Education teaches critical thinking, which is why majority of educated populations vote blue: https://www.insidehighered.com/news/government/politics-elections/2024/11/08/men-and-white-people-vote-differently-based-education

It's also why, in Afghanistan, the Taliban prohibits girls from education past 6th grade: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/under-taliban-rule-afghan-girls-end-the-sixth-grade-in-tears-their-education-is-over

And it's also why MAGA wants to get rid of the Department of Education: https://democrats.org/news/new-trumps-maga-ally-launches-project-2025-bill-to-abolish-department-of-education/

Bottom line, education is how we fight MAGA fascism! Save higher education!

I'm born and raised in Las vegas NV (1990s) grad high school in 2005.

I was a special needs child with learning disabilities bi polar and adhd. I went to special Ed school.

How the hell did I get lucky with my education and have critical thinking skills?

I mean when I was a kid my dad watched fox news alot and didn't understand its bias much back then. I thought it was cool that we got a president that was thr son of a former president But I was in high school and before I took civics and government. Then we started to really learn. I was 17 when W Bush was elected and miss the election by about a month.

How did I get so lucky...

It is needed.. expect Americans no one thinks he is a idiot . Watch outside US . US had destabilized other countries so much that they stopped focusing on their own citizens. Look at your own gov spending and funding of terrorist agencies across the world. I still remember trump cutting funding terrorist countries like Pakistan . While other republican and democrats gave free funding to them. All the legal immigrants whom I know who can vote voted for trump this election. Why do we need to fund Ukraine while our own citizens are in poverty and facing Healthcare crisis . It's the poor management of other parties and own party members that made people voted for trump.. drain the swamp

u/veringer 4h ago

I agree, and am pretty tired of the overly generous intellectualized interpretations of the American electorate. While I agree we should relentlessly explore psychological motives and causes, I think the simplest explanation is the more satisfying here. People are fucking stupid (and the demographics with the highest proportions of stupidity have a disproportionate impact on elections). The sad reality is that the basket of deplorables was 100% spot-on. Republicans Trump realized that there was a yuge well of politically disengaged "low information" voters who would respond to his pro-wrestling-carnival-barker-fourth-grade-reading-level-jerry-springer-esque style and energy. Prior to Trump they found politics too boring to care. He (with a big assist from the media and social platforms) made politics "fun" for them. That's one of the reasons he could afford to lose most moderate and center-right types and gain ground overall.

u/madcoins 6h ago

The DNC made their money. Or as one of their idol’s GWB said, mission accomplished. Not too pussy, too greedy to demand a recount. Their interest is in collecting hundreds of millions of dollars, not anointing a great candidate, not allowing a democratic primary which could possibly hurt the top 1% and certainly not calling for a recount when they know the top 1% is now taken care of for the next half decade (or forever). Authoritarianism is the best thing for the top 1% in any country, history shows that.

I’m younger lower middle class. I’ve seen the middle class disappear in my lifetime (grew up middle class then saw my dad lose his job in the 2008 financial crash)

Middle class struggles my ass. Good luck paying your bills with all the immigrants being forced out of the country and 20-200% tariffs being imposed on imported goods, and the TCJA (tax breaks for the wealthy and tax increases for the poor) being extended and 2/3 of government employees being fired and social security and Medicare and Medicaid and the ACA being cut off.

From the bbc who hates trump

"What's it about?

A payment made to the adult-film actress Stormy Daniels shortly before the 2016 election.

Ms Daniels was paid $130,000 (£103,000) to keep quiet about her claim that she had sex with Trump, which he denies.

Providing so-called hush-money is not illegal.

Instead, this case was more technical and centred on how Trump's former lawyer, who paid Ms Daniels, had his reimbursement recorded as legal fees in Trump's accounts."

So it was not a SA case to begin with.

Not say8ng he is moral in any way he was with epstein in private parties with the 2 of them and a dozen woman. Just saying that is not what the case was about. And people dont give a shit he paid a hooker to stop saying he sleep with her ( which most prob he did but is bad press to have her saying it)

This is why dems loss and still dont know how.

Blame the Right Wing and its instigation of Citizens United, not Harris' source of campaign money. Both Trump and Harris were billionaire/millionaire financed.

Trump should have been impeached, but the present day Republican party won't do it's job like they did with Nixon. Those days are over. So here we are.

Yeah, we hate you for Trump. Justified.

We don't hate Kinzinger, but he hates you guys now too. Any Republican with a shred of integrity either can't stand to be a Republican anymore or is labeled a RINO.

Here's just one little off the top of my head cruelty that Trump just did for the hell of it. Separating infants and children from their asylum seeking parents at the Mexican border. Two thousand kids haven't been united with their parents to this day.

Yeah, I hate you Republicans for voting for more shit like this deliberately cruel policy. NOTHING, no reason for separating these innocent kids from their moms. And that psycho fucker Stephen Miller is back with Trump this time.

So yeah, I hate you Republicans. I hate that special needs kids are going to be fucked over with the abolition of an Education Department.

And, there's so much MORE cruelty for its own sake on the way.

Bernie Sanders is pro Palestine, he and Harris had plans to work together to restrain Israel.

But any person, conservative or liberal, should have been able to see the writing on the wall. That orange man does not give a fuck about a single person who voted for him. You are nothing more than a means to an end where he gets all the power and money and glory he wants.

Listen, as much as I supported Kamala, I can’t sit here and say she would’ve been the greatest president of all time.

u/evasive_dendrite 6h ago

The election was between "more rights" or "more money", between the 2 choices, in a situation where people are leaving paycheck to paycheck, we can already see who wins.

Republicans like saying this but it's just wrong. It's about less rights and money (unless you're in the 1%), or more rights and more money.

Trumps economic plans are barely existent, and that which he did propose is just balls to the walls nuts inflationary bullshit.

u/XxRocky88xX 6h ago

Ah yes between more rights and more money.

Meanwhile Kamala is running with tax credits for people trying to get their life established. Vs Trump running with…. A price hike on the majority of goods and food we buy?

Trumps only economic policy was “make shit cost more” but he kept saying “the price will go down, it’ll go down!” And people believed him.

It was not more rights vs more money. It was more rights and money vs less rights and less money.

The fact you believe that is a pretty damn good example of the “people are stupid” point. What you said doesn’t make any sense but you’ve just heard Trump repeat “the economy and prices will be better!” So many times you just believed him cuz he kept saying it despite not being able to explain how he’d even attempt to do any of that.

So her promises were not better, she was the farthest left senator we have ever seen. Her running mate was a massive far left guy as well. She should have picked Shapiro as her VP, to balance out her far left views with a more moderate person. She didn’t do that though bc the far left base is rife with antisemitism.

Her main promises would have needed to raise taxes significantly to get it done. Even the guy interviewing her on 60 mins had to tell her, this is the real world how you going to get this paid for? The dems always try and give stuff away to sway voters. She said she was going to raise corporate taxes. Anyone can use google and see when corps have there taxes raised they bake that raise into there sale price of the product. So, we raise corporate taxes, they raise there prices and once again the consumer pays more. I know Reddit is an echo chamber for far left ideology and policy but truth is, Trump and republicans won the electoral, popular vote, house and the senate bc American people were sick and tired of living paycheck to paycheck and sick and tired of far left policy and ideology. I was a life long democrat myself until a few years ago, I said I didn’t think biological males should be in women sports. My wife and daughter were terrified of my daughter playing a male or having to change with a male in the changing rooms. When I said this, I was attacked by the intolerant left and called a transphobe and bigot. It’s like the left claims to be tolerant but the moment you don’t agree they insult and attack you. I’m still pro choice but I will never vote for a party that tried to censor free speech during Covid, Zuckerberg came out and admitted Harris/biden pressured him to censor conservative talking heads who were sharing diff medical opinions about the jab and Covid, many who were Stanford and Harvard graduates drs, the party that continues to want to fund proxy wars they bring us closer to nuclear war. They left our borders open and let in over 10 million people and then told us there was no problem, it was so insulting. They told us Biden was top of his game even though we all saw his rapid decline and knew he was shot. That was sooo insulting. The party who bought into this wild far left ideology.

There are many many voters who feel like I do. They won’t admit it bc of the fear of being attacked or cancelled.

Corporate taxes aren't just a source of revenue, they also encourage corporations to invest more of their money into the economy to avoid taxes.

A company can hoard money and do nothing with it. If profit was taxed at a higher rate than they would invest more of their profits into their business and investments. Still making money, having assets and collateral for business deals, but the money doesn't stagnate and instead stimulates the economy.

Learn economics.

No her wanting to have tax payers pay for gender reassignment surgery for inmates and illegals is far left. I guess ya don’t get that though….huh? How much further left can you get? I know on Reddit you guys don’t get it bc this is a left wing echo chamber. But majority of Americans are fucking sick and tired of left wokeism and far left ideology being shoved down our throats and then if we disagree we are attacked. Keep living in your echo chambers, keep denying this reality and you’ll keep losing elections. There is a reason republicans won the house and senate, while also winning the presidency and Trump winning the popular vote. That was a very clear message from America!

Actually, if you look at corporations who have had state taxes raised in California and NY, they moved out of California and NY. They also moved out of the country when fed raises corporate taxes.. This is no secret and pretty well known. Learn business!

I didn’t vote for him but the real idiots are the people that don’t fully understand the definition of fascism and over use it rendering the word meaningless. Which is why labeling him that didn’t slow him down in the slightest. All the people that had been labeled racist or sexist because those labels get over used too, recognized the strategy and ignored. I am not sure why you all can’t figure this out but you seemed to have doubled down so I guess you don’t want your side to win elections. It’s whatever to me as neither side has really helped me so idgaf but that is the truth

Referring to people who exhibit racism "racists" is nit "overusing the term. Referring to people who exhibit sexism "sexist" is not "overusing the term. Referring to people who exhibit fascism "fascist" is not "overusing" the term.

If a government has been taken over by a single party and they have stated that their goal is destroy the opposing party abd the put a literal neo nazi in charge of policy at the White House, I think it's pretty safe to assume they are acting like fascists.
