Anyone who supported Trump in 2024 has a broken brain. Waking up just because he happens to specifically be racist again you is just…I don’t even know what say.
To bad, so sad…fuck off?
You're shocked the most openly racist president since Andrew Johnson hates Somalis, people from Africa?
Everyone needs to be called out by name for them to understand, I guess. Put two and two fucking together, America.

Any black person supporting an outspoken racist like Trump is just fucking stupid.
Straight up. He’d already been openly racist, specifically against Somalis….and everyone fucking else.
At this point we should just admit we fucked up…conservatives are an incurable cancer, and just nuke the fucking thing from orbit. I have no hope when people are this stupid.
I know a gay Trump supporter. He's ecstatic about what's going on and I know I have better people to give a shit about if he ever gets hauled away.
This doesn’t surprise me.
I got a job as a chef at a queer piano bar a few years back. Up until that point I had kind of put gay people on a pedestal…like…I thought all the adversity made them innately virtuous.
But while working there I had the stupidest revelation I’ve ever had: Queer people are, in fact, exactly like other people. What I mean by that is my big eureka was that some gay people that are terrible people, some are great people, and every shade in between. Some of the most openly transphobic people I’ve met, for example, are from the gay community.
This person is a family friend who I've, unfortunately, heard talk about his life. His family is incredibly toxic and he just normalized it. About two years ago, I heard him ranting about how Metrosexuals ruined his gaydar and I told him I hadn't heard anyone use that word in over ten years. He also hates lesbians, but trans people haven't come up. I doubt he cares for them.
Oh yeah…in my experience gay men can be very mean to lesbians. I had a drag king dishwasher who was continuously sexually harassed by staff and customers…they said vile things to her on the daily. Some refused to call her by her “stage” name…despite having no problem with drag queens.
Why the racist comment?
Any person supporting Trump is just fucking stupid.
I don’t think it’s racist to point out that someone who is a member of a group that Trump has been explicitly racist against is extra dumb for supporting them. I don’t think anyone should support the guy but I only oppose him out of a sense of empathy and sympathy. This guy is extra dumb because he shouldn’t be a supporter out of sheer self interest.
because anybody non-white was obviously being targeted
It's now literal US government policy that if you talk about "Equality" you will be fired by the government.
There's a word for somebody that doesn't support equality of rights: its a segregationist.
Well, I wouldn't directly call it racist. It would have been the same if the Orange would have promised to sell Alaska back to the Russians and an Alaskan still voted for him.
Or a person who likes democracy and freedom voted...oh well..shit..I show myself out.
His comments on Haitians weren’t a clear enough signal? JFC, you dense assholes.
This person believes that Americans are a very wise and fair people who can see that Somalis are nothing like Haitians and no way would Americans just consider them both to be scary foreign black people. This is pretty much how all naive immigrants view the USA before they get a rude awakening.
Edit: Nevermind this person was here since 2009? They're just a shill who was paid to trick his own people into voting for their tormentors.
He literally did similar comments DURING HIS FIRST TERM about Somalis as well.... But...people have the attention span of a TikTok Video these days.
“How could anyone have predicted this?!?”
The minorities who supported Trump need to be studied as the most fucking stupid, lacking any self preservation whatsoever, people to have ever lived.
The fact these people ever made it to voting age without forgetting how to breathe, or running to an electrical socket with a fork is nothing short of a reality breaking anomaly.
They think "Now that my family and I got in, let's pull the ladder and fuck the rest. As long as I am good, others can fucking die."
I.e. garbage people.
"Why, I didn't think the Nazis would round me up, the people who helped them!"
"They're not going to eaty MY face."
I have a very hard time feeling sympathy for a bunch of people who voted against their own best interests. Anyone who didn't see this coming, needs to wake the fuck up, and start paying attention. It's not like he was hiding who he was. Anyone with half a brain should have been able to see this coming all the way back to when Obama was still in office.
Not defending the idiots, but I think social media played a far significant role in brainwashing people than we realise. The stupid social media algorithms corral them to seeing only certain contents and distort their world view. I wonder what social media showed to the non-white people to even support Trump. I hava poc colleagues who seemed to trivialise and have casual approach to Trump, with one stating "some of the things he says makes sense." I wonder what those things "makes sense" from poc point of view. Even before Trump 2.0 came, I have disliked him for being fascist-adjacent. Now, that the mask is off, people thought that he'd stay with his far-right adjacent policies in his first term, and they lived to regret fucking around and finding out.
sounds like you are defending them. it wasn't as if Trump was being coy about it. He created a muslim ban. He said "They are eating the pets."
All this stuff he said in public, live on TV. Using social media as a source of news just shows you are dumb.

The number of people of tuning in to TV are decreasing as time goes. Social media is the new source of information, which sounds paradoxical because you aren't getting news if the information is curated and corralled depending on your browsing activity. And dismissing the role of social media sounds exactly like what I said in my initial comment that people underestimate its role in polarisation.
if a lot of people started voting by flipping a coin the fact a lot of people do it doesn't change that it's a dumb process.
I am not saying social media isn't used. i am saying that isn't an excuse for saying "we didn't know we were shooting ourselves in the foot." Watch the debates, watch the press confrences, listen to him live whenever he speaks. Trump doesn't hide his hatred for minorities and foreigners. If you go on social media and are told different then you deserve what you get.
Tell that to people, not to me. And there is a reason as to why there is a push to regulate social media precisely because of algorithms sheep-herding people.
People are already inundated and tired by the hecticness of modern life. They have to think about rent, or mortgage, putting food on the table, and their bills, and their family. They don't have time to do the necessary research. This fact is exploited by powers-that-be and the more tired a person is, the more susceptible they are to psychological manipulation. They go home tired and want to unwind by scrolling he social media or watch TV to kill time. They are tired, they don't have time to do due research, and they are easily manipulated. The people are merely exploited. While yes, people deserve what they get for voting against their interest, they are exploited. Would you lay blame squarely to trafficked immigrants who agreed to work undocumented and paid less than the minimum wage because of their predicament, despite already being well known that undocumented work never turns out well?
This is true Leopards Ate My Face material. Anyone who supported Donny 2 Inches, and helped him gain power, CANNOT be hurt enough !
Absolute fucking idiots. I used to live near Dearborn and a lot of the more conservative segments of the Muslim community gave me similar vibes. How dumb can you be? Kicking your asses out, at best, is the selling point of the candidate you're voting for?? Okay....
I find minorities and women who support Trump generally are not only some of the dumbest fucking people you'll ever meet in your life, but also very often narcissistic and mentally/emotionally unstable.
Virtually all of them are mentally and often physically abusive to people around them, and they're constantly trying to control every situation they're in, even if they have no business nor authority doing so.
Trump is exactly that, so most see themselves in Trump.
It's usually becase of their stand on gay/trans issues.
Apparently what other people do with thier genitals is top of mind for many "conservatives".
You knew he was a snake when you picked him up.
Coming next: Person buys bottled water. Is surprised to find water inside.
I think we need to understand the rational reasons immigrants that are entering as a minority into this country might adopt rightwing/conservative beliefs.
Inequality, colonialism as a tactic to police the behavior of populations, fascism and hate REQUIRE the even more vulnerable to be turned against the vulnerable or else it all falls apart.
What the specific levers that are that are used to get immigrants to vote against their own interests whether it be fear, manipulation, lies or threats is less interesting than the fact that this entire structure of oppression can be shattered by simple, meaningful unjudgemental solidarity with one another as average human beings who want the same basic things.

Your following paragraphs don't really explain what the rational reasoning is, just that it's required. What are they?

Ahahahaha fucking garbage people.
Yes, if you voted for a rapist, you are 100% garbage.
I for one am shocked that the dude that proclaimed “They’re eating the dogs!” during a presidential debate would make harsh racist remarks.
✨ Have the day you voted for ✨
he declared, “I don’t want [Somalis] in our country.”
The following day brought even stronger remarks, as he added, “The Somalians [sic] should be out of here. They’ve destroyed our country.”
Hearing these words—offered with no proof—has been jarring for people like Fiqy, who once believed the Republican Party could build a real partnership with Somali Minnesotans.
“That sort of language is dehumanizing and deeply hurtful,” Fiqy said, reflecting on the shock and disappointment within his community.
You got played by propaganda.
Hard to call it propaganda when so many red flags had to be intentionally ignored to justify voting for them even if there was one stance you liked about them. Its why you heard so much gas lighting from supporters of its just a joke. You are over reacting. You are just a doomer. TDS.
They knew all the negatives about him. Its why they put so much effort into downplaying it.
No. They just either stupid or fucking garbage. These people usually think, now that I got in and I have it good, let's close the borders and fuck everyone else.
Anyone with even the smallest amount of intelligence could see what Trump really is - a racist rapist idiot.
It actually blows my mind how these people didn't realise that. There were like a million opportunities to see through Trump's bullshit. Basically every time he opens his mouth.
Morons.
you're coming a long long way, fiqy. seriously!
If only he had neurons or something and could think before acting
Oh well
Ironically, these (the ones who voted for Trump) are the very Somalis that actually ARE garbage people.
