You're trying to tell me that half of all American voters all are hateful morons?

[-] waterwasamistake@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 day ago

Voterparticipation was 64% So more like 30%.

People can be hateful AND other things. They aren't raging monsters but for one reason or another when making one of the most important desicions they let themselves be guided by hate, doesn't mean they don't love their dog or hug their kids.

You slso don't need to put all the blame on them, propaganda is a powerful tool,they might very well have turned out fairly decent without it. They aren't born like that but it doesn't change what they have become.

If these people are so easily fooled, why cant we trick them into being really nice?

I'd say hateful AND/OR morons. Some are just hateful. Some are just morons. Some are both.

And it wouldn't be the first time in history a massive segment of a population was and/or. Propaganda and shitty culture are a hell of a drug.

I mean the proof is in the pudding. Half of voting Americans voted for a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, lifelong conman, and probable pedophile who instigated an insurrection and utterly failed at his previous term as president. What else would you consider them other than hateful and/or morons?

Desperate and/or neglected.

No I'd say it's most of the voters, but yeah a solid half the full population sounds about accurate.
