          For real. ~45% of them deserve to be round up into camps or deported. That’s what they voted for, after all.

            *the monkeys paw curls

            45% of the Latino population in the us that voted for Harris are deported. Or they just somehow sink Puerto Rico.

        It blows my mind. But it’s the reality. In an ideal world every minority should be against Trump. But this isn’t the world we live in. There is a huge amount of immigrants who are coming from ultra conservative society.

        Some latino who are well established will happily kick the ladder so that other can’t come in.

        So it’s not super surprising. Homophobia and racism isn’t only a white people’s thing.

        This is sort of beside the point you’re making, but a lot of 1st/2nd generation Latinos still look down on immigrants. “We did it the hard way, so they should have to as well” similar to bootstrap mentality.

        It’s some real mental gymnastics, but I’ve had several latina girlfriends over the years and some of their families were poor or super well off, but they openly hated Mexicans and/or Puerto Ricans.

        That number isn’t really that surprising.

          Aaaah Cuban expats. Welcomed with open arms often getting to jump the line. So much hardship. So much effort. So much privilege and entitlement.

        There’s a lot of christian fundamentalists among them too, and I think the “sitting out of it” could have affected that demographic too.

        Well technically I don’t think you can vote to deport yourself since you need to be a citizen to vote federally.

        Now voting to have your friends and family removed, now we’re cooking!

      A guy at work today said he wasn’t worried about prop 3 failing because he has a medical Marijuana card. Like, dude, you’re a brown man on a list of Marijuana consumers and the modern day nazis just got elected and now wield the fbi and DEA with no guardrails. He’s fucked and he refuses to see it.

      I will note at the rate things are going Trump has like a 85% chance of beating his 2020 numbers and a small chance of beating Biden’s 2020 numbers. It’s not JUST Harris poor turnout.

      (Also her turnout was only bad by 2020 standards, it’s still higher than John Kerry or Gore or Hillary)

      Blame everyone but Harris huh?

      She, along with Hillary, never once bothered to try getting Stein voters to switch to her. It was both their downfalls. Trump did all he could to get RFK voters to switch to him.
