Trump voters on tiktok are EXTREMELY mad about the following:
- They just found out what tariffs are
- They just found out what denaturalization is
- They (particularly black and Hispanic trump voters) just found out that other trump voters are racist
- Leftists and liberals don't want to be their friends (they are furious about this)
- Leftists keep telling them they hope they get what they voted for (they are really mad about this too)
The leopards eating faces party wouldn't eat MY face
#i understand the urge/desire to dunk on people for this#but i think we also really need to start reckoning that this fundamental lack of education and critical thinking#is all trickledown effects from shit like no child left behind and the consistent attacks on public education by the right over the last#idk what is it now twenty+ years#and it’s being aided and abetted by misinformation on social media and the lack of will to do anything about THAT#this is because three generations of americans haven’t learned civics economics or critical thinking#which like. contrary to leftist internet opinions#are not things you just Know Innately#and frankly also aren’t things online ‘leftists’ seem to know either but i digress#this is because the right has been actively supporting policies making our children dumber for decades#and like. that’s a bigger issue than dunking on people on social media can fix#so. can we maybe work on that
