Last time Trump got booed for saying he got vaccinated, I commented, "Now even Trump isn't Trumpy enough for the red hats", and got this reply:

"That's why populism is political dark magic & smart people stay away.You won't be able to keep up with the purity spiral once you make intolerance OK.Every culture has folklore repeating this moral, and every generation has some asshole who thinks they know better.One of the nice things about getting older is knowing right away that they will get their comeuppance."

I'm not sure I share this person's optimism about a comeuppance, but I thought it was a good point.
