....is that they know they're jackbooted thugs and don't care. Hypocrites - they know they're hypocrites and don't care if you call them one.
They don't have shame like normal people. If you point out their hypocrisy or fascism, they're not going to go, "Oh, dang, I should probably straighten out..." They're going to scream in your face and try to have you arrested. Because that's what fascists and hypocrites do.
Occasionally they cross a line so boldly that crybaby Republicans will demand an apology. "You had me arrested because I had a Trump bumper sticker, had my kid taken away by social services, and shot my dog. You should apologize!" The fascist may indeed apologize, then they're right back at it and keep it up until Republicans get tired of chastising them and, like a worn out mom of toddlers, just goes, "Whatever. Run wild, I'm tired of fooling with you."
"Exposing" these people is pointless. Anyone with a thinking brain already knows what they are, and the cult community either won't believe it or doesn't care. Empty threats don't work and appeals to civility don't work either. There needs to be a consequence for one's action and incentive to do better.
Exposing them and demanding apologies isn't enough.
