I definitely felt this way after the first time Trump was voted in. I don't anymore. You'd be shocked at how many functioning adults with high-powered jobs voted for Donald Trump this time around. Not to mention the massive numbers of Hispanics and Blacks. America owes Ukraine so much. They are truly the frontline against Russia. The Americans have forgotten what its like to truly be at war. We are going to find out soon enough.
My spouse is a Cuban immigrant but we live in Canada. He is so fucking embarrassed at the level of support Trump has gotten from the Cuban-American community. It is all over his FB feed from friends/family from back home who ended up immigrating to the USA and post all about their love of Trump. So you went through all that trouble to get away from a dictatorship and have fredom, in order to vote in a... dictator? WTF?
The black numbers were not massive for the love of god. That was the only race that voted for him under 20%. So please stop dragging them, the whites need to answer for their insanity.
i mean this in the most constructive way possible - people with pale skin aren't, like, telepathic, or some kind of borg or smth
as the saying goes, white people are "not a monolith", and i'm not sure it makes a ton of sense or helps much to frame this as "black people vs white people"
this is class war, not race war. the super-rich spent vast resources to install all the propaganda that US citizens fell for.
sure, some people everywhere are dumb or a-holes or whatever. they can still be victims of an international disinformation campaign that set out to and successfully managed to sow discord within the country
I’m a Dem, believe in tempered capitalism, was not a fan of unions when I worked in the auto industry. But now I find myself drifting farther left. I would have scoffed at “class warfare” but now I’m like yes this is class warfare and I’m hoping to see unions grow everywhere, all the time in this country. I want the selfish oligarchs crushed (not the same as rich people who cross the political spectrum- Gov. Pritzger is a positive clear eyed example). I want the patriarchy destroyed. I want democracy to reign. If this is happening to me I am sure there are others fed up with the BS.
Who cares he still won MORE of the black vote than he should have. Look at Biden's numbers from past elections. This is the problem in America right now. Too fixated on this petty bullshit when you have a real problem in the white house. Love that you personally took offense to a throwaway comment as if you are the representative for all black people in America. Don't reply back to me. You are part of the problem.
You’re the one who still keeps on talking about him winning 18% of the black vote when 82% of black people voted for Kamala. You’re the fixated idiot who is calling out the only race that solidly stood for right. Shut up fool.
We are at war right now. The enemy is within the government. Dismantling it from within. Why do you think Trump has Elon musk dismantling all the federal programs? He's trying to destroy our country for Putin
