If it makes anyone feel better, this country was always garbage.
We transitioned from slavery to Jim crow to undocumented immigrants as our intentional underclass to abuse for private profiteers we’ve always had.
We use our military to destabilize entire nations to further the economic interests of our profiteers.
Hell, we fucking loved and practiced eugenics prior to world war 2, and only entered the war after the war came to us and blew up our pacific fleet. That’s just fighting back.
Literally a nation built on a giant genocide graveyard.
I could write pages.
I’ll keep voting for least worst so I can look myself in the mirror as always, but the sad truth is, Garbage person Trump represents the United States Perfectly. He is a monument to all our sins, especially glorifying greed.
The US is still practicing eugenics. Ignoring COVID while supporting DeSantis style COVID control is eugenics.
I mean yeah, but I was referring more to the literal sterilization of supposed undesirables, which we did both prior to and even for some time after WW2 in some of the asylums/prisons of the time.
Finally an article calling it what it is. Racism and misogyny .
Racism, misogyny, broken political system from the 1700s, rampant corruption, billionaire-owned horserace-obsessed media wagging the dog, fascists being better at effective messaging than anyone else is at correcting the record, and the leadership of the other party yet again running a 1992 campaign in the 21st century.
And it proves that the racism is just as deep in the Democratic party. Millions of Democrat voters actively chose to stay home rather than vote for a black woman over Donald Trump. Millions of Latino men voted for a man who openly hates them rather than vote for a woman. They may not necessarily like Trump, but they actively chose to stay home and allow him to rise back to power instead of vote for a black woman.
They may not be as willing to be out in the open about it, but there are clearly some pretty damn racist Democrats out there.
I’ve seen plenty of Democrats openly blaming arabs and latinos for the loss of a party that had forsaken them completely. Definitely some racist Democrats out there
Welp
Misspelled “dismantle and sell” in the headline.
