Look, if these complete morons on the Right want to vote against their self-interests and America, they are beyond help, and all I will do is keep working my a-- off to make sure people understand this.
What we have is a failure to communicate on the Left.
You know, I see their giant Trump signs stuck hard in the farm fields in my state and wonder just what it in the hell it is they could possibly be thinking about. If the fascist, orange goon they supported follows through and runs undocumented and “lesser-thans” out of this country those farms they own will most certainly die.
Worse. They know it. They know full well those farms can only exist because of the labor our new immigrants provide and the government subsidies they have been receiving from me (us) forever. That on one hand they need these folks (and funds) to operate, and the other, still support the man who campaigned on running them out of this country, is some of the most hardcore bigotry I have ever heard of.
The truth is these people support the America-attacking blowhard because he stirs their cold blood. He makes them feel good about looking backward instead of at all the possibilities ahead. He makes them feel good about thinking they are the only thing that matters and that they have somehow been cheated out of their dark, empty lives.
They aren’t garbage. They are actually worse than that: They are selfish.
They don’t want to make America better. They want to make everybody else’s lives worse.
All they are is angry, and have finally found a lewd, racist conman who can put a megaphone to their tantrums, and deal the rest of America plenty of pain. He has no goddamn answers for them or us.
What we have right now is a MASSIVE messaging problem.
From the minute the Biden Administration took power it worked like hell to tackle a global crisis that was exacerbated by the previous administration. I mean, holy s— even infrastructure got done, and do you know who has benefited most from that? White people.
If that didn’t resonate, it’s not because it didn’t happen. It’s because too many people didn’t know about it.
These selfish Conservative babies exited the road to progress years ago to search for a dead end where they could be coddled and burped by right-wing phonies who are happy to make house calls in exchange for their undivided time and money. They aren’t interested in real news; they are interested in propaganda that makes them feel good about themselves and America, which never existed. It’s all over their radio stations and in their churches … It’s on the Internet, their TVs, and even in their newspapers that Conservative billionaires have bought up in increasing numbers.
There is nothing comparable to this information machine on the Left, and as I wrote this weekend, it needs to be addressed, but quick.
These white people have proven without a shadow of a doubt that they will literally eat their own if it means holding onto the power they have had in this country for 248 years.
Ah yes, another maga apologist. Hopefully eventually people like you will realise that this world is never going to get better while you play in the ball pit eith all the other kids. If republicans dont want to act like adults, then dont treat them like adults. Remove their agency. Ridicule them. Publically shame them every chance you get. The only chance we have of ever fixing this country is to shame the right so completely that we leave it as part of our culture that we dont stand for this bullshit.
You say “your body, my choice” and as far as im concerned you are no longer a human capable of autonomy. You have just forfeited your human rights.
My sibling in Christ, if there is one thing that did not contribute to Trump winning the election, it is not enough shaming by leftists. If anything there is too much.
Committed Trumpists can’t be shamed. They love it when the left try to shame them because that means they’re “triggered”. And as a result non-political “centrists” who “just want to grill” can’t be shamed because they’ve got people on the one hand telling them they should be ashamed and people on the other telling them they’re doing nothing wrong; in fact, they’re doing great! Who do you think they’ll side with?
Don’t get me wrong, I am not defending either of these groups of people. However shame is ultimately only effective when you can convince someone that what they’re doing is shameful, and to do that you have to bring them on side first. Yes, it sucks having to play nice and be patient with the “non-committed voter”, but ultimately the right has the left outmatched both in the ability use violence and the ability to appeal to people who don’t actually want to do anything.
Anyone who says “your body, my choice” is a lost cause though, feel free to punch those people all you want.
