Union Member says most of his friends in the union voted for Republicans. Bothsiders, can you guess why?

So it’s just to cosplay online? No actual action?

I read an article before the election about a (white) Trump voter in Wyoming that acknowledged Trump's proposed tariffs would hurt his business, but he doesn't care about that as long as Trump deports all illegal immigrants and bans abortion.


This is something that many "progressives" fail to realize when they think that Trumpers can be "won back" with "class struggle" rhetoric. Many White Trumpers would rather DIE or be completely BROKE as long as people they don't like (Black people and other minorities) are also suffering/disadvantaged.


They're not worried about the rich & powerful ripping them off. They're worried about "n*ggers, sp*cs, feminists and trannies"

The far left on here doesn’t believe this. They think kamala was too “center”. That’s why she lost in their minds.

Got an uncle who is a leader in the big union he been with for 20 to 25 years. Ironworkers. He's one of the only black people in his group. He told me most of the white people in his union were going to vote for Biden over Trump even after the awful debate. But once Biden dropped out and it was clear Harris was the nominee, they gathered around and he overheard 15 to 20 of them in a circle say "I guess we gotta go with Trump now."

“Bbbbbut Kamala didn’t support Palestine! That’s why she lost!!”

Biden just did everything possible to support Unions for 4 years, but they still on Republicans dikk.

Exactly…Teamsters endorsing Trump after Kamala Harris was tie breaking vote to save their pension was/still is insane

People will give you a hundred different reasons why working class whites persistently vote against their own self interests. Economic anxiety, wokism, feeling left behind by liberal coastal elites etc. But if you talk to any white person whose real they'll tell you flat out and that many of them are just racist and misogynist. It mainly boils down to that. The moment after the Civil Rights act was passed and the Southern Strategy, Democrats became the 'black' party in the eyes of many white people. And its been a trans generational struggle to strip away our political power ever since.

Years ago I spoke to an older white guy at a Bernie rally once and he said his whole family were die hard Trump supporters. My naive mind tried come up with reasons why Trump would appeal to them. He just flat out said his family is full of racists and hates black people. However much you think racism plays a factor in white America's voting patterns, I guarantee you its much much much much worse than you can imagine. A lot of white people truly despise us and anyone who is non-white. Even the ones who you think are frendly hold shocking opinions of black people behind closed doors. It comes from a sense of racial superiority, entitlement and a deeply rooted insecurity when anything contradicts both.

This country is the way it is because most white people cannot accept the fact we're a mutiracial democracy and it may mean their tax dollars going towards healthcare and social programs that also help black people. I cannot understand this level of malice but a lot whites are in a state of severe mental delusion and illness. But they have been socially programmed for centuries to be this way.

It’s funny how black people have been around white people for so long but still don’t understand them..

It’s really quite simple why white people vote the way they do. Yes it’s based on racism but deep down it’s based on their survival. White people across America and Europe feel their dominance in society is at a threat so they’re clinging onto parties or leaders who represent white power/supremacy (Donald Trump/ far right etc) in order to retain their position

The democrats and far left tend to represent fairness and equality (on paper) which doesn’t benefit straight white men as now they have more competition from other groups (if you didn’t know people don’t want equality, they want advantage over others.. and white men are now feeling that there advantage over others is decreasing)

I like this cracka here, man!

Post all of that to ignore that the major reason is white people have turned away from Democrats at the advent of the Civil Rights era.

FBA is trick to make do-nothing cats feel like they are doing something. If they are not organizing and actually trying to control politics rather than "holding the vote," they are merely self-selecting for voter disenfranchisement. We know who that benefits.

huh how is a group of people a trick?

white people the main ones talking about bootstraps when they been playing with a leg up for centuries. Anything close to approaching a meritocracy or fairness and they lose their mind start rioting looting and killing like the savages they are. they don't really want to compete. they never have wanted to.

Yes, and one of the reasons they think she was too "center" is over class issues.

Many far-leftists believe that Kamala and establishment Dems are "corporate shills" and that Dems "lost the working class" because they don't "fight powerful donors and special interest groups enough". I hear it all the time.

 

[King Poetic]

People talk about black people trying to live this extraordinary lifestyle and blah blah

But poor and working class white people are the biggest phonies in the world , but since they white they play that game like they living like trump, living like those other politicians and they know more than any other race even with a 3rd grade education because they feel blacks and others would just assume they are rich and smart..

Not all but a huge population of white people will stay voting republican regardless if trump fukk they wife in front of them, just because they hate for blacks and others

 

[Bigblackted4]

FBA is not a political origination, FBA is a lineage.

These two videos contradict each other because reparations are political.

 

[Biscayne]

Thing is I would absolutely be in favor of a Black political organization that promotes Black interests. Could you imagine the lobbying power we could have off of sports and media stars alone. Politicians would absolutely have to listen to our concerns and vote along our interests.


I wouldn’t exclude Africans and West Indian peoples though, that’s silly. Especially since most families are mixed.


But if it’s just online role playing and larping what’s the point? To make others feel bad?

Most black American families aren’t mixed heritage with Caribbeans and Africans to my knowledge. Only in places like Ny and Miami do you see this on any sort of large scale.

Meanwhile white unionist, white bernie bros, and other white “leftist” switched from reluctantly voting for Biden to voting for trump or withholding their votes the moment kamala was announced as the dnc candidate.

Was Kamala that much more different than Biden policy wise?
