I believe the two reasons maga gained popularity among the average American are both from fear/hate of people from other cultures(brown folks), as the country I know is still heavily segregated by zip code in most places. And, what really worked well, because anyone can participate, the fear/hate of trans and other lgbtq folks.
The democrats, I’m convinced today are in fact controlled opposition. Who thought pushing… forcing language like latinx without popular support from the people the name it represents? It was shoved in folks faces, and they were told to support it or they were a bad person. You can’t do that without extensive discussion and then having popular support to change it. Niether were done.
The same thing is happening with trans people in sports. There wasn’t any discussion about it before it was allowed, no one was prepared. Then, suddenly, people who have never met a trans person in their life, started seeing news headlines about it. There are born women, who are uncomfortable with this, whether or not they are anti trans or an ally, it doesn’t matter, because I guarantee you both exist, and they say they are uncomfortable with it. It was another decision that was made without disscussion from the group they represent. Why don’t afab women’s voices matter in this case? Again, now this pro trans group is telling you are a bad person for not wanting transfolk in sports, even just questioning it, even if otherwise you’d be an ally.
Dem’s pushed this stuff, without giving time for culural shift and discussion and imput from the people it would affect, and to make it worse if you voiced an opinion or question it online, even in an honest way, you would be instantly dogpiled and flamed.
I think every republican ad I saw up to the election mentioned trans people. There are tons of folks who have never met a trans person, have no idea what the process is like, leaving a lot of room for imagination. They went hard with the fear in those advertisements, they did a great job in working a mountain out of a molehill. Add in that everyone now has the internet in our pocket, some isolated communities are being exposed to things they otherwise wouldn’t have ever seen, driving the fear of the unknown.
Disclaimer I’m pro doing whatever you like for yourself, so long as it hurts no one else, and respects the people around you. Just know it’s stated. I tend to think in terms of sociology, and this is simply my observation.
I don’t think hobbes here has any integrity with this comment I’ve responded to, but I do think I’ve a small grasp on how they got there.
Also, anyone truly convicted of pedophilia shoud spend the rest of thier life in agony. They should not be granted death unless it’s from their victims wishes, and they should live in agony for as long as they breathe. I don’t care what faction you represent, messing with children is the lowest crime anyone can do and is not punished harshly enough.
