    Attacking the right is exactly what the people in power want. You don’t even have to admit you were wrong. Let’s agree that people on the right are otherwise good people that have been manipulated by the media to hate another group of people.

      Why did you vote for Trump? ‘’ a group of Mexican men tried to kidnap and rape and kill me. People say I’m lying because I got away, but I saw 4 Mexicans in a van and they were looking at ME!‘’

      This isn’t a delirious fever dream I had, this is a word for word conversation I had two days ago.

      They voted for the racism. They are happy Trump is hurting all the right people.

      Pretending they aren’t explicit ABOUT the racism is completely divorced from reality. I’m sorry you think kid gloves are going to solve this problem. But the problem isn’t liberals are just too darn mean. The problem has been, and continues to be, the deeply ingrained racism in American culture. This same person. In the same conservation. Said they voted for Obama. Because he was black. And they thought because they did that, racism is over. And now the fucking wet backs need to be round up and eliminated so they don’t rape and kill all the white women.

      No good person is manipulated to hate another group. By default if you can be manipulated to hate a group you’re not a good person.

        I guess I’m not a good person. I hate propagandists, I hate Republican “representatives,” I hate billionaires, I hate billionaires, and I also hate billionaires, mostly because they buy the “representation” that I hate and they buy the propagandists that I hate. Did I mention I hate billionaires too?
