The moment you understand that MAGA is the party of hate is the moment you understand this election. It explains both Islamic and Latino support for Republicans. They were betrayed by Democrats, and are willing to let the rest of us hang for it. I hope selling out for the center Republicans was worth destroying the demographic coalition.
My wife is Indonesian Muslim, hates Kamala for what we're doing in Palestine and told me not to vote for her. I'm still voting for Kamala but man that was a hard conversation I never would have expected. Seems like the military owns everything these days
Oof, that must be a weird conversation. Am Indonesian.
Any conversation touching Islam adjacent lost any nuance with the general population more often than not . Not saying your wife is one, but let's be honest the education quality here is abysmal and at the same time we're number 1 muslim by population. Also our "Netizen" is notorious for wrongly attacking any issue they misunderstood.
One of our top singer got berated nationwide because she wore a skirt with a random arabic text in it, people thought it was a Holy script and she's Christian.
I kid you not one election season I saw an angry mob with a banner that said USA = COMMUNIST !!
Most have hard enough time just to get by day to day so I get it, they take anything to blame. With corruption top to bottom it's a sad state all around. I'm grateful it's still a relatively peaceful affair though, at least here in Java.
She understands that Trump would actively get on the ground and help the IDF out if he could, right?
The hard part is, she gets to pick between genocide, and genocide with fewer rights for women.
I don't understand why she'd pick the latter, but anger does crazy things.
Have you considered having solidarity with your wife? Did you convince her to vote Kamala, or is this still a wedge issue? Or are you not even telling her?
Have you ever considered that people aren't a hive mind?
Your copy/pasted comment is telling people to defeat MAGA with socialism. But first let's get it to hard mode by having MAGAs take over and do Project 2025, right?
It's gonna get harder. Especially if you guys have kids.
It's the dixiecrats after we took the one thing they loved: Jim Crow and their ability to be superior to anyone who isn't white.
We even dared to elect a black person president over them, they will NEVER forgive us for that, it went against everything they believe in.
You don't understand, to them this is justice for our unimaginable crimes against them, we took the only thing they had in life.
And that's how the orange turd built a cult...but constantly whining and complaining when Obama was elected. 8 years of slowly stroking the flames, birther crap, pointing out every single minor inconvenience and a failure of the president.
Would be kinda funny to double down and elect a black woman next. Bet they would just love that.
You don't understand them.
He was a MAN, he counted, well, when they didn't call him a monkey.
A woman can be dismissed, anything she does will be considered impotent and meaningless, it doesn't matter.
The south has its own logic, you can't understand without going back 200 years in time.
Wait, isn't she Indian? Did she just BECOME black?
/s
God I hope we get there...
Yes that explains the South and the Aryan Nations in the NW. They were a given in this scenario. I have plenty of experience and a little too much understanding of both.
Party of Hate. For them it's racial, religious, and cultural.
