I know people want to try to reach the humanity of other people as much as they can but eventually you’ve gotta admit that anyone thats still voting republican after the last 10 years is because they’re simply an asshole.

I know people here in TN a very red state that if they don’t vote Republican no matter who it is they are kicked out of the family. My son-in-law is one. It’s from generation to generation. It’s truly sad.
Why do you have to tell your family how you voted ? Just lie and don’t talk about politics with them.
I learned to lie in about 4th grade cause every Monday the teacher would ask who went to Sunday school and church on Sunday so we could earn a gold star.
His family talk politics and racist stuff all the time. He stood up to that in 2016 and said he was voting for Hillary. His mother said then you need to go and that was that.
I have come to believe that they're in a media bubble. Obviously even 10% of Trumps antics are disqualifying to someone like myself, but fox spins everything and shines Trump in a positive light so even that 10% doesn't ge through to them.
It's sadly so much more complicated. I know so many good people who are just being lied to, brainwashed, and have absolutely no idea what is real and what isn't. They basically eat up anything that claims to fix something they're heavily emotionally invested in, and Republicans prey on that.
Way to fight hate with hate - make generalization that are objectively false and harmful.
I don't know what sample data of life you have, but I know mine, and it's diverse. Born and raised on wick / welfare, self-taught programmer in game dev, VT, ID, WA, rich, poor, drug dealers, etc.
They are not good people. That ship sailed when Trump came down the escalator and they got on board. No good person would support that. Their performative, totally fake, pantomime of what is vaguely perceived as "good" has got you fooled. That's part of the problem. It's a moral failure all around.
That’s the first thing I think of now when someone tells me they are a Republican. I almost want to blurt out “oh… you mean you’re an asshole”. Haven’t done it yet but who knows, I might get there. Between my age (59) and the fact that I DontGivADam it could happen any day now.
I don't know, I see an ocean of misinformation and a lot of people who aren't well educated in critical thinking, and focus my rage on those who willfully and cynically mislead.
If people who voted to hurt other people end up hurting themselves, any schadenfreude I experience as a secondary result isn't going to be their deciding factor if they insist on continuing to vote to hurt themselves. And any outstretched arm isn't going to change their minds. They are lost people.
🎯👊🏿 sit back and sip on a cup of ☕️. Voting against things that keep them functioning as a collective its the most idiotic thing to do. It's like bringing hardship onto themselves when it can totally be avoided.
There is a massive difference between words and actions. Sure, call us whatever you want (I don't approve), but take away our disability compensation and other benefits? That's an entirely different and dangerous ball game.
God I hope so. He’s insulted and disrespected them from 2015 on & they still voted for him. It’s time for them to stand up and help stop this insanity.
They must not know the damage an upset grizzly bear can do. Eventually, they will fafo. Let's not take our eyes off of The Heritage Foundation many of its personnel had alot to do with the way things are happening right now in America. They're just another organized extreme conservative group.
My cousin is a vet and he basically said the minute they touch veteran's benefits it's like waking up a bunch of killerbees waiting to sting its threat.
Also food for thought: how do you think future military members will feel about enlisting after seeing this all go down… all while the orange twat seems to be wanting war on several fronts including at home.
The sense of a revolt by veterans its very well possibly brewing. It definitely shows that Muskrat and Dirty diaper Don could careless about the veterans who sacrificed their Iives serving the USA. Let the veterans have at this administration and let's not forget The Heritage they caused this mess.
My recommendations: Destroy Tesla, Starlink, SpaceX, Neuralink and Boring Co. Designate Musk a foreign and domestic enemy. Seize his companies, the employees and his assets. Give him Capital Punishment on live stream. Deal with the employees uniquely and publicly for being traitors.
Bury him under the prison or send him to solidarity confinement for the rest of his life. He's attempting to take over the world don't forget about his old sidekick old Pete Thiel whose done alot of funding to politicians, election races candidates, and a few hard right conservatives podcasters.
I heard that was a good one to read. The list is long when it comes to draining pool politics. The briefcases of money were giving rights by our highest court of the land. There's alot of older southern conservative white men who are controlling the levers and writing nasty laws & policies.
RtwingNUT radicalization works and they’ve had decades of it. Americans en masse need to sue these billionaires for using Information Warfare to install an unstable fascist dictator lover&destroy our country!

Is it something you would take on?
That .makes no sense. None. You literally voted for the person that will unalive and threatens to murder Gaza people almost daily. You have to live with know what you have done for the rest of time
Some still voting Republican are just deeply brainwashed to believe that it's the Democrats that want to destroy the country. I know one elderly person who is kind to others including minorities, but is unreachable after 30 years of Fox News.

They're either utterly stupid or complicit.
Brainwashed or not, they made the choice and willingly ignored all data and evidence.
Red states are bailed out by Blue states and never feel the consequences of their votes or feel they feel minor consequences and still blame Dems.
Who is the tool singing about "the common man"? They know they're being lied to but choose the lies that feed their hate.
