Not all Republican voters are racist. I think of it more like a “Spin the wheel” of different types of bigotry (racist, homophobic, nationalist, transphobic, sexist, religious prejudice, the list goes on), which of course has a large section of “2 extra spins” for them to land upon.
Not all Republicans are racist, but all of them don't think racism is a disqualifying factor. Which makes them just as bad.
If you're ok with a racist as president, you're racist.
Yep, if you are okay with racism/sexism/homophobia/transphobia/queerphobia/etc, you are racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic/queerphobic/etc. No excuses for these people
Couldn't agree more. Honestly it's absurd, in the US we've always had the worst racists act agahst and demand they aren't racist after vile racist acts, their bar for what qualifies as racism is usual several steps past murder one.
If there are 12 people eating dinner and laughing with a racist there are 13 racists on the table.
Hey, I'll add another one: being forced to by your family
I've had my parents strongly tell me who to not vote. Bullshit like "We aren't telling you who to vote. You're an adult, and I believe you can make the decision yourself. I am only telling you not to vote Korčok, because that would be stupid. But I believe you aren't that stupid."
But hey, my father was also annoyed for me going there on my own, rather than with my mother at once (he didn't vote), because we're a family and must go everywhere together.
Sigh
If there's any Slovakian reading this, yeah, I voted for Korčok.
Is there any way they would know who you voted for if you went together? It's all pretty private in the US.
Nah. The voting is anonymous. I mean, the envelope including its contents has no unique information. If someone wanted to figure out who it belonged to, they'd probably have to resort to fingerprints.
Although, if you do scribble on something else, someone who's counting the votes may take a picture of the ballot:
"I choose (vote) you, Pikachu!"
Not all Republicans are pedophiles either
However, the list is very long
Over the last few decades the GOP gradually dropped any pretense of morality taking the easiest path possible for coalition building: assembling the stupid, bigoted, gullible and conspiratorial, the least empathetic, the overworked and underinformed. They left conservative ideology back in the 80s and have won only by preying on these people’s weaknesses.
Until this year however, they managed to have enough 'adults in the room' to keep big business on their side so you gotta think big business this week is shitting their pants with the realization that the base has now fully overrun the party.
It's not quite that.
The dixiecrats took over, the ones who are still enraged we took away Jim crow.
They have given the GOP a rabid base of racists who will support any economics because they don't know what the word means.
trump i notice likes to look at half-naked photos of poser leaders like putin. I suspect most of Republican are closet.
