TDS is a funny thing and it exists. Trouble is our world operates on "reactions to the thing are more important than the thing itself" now. Which is why there are far more YouTube reaction videos and views than the originals. Which is why a lot of people hate Fauci not so much because of Fauci, but because his fanboys are even more annoying.
We are in the era of stan competitions. The Beyhive vs the Swifties.
You cannot talk TDS anymore without talking about supporters. For a lot of voters, TDS isn't so much about Trump as it is people who dress in costume, buy the flags and the bible, and make him their entire identity on their social media profiles ... as if they have no other interests or purpose in life.
That's where the battlefield is now. Some people are juventini and the club is more than any player. That would be like stanning the GOP. Weird, but I'd get that.
Then there are the Del Piero worshippers. Getting weirder, though he is a club legend. But when it gets to the point when they wanted him on the pitch even for long stretches where he played very poorly when other forwards were more dominant... then I start to question.
And then there are the Ronaldo and Messi stans. They're the worst. It's not about the jersey at all but the name on it. I don't trust those fans and their mercenary ways creep me out. And a lot of that stanning has come to dominate Trump support.
