Doesn’t he know that his most loyal followers are racist? That’s a demographic awareness issue on his part.

Based on his Hannibal Lecter comments, I think he's more afraid of losing the mass murderer demographic.

That is absolutely a possibility, considering how that man’s brain works.

[-] tsonfeir@lemm.ee 9 points 6 months ago

I imagine his brain works like paparazzi photos. Pop pop flash flash, blinding light, screaming, pop pop!

That’s the Provigil working.

They don't care. They are lazy cowards who will give up everyone's rights for a false sense of safety. Trump can say whatever he wants because they don't take anything he says seriously. The more active among them are convinced that Trump is a "tool" to get what they want. Little do they know they are the ones being used.

Thats how it is for most of humanity, from Hitler, through Putin, to Trump, same playbook to appeal to the 80%

“Susan Sontag was asked what she had learned from the Holocaust, and she said that 10% of any population is cruel, no matter what, and that 10% is merciful, no matter what, and that the remaining 80% could be moved in either direction” —Kurt Vonnegut

They hate women more than they hate black people

Yes, 55 Percent of White Women Voted for Trump. No, I’m Not Surprised.

It’s time to stop coddling white women when they bolster white supremacy, and to push for concrete acts of solidarity

OJ Simpson isn’t black. He’s a white black man. He’s the black guy the white people love. He’s not a N… if you catch my drift.

Apparently playing football and murdering your wife is the key to the racist heart.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
