    I mean, literally none of these issues existed until Trump created them and if people can’t see that then there just isn’t much hope.

    Maybe when the perfectly healthy at transition social security system collapses within 6 months of Trump taking office, people will wake up.

      So let’s take the renouned intellectual Joe Rogan as an example.

      Earlier on he said “why are we picking on Canada”, and now he’s switched his tune to “I won’t go to Canada”. Because when they get pushback it doesn’t feel nice, and they side with their own because that’s easier and that’s what the propaganda machines are pushing.

      This is example of how not only will not they wake up, their attitudes will continue to worsen. Right now white Democrats are thinking “oh phew, they aren’t coming for us right now, we are safe” even if they don’t admit it to even themselves.

      I know this because this was me, when the targets were Muslims and Mexicans and Haitians what did I do besides fret my brow and say “golly gee that’s too bad” but didn’t do anything. The difference is that now Canadians are getting lumped in with the bad guys now and holy shit does it look a lot different when the barrel is pointed at you.

      Sorry this is a long rant and not entirely directed at you.
