Farming used to be just hard work. Now with things like Monsanto trademarking crops so farmers need to buy new seed every year or john deere making it illegal to repair their tractors so you need to go directly through them, farmers are feeling the greedy pinch of enshittification. Suddenly hard work alone is not enough to just survive as a farmer. Now take a blowhard like Trump telling them how much "illegals" and other "others" are the cause of their sad existence and they just hop right on that train.
The problem is if the other person doesn't go higher. You can completely refute the central claim of their argument. But if they simply respond by essentially shoving their fingers in their ears yelling "I can't hear you!" the argument will go no further.
