      You need to be smart to get away with it, but for some reason you believe every single blue collar worker that voted for Trump is simultaneously a fucking idiot and also a criminal mastermind.

      The fascist other - it’s the only way to describe it. The enemy is both strong and weak.

            No, you’re trying to paint me into a corner that doesn’t exist. Dumb people lie and steal and get away with it all the time. Intelligence has nothing to do with it. And yes, plenty of smart people do too. You’re conflating two things that have nothing to do with each other. You could be claiming that im framing maga supporters as tall and short at the same time and it would make just as much sense.

              The enemy is both weak and strong, if you are unaware why this is fascist ideology I heavily suggest reading into it.

                I never said they are both weak and strong, everybody learns that shit in high school when they read 1984. It just does not apply to this conversation.

                  No, those 77 million people are not all like this cop.

                  You can call them stupid, and you’d be right - but there are plenty of well meaning idiots in MAGA. That doesn’t change the fact that they should all be worked like dogs until they pay everyone they’ve fucked over - but they aren’t all like this guy. Many of them are just incredibly stupid.

                  This is the comment you replied to. If you don’t understand how you fell into fascist ideology by trying to say (and I’m paraphrasing) ‘no you’re wrong’ to this, using the arguments you’ve made 100% falls into ‘the enemy is both weak and strong’ category.

                  And no, idiots do not get away with fraud - rich people do. There is a distinct difference between the two, and if you don’t understand that then you shouldn’t be weighing in on the topic.

                  Like everyone else that responded to me about this.

                    idk you think im saying theyre all dumb, im not, that’s a strawman you invented in your comment you just cited. they are in fact bad people, sorry if youre girlfriend is maga or something. adn there’s plenty of stupid people who are good people and that’s why they didn’t vote for trump. you don’t have to be smart to not supprt a child rapist. and yes plenty of rich people are idiots, again you’re conflating things that have nothing to do with each other.
