If you call it out before it happens, they call you alarmist. If you point it out afterwards, they’ve already normalized it
They’re not engaging with facts. That’s a whole other plane that doesn’t intersect. It’s just feelings and in-group.
When you point it out early, you’re disparaging the in-group so that must be rejected. When you point it out after… You’re still disparaging the in-group so that must be rejected.
They just care about their power, and pissing off those that criticize them.
Thats why they sit there and smile and spout blatantly obvious bullshit in response to facts and evidence.
Because watching you provide a solid argument that they can derail with the most heinous made up bullshit is amusing to them. Pissing you off is amusing to them.

That’s all there is to it.
They don’t care about facts.
THey don’t care about engagement.
