --> 00:06:38.430 in the community now and you're deep in like 00:06:38.430 --> 00:06:43.750 I was. What was life in MAGA like for you? Well, 00:06:43.949 --> 00:06:48.810 so there was times where it was fun. So there 00:06:48.810 --> 00:06:52.550 was times where I went to like rallies, was invited 00:06:52.550 --> 00:06:55.670 to rallies. I didn't quite know what these rallies 00:06:55.670 --> 00:07:03.750 necessarily meant. or why the left were so offended 00:07:03.750 --> 00:07:07.389 by these rallies, how they were so repugnant 00:07:07.389 --> 00:07:10.230 to them. I just thought, well, it's your right 00:07:10.230 --> 00:07:15.449 to protest, so God will do it. And I went to 00:07:15.449 --> 00:07:20.449 these things, and they were fun. And I met a 00:07:20.449 --> 00:07:24.379 fellow. mega people. I got to wave like a Blue 00:07:24.379 --> 00:07:27.639 Lives Matter flag. I got to wave a mega flag. 00:07:28.600 --> 00:07:32.660 And it was just like, you know, we're just going 00:07:32.660 --> 00:07:36.779 to this protest and we're gonna like build a 00:07:36.779 --> 00:07:41.439 wall and we're gonna be just a part of this thing. 00:07:41.699 --> 00:07:46.339 And it was like so enticing. However, there were 00:07:46.339 --> 00:07:49.980 times where people were incredibly menacing to 00:07:49.980 --> 00:07:53.990 me. For doing that and it was quite scary because 00:07:53.990 --> 00:07:56.990 if you know anything about Portland politics 00:07:56.990 --> 00:08:02.949 well, it's it's like Trump says this is where 00:08:02.949 --> 00:08:07.850 people kill people and Like it's it's not like 00:08:07.850 --> 00:08:11.670 the Liberals are bad. It's you don't want like 00:08:11.670 --> 00:08:16.290 in my opinion now looking at it back then like 00:08:16.290 --> 00:08:24.290 there's a there's a false sort of like false 00:08:24.290 --> 00:08:29.670 equivalency to these people and some of the things 00:08:29.670 --> 00:08:34.649 I was about you know and sort of like a judgment 00:08:34.649 --> 00:08:44.190 but the the reality was is that it was very we 00:08:44.190 --> 00:08:48.649 were in a very hostile culture Like I was a college 00:08:48.649 --> 00:08:51.809 Republican in Portland, Oregon, and I kind of 00:08:51.809 --> 00:08:55.409 felt like being an ant under a magnifying glass. 00:08:55.690 --> 00:08:59.370 So it's just like there's just so much hostility, 00:08:59.450 --> 00:09:05.830 so much antagonism. And even during the pandemic, 00:09:05.929 --> 00:09:10.549 it was like this where I wasn't too like opinionated. 00:09:10.590 --> 00:09:14.389 Like I just had like an opinion about masks. 00:09:15.450 --> 00:09:18.190 in this college life group that's just totally 00:09:18.190 --> 00:09:22.750 non -political, like college life group. And 00:09:22.750 --> 00:09:25.210 they like harassed me. I probably could have 00:09:25.210 --> 00:09:29.409 like sued them for this harassment. And I didn't 00:09:29.409 --> 00:09:32.710 because they're just college students. But like 00:09:32.710 --> 00:09:39.169 the thing is, is like they use really dehumanizing 00:09:39.169 --> 00:09:42.789 language. You're a subhuman. You suck. You're 00:09:42.789 --> 00:09:45.960 a terrible person. We're not going to give you 00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:50.419 a platform. We're not going to treat you like 00:09:50.419 --> 00:09:54.860 a human being. And I just felt this like hostility. 00:09:56.100 --> 00:09:59.940 But here's the thing. Here's the thing where 00:09:59.940 --> 00:10:03.580 I changed is the literacy of it all. The literacy. 00:10:03.740 --> 00:10:07.539 What does this mean? What am I for? What am I 00:10:07.539 --> 00:10:11.519 about? What am I supporting? And I just see this 00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:16.080 literacy. as like a false equivalence. So yes, 00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:21.279 I was treated poorly. Yes, I was harassed. Yes, 00:10:21.360 --> 00:10:25.759 I was doxxed by Antifa or all these kind of like 00:10:25.759 --> 00:10:29.820 left wing far left groups. But what was I for? 00:10:29.980 --> 00:10:33.639 What was I about? What made them so angry? And 00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:37.200 I just became more apparent that I was wearing 00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:40.419 a skin suit of something that I wasn't necessarily. 00:10:42.320 --> 00:10:48.080 in my soul of souls about right so that's that's 00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:54.679 that's where i feel like the you know there's 00:10:54.679 --> 00:11:02.179 the there's the feeling of like i felt these 00:11:02.179 --> 00:11:07.200 perpetual states of desperation and despair and 00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:10.820 and panic and paranoia in in maga you know and 00:11:10.820 --> 00:11:13.960 you just you've talked about liberalism i've 00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:18.159 been saying this ad nauseam for many many months 00:11:18.159 --> 00:11:22.899 now that there is no prevailing ideology in maga 00:11:22.899 --> 00:11:27.139 the closest to an ideology is a conviction that 00:11:27.139 --> 00:11:29.899 liberalism and liberal democracy are the source 00:11:29.899 --> 00:11:32.960 they're the sources of all of our personal and 00:11:32.960 --> 00:11:36.590 national ills i didn't think of it that way. 00:11:36.669 --> 00:11:38.990 I don't think people in MAGA now think about 00:11:38.990 --> 00:11:43.269 it that way. Maybe, David, it wasn't precisely 00:11:43.269 --> 00:11:45.149 how you might have thought about it at the time, 00:11:45.169 --> 00:11:48.370 but looking back on it, that's what we thought 00:11:48.370 --> 00:11:51.330 about liberalism and liberal democracy. Those 00:11:51.330 --> 00:11:56.370 were the causes of everything that was wrong 00:11:56.370 --> 00:12:00.809 in our lives and in our country. So you've got 00:12:00.809 --> 00:12:03.730 that camaraderie that's in MAGA, just like I 00:12:03.730 --> 00:12:08.049 had. Talk about when that started to change for 00:12:08.049 --> 00:12:11.190 you. What were some specific events, do you recall 00:12:11.190 --> 00:12:13.529 when they were, where your doubts started to 00:12:13.529 --> 00:12:16.389 commence and you started to have uncertainty 00:12:16.389 --> 00:12:18.350 and you started to question your belief system? 00:12:19.129 --> 00:12:23.429 Well, part of it was going to these rallies, 00:12:23.570 --> 00:12:26.850 right? I'd buddy up with these rallies. I'd be 00:12:26.850 --> 00:12:32.529 waving these flags. I'd be presenting a political 00:12:32.529 --> 00:12:37.159 stance. And like something terrible would happen 00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:41.159 to me, like say the Antifa doxxed me and my friends. 00:12:41.600 --> 00:12:44.639 And what I would actually do is actually read 00:12:44.639 --> 00:12:48.039 their like, what they actually said. And this 00:12:48.039 --> 00:12:51.399 is the literacy about it. So what made them so 00:12:51.399 --> 00:12:57.379 angry? Well, maybe like I'm not the most egregious 00:12:57.379 --> 00:13:03.340 like mega guy, but like other people. who were 00:13:03.340 --> 00:13:08.340 doxxed like some of them were like people who 00:13:08.340 --> 00:13:11.279 went to charlottesville or some of them were 00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:14.840 like really far right and what were they about 00:13:14.840 --> 00:13:19.059 am i about that that's not what i thought when 00:13:19.059 --> 00:13:22.700 i joined mega i was having a good time i was 00:13:22.700 --> 00:13:27.720 fighting like joe biden or hillary clinton or 00:13:27.720 --> 00:13:29.720 like hillary clinton with the fly in her mouth 00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:32.850 or some Some sort of funny thing like that. I 00:13:32.850 --> 00:13:36.389 was I was having a good time and like you know 00:13:36.389 --> 00:13:40.889 and like things didn't seem Things didn't seem 00:13:40.889 --> 00:13:46.330 so like Like in my opinion like I didn't think 00:13:46.330 --> 00:13:51.909 I was Too like asking too much like I just wanted 00:13:51.909 --> 00:13:58.480 to make some laws like like illegal aliens That 00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:00.679 that's already a crime, right? That's why they're 00:14:00.679 --> 00:14:04.039 called illegal aliens. In my mind, that's not 00:14:04.039 --> 00:14:09.379 asking a lot. But considering the way, like, 00:14:09.379 --> 00:14:13.019 MAGA dehumanizes them, it's kind of asking for 00:14:13.019 --> 00:14:21.080 a lot more than what I thought it was. Do you 00:14:21.080 --> 00:14:23.700 feel like, David, you know, you identify as conservative 00:14:23.700 --> 00:14:26.580 and here...
