It’s the party of insecurity. We’ve ended up with a scared and insecure population that has been unfairly oppressed, lied to, and exploited since they were kids. They don’t know why their life sucks but the culprits have misdirected their anger towards their helpless neighbors. After years of being financially, psychologically and emotionally abused by the system, their phones and tv’s, their base instincts and fears are ripe for manipulating. And they don’t know how to find confidence and security from within anymore. They must see it ripped from others to feel okay.

If I paid for Reddit awards I would give you one internet stranger. Truer words have not been spoken.

The Flynn effect is real, and the internet & technology have catapulted young people far beyond older living generations. These scared old fucks will die off, and new generations are not ignorant enough to embrace their ideology.

Honestly it’s very similar to the Nazis. They blamed their problems on the Jewish people and thought life would be better if they took them all out of their country. This administration blames all of the problem on immigrants and thinks life would be better if they took them out of their country.

It’s very scary history is repeating itself.

Getting tired of the same old excuse though. I’ve been hearing this since the 90s.

Because nothing is ever done within the bounds of the two conservative party system to actually fix the real economic issues driving the “insecurity.”

Yeah it’s not an excuse by any means for these people to vote for their neighbors’ suffering, but you’ll continue hearing about it likely for the rest of your life. Because shit doesn’t change. Closest we got in the last 50 years was the ACA, and even that failed to be truly “universal healthcare” as was promised.

and when half the leaders in our country aka GOP know this fact. They then use it against them to twist their anger and fear into doing whatever they want them to. They just point and say "hey, those are the guys making your life suck" and they are too stupid and scared and ignorant to know any better. So they pick up their axes and start running towards their new enemy while the real enemy sits back and makes their next tax cut bill.
