friends look at the Hispanic vote

once again.

@lovelylovely

Last night as part of the reporting for our polling station, the write in ballots included:

• Jill Stein
• FREE PALESTINE
• Mitt Romney
• Donald Duck

When the jackbooted brownshirts ramp up their gleeful curb stomping, people like the above who scribbled in those phrases are going to targeted first.

@mckra1g @lovelylovely

They certainly deserve to be, but it's more likely that Hispanics will be the first up against the wall.

@mckra1g @lovelylovely
It costs $106k/yr to live decently in a single-family home.

The median income in America is $37,585.

People are suffering. Suffering people vote stupid.

Both parties spent 4 decades making the economy like this.

Instead of getting mad at the people who made the economy like this, you want to get mad at their victims. Cool. Got it.

I expressed no anger. I relayed fact. Got it? Any inference was made on your part.

@mckra1g @lovelylovely
I wasn't accusing you of expressing anger.

Protest votes did not make a difference in this election. Look at the actual numbers. Please stop blaming the wrong people for what happened.

@lovelylovely It’s incredible to me that Latino men would vote Trump. Just…absolutely incredulous.

@drahardja @lovelylovely
Most of them (us) try very hard to identify as White, and what is more self-affirming of Whiteness than voting for Trump?

@Okanogen @drahardja @lovelylovely They (whoever they are) always forget to ask if they actually considered to be white by their chosen leader.

@drahardja @lovelylovely When they and their friends and family are rounded-up and sent to internment camps and possibly deported, then maybe they'll see the error of their decisions.

@drahardja even though this makes me angry but as a Brazilian it doesn't surprise me at all. The problem with these minorities is that they feel particular "better" than the others. It is very normal to see foreigners abroad complaining about their compatriots. It is like „they are all lazy, only I am different“. Thing is that social and racial prejudice is present in the global south too. It is maybe a coping mechanism, feeling of superiority. I don't have another explanation. @lovelylovely

@drahardja

I think abortion was a big motivator, bc of religion, for many in that demographic.

@lovelylovely

@lovelylovely
The graphic gives the proportion of the voting population of genders and ethnicities, but I wonder if any of those demographics have particularly poor turnout compared to the others as well.

Anyways, I'm going to try to reserve my anger for the 35% of eligible voters that didn't even bother voting. Maybe the next few years will teach them to start caring.

@lovelylovely
Because they are all stupid with little dicks and have to try to control people because of it ..
Just like the short cop syndrome.

@palin@mastodon.social @lovelylovely@masto.ai "Petite Fidel" I've heard it called. Common among Cuban men. And yes, I've seen their dicks described with a pinky.

@lovelylovely

I don't doubt the graph, but what is your source pls?

@HistoPol Simon Rosenberg and media.

all have reported it.

@lovelylovely What I see is that white people make up 71% of voters. So that's the main demographic to blame, if we want to play this game.

@TFFPrisoner

Totally.

52% of WW voted for Trump again, We have no allies

@TFFPrisoner @lovelylovely

White people suck.

I would say I can’t freaking believe Pa went SO RED but I saw the commercials. Not to mention the number of yard signs.

Republicans lied blatantly in their campaign ads and there was no push back. Low information voters, after depending on FOX for “news,” believed every word like it was the Gospel Truth.

I’d say I can’t believe it but I *know* some of these people.

@lovelylovely i’m disappointed at latino men. the machismo hurts us too much and we’re too ignorant to see it.

@lovelylovely I don't understand enough of the American race situation to make a meaningful comment on the distribution but I do know maths. If about 5% of whites switched from blue to red, red gets the most votes, 'cause it was 47-51 right? 5%, how hard can it be to find five percent more sane people in that group?

@StijnVH @lovelylovely
It was not only white people who voted for him. They count too.

@StijnVH sanity isn’t the issue. They hate women.

@StijnVH @lovelylovely
Not Quite. Trump got similar support in terms of absolute voters. It's more a case of 10% who voted for Biden didn't vote at all this year. Some of that will have been their decision, but some will be down to voter suppresion.
