I work with a BUNCH of them. Trump said that we make too much money, and that if it were up to him, he'd close all the plants up north, move them to the south were the cost of living is lower, and then move them back up north at lower wages, and we'd come groveling back to them after being jobless. When we went on strike last year, he said he'd fire us for going on strike. Yet there's brainwashed/racist cacs in the plant that gargle his nuts. These stupid fukks know that we have parts and cars that are built in Canada and Mexico, and that this tariff talk will fukk us directly, but they're too goddamn stupid to know any better. fukk em. My trades classes start in January so whatever happens to them down the road happens :yeshrug:

Consider poor white southerners willing to die to protect rich white plantation owners’ right to own slaves.

Consider Trump killing thousands of his own voters via his inept covid response and the vast majority not blaming him one iota. All the super spreader events and rallies he had during the height of a global pandemic!

White supremacy is a pathology that is in the very core of this country. Millions of whites would rather destroy themselves and live in a completely delusional fantasy world than not be able to see themselves as superior to all others - even if they live in a decrepit trailer. Its the damndest thing.

Americans are fukking retarded.

Number one issue was inflation.

Kamala’s policy proposal: go after price gougers

Trumps policy proposal: tariffs which will make inflation even worse
Kamala's policy proposal did not go after price gougers. :mjlol:Hindsight 20/20, she should have gotten bills drafted to let people know how that looks like. Our government is pro-capitalist, they are not doing much to big businesses. Look at equity firms buying up businesses and destroying them and jobs for a profit.

Yep, it's this and only this. I mean that's all this shyt is about. And white people on both sides keep gaslighting acting like it's about anything else. We won't get anywhere with this if that demographic won't be honest about the real root of the problem.

Even leftists like destiny can't admit it. Because the white people that would vote for Kamala don't wanna believe how racists their people really are.
Kamala didn't run a perfect campaign and there was much to be criticized about her decision making but racism and sexism is the main culprit here. White people know exactly how racist and intolerable other white people are. That's why so many of them loathe having those 'difficult conversations' during Thanksgiving dinner with MAGA relatives. Until they start calling their own out on it, it'll always be a problem.

White people make up an over whelmingly large percentage of the electorate. Until they put aside white greivance politics the country will not progress. They would rather get fleeced by billionaire elites than have an ounce of class solidarity with people that don't look like them. It's a story as old as America itself.

It's an issue I noticed is a massive problem. Like for example, the white reparations thing from Trump...big story right? Easy content? Tell me why none of the white left wing youtubers or streamers even covered it. They'll cover way less, but that? Missed it. Only black creators covered it.

And to be honest, what scares me is that I don't even think it's intentional 100% of the time, they just subconsciously don't connect with it. And that's a bigger issue. They are almost alittle naive to the real root of what this is about.

Yeah, I thought about this before. Just because you are in a Union doesn't mean that you are necessarily pro-union or that there aren't a number of other issues that are more important to you.

Certain careers require you to be certified+in a union for safety reasons :francis: people gonna see what they wanna see to confirm their biases though
