Rationalization rationalization. Are they doing something bad and supporting bad politicians, which should be outside the bounds of acceptability? Do they know it?

Also Tim Cook is from Alabama, just to pick one. Georgians can work in tech and finance and heck even move to SF or NYC. Or they can work remotely. Or they can work in hundreds of other non tech fields and make great livings as Americans. You are condescending as hell about these people in your defense of them and attempt to shield them from criticism.

Let me help you state your point in a non condescending way: “these people believe the pointy stick is pointed at them. They are engaging in acts of provocation and culture war because they feel threatened. They’re being radicalized to supporting acts of outright violence against medical practitioners and the US Government. They have their reasons.” Doesn’t sound so sympathetic when it’s put that way but also more evenhanded than your “the unfair world maaaaakes them do it also it’s really your fault” misty eyed silliness.
