I’m convinced that most online liberals have never had a conversation IRL with someone who voted for trump.
All my coworkers voted for trump despite the fact that I live in a deep blue state (purple locally). Why? Because the cost of living is out of control (and then brilliant biden gaslit everyone by saying this is the best economy ever… for whom?! maybe the coastal liberal elite work from home laptop class bubble but not the rest of us who punch in and out of work every day at blue collar jobs) and they don’t approve of the wars. They’re cool with minorities, gays, trans people. They’re not “deplorables.” A whole lot of them are swing voters - voted for Obama twice, voted for Bernie in the primary that the democrats fucked over, and then switched to trump. Some even voted for Hillary in 2016 despite the fucking over, biden and then trump. They’re actually the perfect people to swing back to the left if one uses the right language to persuade them. They hate that billionaires own everything and that we spend endless money on war but can’t feed the poor.
I’m originally from NY, outside the city. When I talk to my friends at home they live in a goddamn fucking bubble. I live in vermont and people here are far more politically independent than there.
One of my coworkers, who I consider a friend, is a 30 something straight woman who voted for trump. I asked her if she was worried about reproductive rights. She said no, she’s protected by Vermonts constitutional right to it. I asked her well what if that’s removed? She said she would regret her vote if that was the case. She doesn’t like trump but she hates how hard she’s been struggling under biden like ALL my coworkers. We had a nonbinary person at work (who has since left) and everybody treated them respectfully and used proper pronouns. Hell, they were better than me, I have no problem with gender diversity but I struggle to remember. And I’m a gender non conforming lesbian woman who uses she/her pronouns but I honest to god don’t give a fuck what people call me and when I get misgendered I think it’s funny.
Btw my state lost the highest number of democrat seats and when I talk to liberals online they’re like nuh uh we didn’t lose in a landslide I’m not listening! about as good of a strategy as fucking over the left.
Democrats and their vote blue no matter who! supporters would rather lose to a fascist TWICE than listen to the left, or the working class, or anyone outside their pretentious elitist bubble.
