Psychopathic, how can a politician like this have any popular support

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (3 children)

The people who support him don't know he said this.. They literally don't know shit about these people and only watch Fox news which wont air this

Yeah, no, they know, whats why they like him

Do you think its some sort of fluke so many fash adjacent politicians are popping up more and more?

I'm reminded of their support for that random Democrat from Hawaii. Turns out she was anti gay and pro intervention.

Tulsi Gabbard is actually a member of a fringe cult that schismed of off the Hare Krishnas, she and her weird cultist dad have switched parties a few times to try to maneuver themselves into positions of political power to advance the cults material interests and ideology. They're super anti-LGBT and anti-Muslim.

She's also an intelligence officer in the US military.

An incredibly untrustworthy person.

Dunno why you're getting downvoted, you're 100% correct.

Most people aren't on social media talking politics or thinking about any of this outside what they might overhear at church, from family/friends, on TV, shared on Facebook.

Yah the people I know haven't even read a single thing about the "don't say gay" bill nor have they even read 1 thing about the Trump documents. They call it a political hit job and I ask them about the specifics of the documents that were IN HIS BATHROOM and they legit hadn't heard any of it lol. It's because the media they consume actively avoid its.

I'd argue that MOST of these whackos are so disconnected from reality because all they listen to is pod casts and watch fox news. They don't read articles written by actual journalists with sources.
