Then you’re merely allied with the majority of Trump voters who do hate people. Cool.
Well then they are being willfully ignorant. Trump has been very clear about how he feels (or at least how he panders to how the Right feels) about people of colour and queer people and immigrants and women. You have to be willfully deluding yourself to think he’s not based in hatred and awfulness.
And that might all be true. The problem is...
That’s the problem, though. All sorts of people are nice to their friends while supporting monstrous policies. It’s pretty hard to care if someone is nice to their friend when they want to destroy the lives of everyone who doesn’t look and live exactly like them.
No. I’m making absolutely zero assumptions here, aside from the assumption that you are telling the truth about who they voted for.
No, it’s not stupid. You just summed up angry, rural, undereducated white America with the perfect quote.
If you vote for a man who is openly racist, sexist, and lies about things HE ACTUALLY SAID ON TAPE, you are not a good person. You either agree with his rhetoric or have no problem standing by because it doesn’t affect you personally. But that affects ME personally. Your friends are bad people.
I am actually kind of scared for us queer folk... and women, and anyone not white.
Let me just say this again...because you missed it.
They supported a racist, misogynistic, intolerant, con-man for president. Thats who they wanted to represent them. They wanted a racist, misogynistic, intolerant, con-man to represent them to the world.
Wait until they look at their 401ks tomorrow, and their social security after it’s turned over to DJT to build magnificent hotels.
I just finished a 12 hour day working as an election clerk. The amount of people who didnt know the basic voting laws in our state yet where there to vote astounded me. If you don’t know whether your state is a ID mandated state, what times the polls close, who is and isn’t allowed in the booth with you how can you…
You should go make friends who don’t suck.
I’m sure they are. One can still very kindly have a negative impact on the world.
After eight years of GW Bush pissed away a huge budget surplus, pissed away all of America’s foreign goodwill, and just made life in America worse in every imaginable way—there’s no excuse for ignorance. Fuck your friends.
They do not wish ill on anyone. My Trump-voting friends are kind, helpful, sweet people.
I would say there is no doubt they are stupid people.
You ask me, supporting a racist rapist who has zero policies and only stokes bigotry and hatred makes someone a pretty terrible person. But, then again, I’m a queer woman whose friends are largely women, queer folks, and POCs. You know, the people Trump and his followers hate and plan to punish for existing.
Most of the people I know who like him aren’t bad.
