    If only people could have seen this coming, especially the farmers who dealt with the same shit last time they elected Trump.

    Sucks to suck.

    If only they knew it was their own votes that bent them over the barrel.

    Common clay and all that. Morons.

      I think ‘morons’, while technically accurate is missing the nuance that conservative media deserts are where these voters live. They’re not on Lemmy, they’re not even on reddit. They’re on facebook and they watch Fox News. Their local paper is written by and for others who watch Fox News. That’s “the world” afatk.

      The Left has zero plan to combat this, and even less money and interest in doing so.
