blacks, asians, muslims men went for trump. via roegan, jordan peterson and other right wing grifters that assisted them into the manosphere.
STOP. LUMPING. BLACK. MEN. IN. WITH. THESE. SELLOUTS.
Black men were the LARGEST male group to vote for Harris. Im sick of ppl trying to claim otherwise.
Edit; also dont act like men only sold out the country. Trump's second largest voting block was WHITE WOMEN
A majority of White people voted for Trump (men and women) three elections in a row. Its unusual to treat the largest demographic in the county as a foregone conclusion and direct all ire at minority groups as a whole.
By all means, ire towards anyone that voted for Trump is acceptable but perhaps we should talk about who keeps voting for him over and over again.
or perhaps making generalizations about people based on race and sex is the inherent logical flaw of racism and sexism even if you feel you have the moral high ground.
trying to find who to point the finger at is the conservative solution. the problem lies deeper. it's in our social media, our news, our socio-economic struggles, and our culture of "rugged individualism".
like yes, the racism was always there but it was waning before billionaires got their claws into our social media feeds. and that issue goes WAAAAAY beyond America.
just like when Trump was crazy for saying covid was a hoax aimed at him even though it affected the whole world, it would be crazy to blame this GLOBAL shift to right wing authoritarianism on any one race. are white people responsible for modi?
blaming white people or men could only possibly serve to Make people angry. it's not a solution oriented approach unless you're willing to go full genocide.
-a white male who despises Trump among others and has worked hard to fight against him and is tried of somehow still getting blamed.
I've been seeing more "this minority demographic is to blame" from so called white liberals so I feel its important to challenge that notion and make it clear that the majority demographic has put their support behind Trump for three consecutive elections. In fact the majority of the majority demographic has voted for the Republican candidate since the civil rights act passed in 1964. Minorities are the only reason we've had any Democrats in the White House since then.
I agree with you generally. Pointing fingers is not a productive long term strategy. The only complicating factor here is that there are a sizable number of Trump supporters that are also Christian nationalists. Its hard to counter a racial supremacist ideology while ignoring race.
My philosophy is that looking at such data and recognizing trends is important in understanding how/why we got here but applying generalizations to an individual based on data is unproductive and reductive. I don't think all Hispanic people are responsible for Trump's election, nor are all White people.
I stopped reading after this. Racism was waning my ASS. White America voted OVER 50% for that jackass while being the largest voting block in the country. It's white ppls fault.
How the hell do you fix anything when you ignore with whom the problem lies? White ppl are the ones who are overwhelmingly conservative regardless of class and education. Everyone else has this shit figured out except for a few dumbass latinos who thought they were white and are QUICKLY realizing they're not
you don't have to ignore with whom the problem lies, you have to keep going.
that's not the end of the puzzle. that's not a solution. it's only anger and blame. demographics aren't a goal or an answer. they are a guidepost with which we can do further research.
pointing fingers does nothing. we need ACTIONABLE solutions. otherwise you're just spreading hate and division. the who is useful to figure out the how and why. but if you stop there all you're going to do is incite blood feuds.
