If they are ignorant of who Trump is, they are willfully so. They kinda WANT to be conned, because the conman is telling them what they wanted to hear all along.

I agree. What doesn’t make sense is they are educated people. They do live in a southern red state which is part of it. I left after HS. I always knew I was different & cringed at every racist remark I heard. My mom wasn’t racist so we were raised right. But everyone around us def were. It’s sad.

I see it at work. Some people can be educated and intelligent but totally ignorant when it comes to politics or government. One girl made a comment that it’s good they are rounding up all the criminal immigrants. I said yeah, we don’t need no food. Fuck a bunch of food. Then I laughed.

I was debating about what’s going on with a very successful 40 yr old guy who is barely a friend these days. After he was contrarian to everything I said he admitted “I don’t read the news. I don’t really know what’s going on.” I wanted to scream.

Yes, it’s crazy. You don’t need a permit to own a gun or vote. Look where we are at.

arrogant entitled white male who looks at headlines and listens to the other white guys at the golf club ….so he thinks he can debate me over the actual end of democracy with a holocaust underway. It’s insulting. It’s also Dunning Kruger. Since he’s successful he thinks his opinions matter.

Men like that always do. I read an interesting book a while back called “The Confidence Code”. By Katty Kay & Claire Shipmen. It talks about why men have overblown confidence. Ex: Men will apply for a job with little experience while women won’t apply if they aren’t experienced in every aspect.

Privilege often comes with a compulsion to defend the status quo... even if you have no idea what it is.

And at that point you have to ask, is it because you’re a woman? That plays into it as well.

Guaranteed, but don’t we always factor that in subconsciously or explicitly?

I’m 20 yrs his senior and he respects me i know that. he does ask me questions. But one night he was interrupting me to the point that I put my finger to my lips and said “Shush!” 😆 Like a school marm! But he was loud and talking over me so yeah doubt he’d do that if I had balls.
