I genuinely wish I knew even one republican who could be flipped in time, but tbh anyone who voted for trump this go around is incredibly unlikely to change

No, many of the people who voted for him, maybe half can be flipped. Might as well put in the bit of effort now because if we don't the rest of our life is only going to get much worse. Not just us but everyone. We have many advantages. One is the Republicans have to spend a ton of money to get anyone on their side. They are bleeding money like crazy trying to run propaganda. All it takes is you talking to someone and for a few dollars of your time, you can destroy tens of thousands of dollars of Republican and corporate propaganda.

bruh ive tried, but for a lot of the ones i know, trump is their god. im just too exhausted at this point to try and deprogram anyone who voted against basic human rights to make their pockets a little fuller

That's okay, maybe keep it in mind for others though. Sometimes a simple hello is all people need to know you aren't a bad person and not what their corporate propaganda portrays you as. Good luck.
