@spiegelmama Well, maybe so. But they've been manipulated into becoming useful fools, by those who directly benefit from that (Republicans and their extremely wealthy backers).
I am, at this point, not very sympathetic to those who are still defined by hating "the Democrats".
Either way, it's interesting that there isn't any equivalent on the right. Why not?
@spiegelmama Like, there are lots of West Virginians who live in ex-coal country who have generational bitterness over the fact that politicians have betrayed them.
They've got the same level of bitterness or even more. And they KNOW neither side is going to help them.
But this just makes them even more committed to always voting Republican. At least that way, the politicians won't do anything to help black people.
@isaackuo Sometimes people create their own hell. And when they do so just to take other people down with them, it takes a better person than I am to not believe they deserve it. This makes me a not-very-nice person, I know, and it's not productive. Someone else is going to have to help people like that.
