This is some of that bizarre, black-and-white thinking I've come to expect from Lemmy (and, of course, reddit). I can assure you that there are a lot of "normal Americans" who do not "already know this".
I'm not the OP. But I'm a bit jaded as well. I come from a family of Trump voters. And moved to a very liberal city after leaving home. So most of the people I know fall into the two camps. The people who do not are few. But my sample is biased of course.
I feel like too many of the people here really do need to touch grass. Idk if it's the high number of people in tech work or something else but I see so many takes of what "normal" people that's so far off the mark it makes me question when was the last time they spoke to an actual person.
If by "actual person," you mean Trump voter, I'm afraid our definitions of people might be different.
