First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

There, that's the official motto of trump supporters.
The storied history of low-information voters being informed. Between that and no-empayhy voters having "done unto them", we are getting a lot of red-thrned-blue going on.

I'm glad he's changed his mind at the literal last minute, but it baffles me every day how ignorant people can be.

Every time I make the mistake of visiting that sub, I want to smack the mod who locked it. I don't even know if his grievances were legit, but clearly the only people he's hurting are the folks who would like to post to the sub.
Edit: Are .world Admins aware? Do they have a position on the situation? Do they give a crap? Anyone know?
We're aware. AFAIK, nobody has expressed interest in taking over that community and bringing it back to life.
@[email protected] would you like to volunteer?
It's funny you should ask that; I was just about to reach out to ruud over Matrix and have been thinking about it for a couple weeks. I'd love to if that's alright with the admin team.
Do it, you don't suck.
Hey, you shouldn't presume to know what other people do with their free time.

The dude who crashed the market with multiple tweets multiple times is more trusted than Dems who markets always do better under?

Florida is filled to the brim with Hispanic folks that love Trump. It makes no goddamn sense to me.
It makes no goddamn sense to me.

Cuban expats that are vehemently anti communist.
And who have apparently assimilated so well into US society that they have no idea what communism actually is anymore. A democrat vote is still miles away from anything even remotely resembling communism.
When I was a teenager that started follow the politics of the US, I was extremely confused about the Republicans calling the left liberals, because our liberals were center-right.
It took me a few years to stumble upon the Overton window (without using that name at that time).

Man, the US really is getting its mileage out of the Red Scare.
I’m going to guess they’re into theocracies.
Conservatism.
How much sense does it make for poor people to support Trump? Or women?

"Nicky jam is hot". The fact that Trump didn't even bother to know about him when thinking he was a female onstage I'm guessing would have been the first red flag for him
Considering he had good form pretending to suck off that microphone, and was best friends with Epstein, I think he truly mean "Nicky Jam is hot."

Trump didn't even know who you were dude. Glad you pulled support but fuck you.
I know of a handful of other Latin Americans who still want to vote for the fucker. They can't articulate why they'd vote for him other than a vague economic reason, even after reminding them of all the heinous shit he spews about people who don't look like him.
The "the economy was better under Trump" segment of voters is so depressing.
His policies were basically tariffs and random shiny object populist issues. His policies raised prices regressively while creating entire foreign industries that didn't exist before that now price-anchor US products through his tariffs and trade restrictions, such as soybean. Blew up NAFTA just to replace it with an almost identical arrangement. He alienated our biggest allies and trade partners. He pushed down interest rates even when it wasn't needed, ignoring the housing and stock bubble it created, because it made him look good.
It always reminds me how effective repeating a lie is - their "vibe" is that he's some great businessman, and it's enough to get their vote. They never check the sources for that "fact" (which are all Trump's own self-aggrandizing statements).

Even economic reason is absent with Trump.
I've got extended married-in family that are literally mexican illegal immigrants from the 80s who made a life in America. They have family in Juarez they see regularly. They believe illegal immigration is the most important issue, and think trump is best on it. Holy shit.
Everytime this comes up I think about that Trump supporter who was married to an illegal immigrant and was shocked her husband got deported.
That was like my favorite story. Like you were literally married, they're officially a citizen if you just did the paper work....
Never expected the orange leopard to eat MY face.
I'm crying at the fact that this guy thought trump would be good for the economy.

I guess he wasn't paying attention when Trump treated Puerto Rico like shit during his term in office.
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/29/us/puerto-ricans-trump-insult.html
We've been trying to tell you. When he gets your vote and gets into office, he's not going to give a shit about you. Listen to the people who already got fucked the last time he was president.
I used to endorse trump, but then I realized that I actually never endorsed him because I have a fucking working brain and I'm not a stupid 'murican.
I'm sorry to say that, but I think that moronic statement is pretty much the US in a nutshell. I mean Trump is one of just two presidential candidates...and it seems to be a close election.
what this election cycle has shown is that although it appeared to simmer down a lot over the last half century, racists just faded into the hedgerows simpson style to grow behind the bushes. trump has dragged them out into the open enough that ee can now see the depth in more detail
