Do you always swallow propaganda designed to target your anger against other poor people?
Just because someone is poor doesn't mean they're not a scumbag.
Source: I grew up poor, knew a lot of them.
Just because someone is poor and trapped in a country where there isn't a democracy doesn't mean they're a scumbag
voting for drumpf does indeed make one a scumbag.
Yes. I'm referring to the people who didn't vote or didn't vote for him.
Because one can say voting for Harris makes someone a scumbag
You've never had a bigot who is also poor get right up in their face with their hatred for people like you existing spilling out of them, have you?
Of course I have. I'm not saying Trump supporters are good people.
I'm saying that the reason Trump got elected is because we dont live in a democracy. You want to fix the issue? Blame the plutocrats and the election system. Dont blame the few voters who voted for Trump. There's not that many of them, and you're wasting your time on them.
Fix the democracy and you'll fix the issue.
Just to be clear, I am not, nor did I ever say that poor people are stupid. Stupid people have every range of income, as do smart people. Having or lacking money does not determine your intelligence level. Elon musk has a fuck-ton of money and is one of the dumbest people to ever live on Earth. Maga is a cult and only stupid people fall into it.
