This is the weird thing to me. I don’t understand how pure idealists get themselves into that position to begin with. It’s so baby brained. Even young children learn materialism when they learn object permanence. Daddy isn’t gone because he walked around that corner, he was there before he went around the corner and so he must just be around the corner. Oh see now he’s back I was right! He didn’t stop existing! And they learn.

Libs just like…forget about this. Wow Trump disappeared around the corner, guess he ceased to exist. Omg Trump came back from around the corner how is that possible I thought he stopped existing!

Their solution to the Trump problem is “let’s push him around the corner again.” It’s a completely nonsense position and yet idealism at that level is an absolute requirement for neoliberalism to function. It’s ridiculous
