Why do people buy into MAGA?

MAGA is a Ponzi scheme of lies.

Why do people buy into Ponzi schemes?

Because they promise power and riches and all you have to do is follow a simple formula that is nothing short of being magical. It is easy to lie, the Stable Genius says. All you need do is keep repeating. Lies make him rich, lies will make you rich too.

Ponzi schemes can last a long time and suck in large numbers of people. Remember Bernie Madoff?

Human beings crave order and stability. What is more orderly and stable than regular income—or other kinds of benefit—for years and years on end.

Everybody likes to live on Easy Street.
