New polling conducted by Somos Votantes and the Global Strategy Group between August 26 and September 4 shows that Trump’s net approval rating among Latino voters has dropped from -11 points in February to -23 points in September.
His favorability rating has seen a similar drop, from -12 points in February to -20 points in September.
So saying a group who voted for a bigot are bigoted is bigoted?
It wouldn’t be racist if you had said they were bigoted (Although I do think it would be wrong, I think the issue is more awareness and education than it is just innate bigotry. They obviously didn’t fully know what Trump was about, by definition, or they wouldn’t have voted for him.)
Since you said the whole grouping is hypocritical and lacks compassion, that’s the racist part. IDK how you can’t see that, but it seems like you’re just determined not to see it for whatever reason.
If you a vote for a bigoted asshole who campaigned on getting rid of trans and gay rights but suddenly feel screwed when he comes after you, you are by definition a hypocrite and lack compassion
Oh! So you weren’t talking about the whole religious Hispanic community. You were talking about the subset of it who saw through Trump’s performative embrace of the gay community and attempts to campaign on the exact opposite of what you said, were deeply aware of his actual actions on LGBTQ+ issues despite the fact that they’re not part of that community directly and none of their media ever talked about it, managed to ignore all the propaganda telling them that he valued family and economic issues which were much more directly important to them directly, and decided to vote for him knowing full well that he was going to go after a bunch of people they didn’t really have contact with even though nothing they ever did come into contact with ever reminded them of that reality. And specifically of course excluding from that grouping anyone who voted for him for some other reason, like that their families were struggling with groceries and their media was assuring them that he would fix it.
Yeah, fuck those guys. I thought somehow that instead of singling them out very specifically for their very specific actions and motives, you were painting the whole religious Hispanic community. I apologize for not reading more deeply into what you actually meant.
