Comment on US farmers say Trump’s $12bn package not enough to undo damage from tariffs
KindnessIsPunk@lemmy.ca 1 day agoYou must understand that people in deep red states have had structural barriers to their education purposefully placed there which make it difficult to grasp issues that require abstract critical thinking. This is not me looking down my nose, this is a fact.
This is made doubly difficult it’s not about what’s actually happening in their day to day that determines how they vote, Republicans have created an identity and entrenched it with their sense of self, making an attack on the ideology an attack on your their place in the world.
Does that make them right? Absolutely not, but in order to cure we must first understand.

Do we blame the regular German citizens who embraced Nazism for embracing Nazism.
I get it, but there isn’t a way to educate the willfully ignorant.
You just have to let these people know they are on a path twoards killing their neighbors and you are ready to fight and kill them in defense if necessary.

I’m not saying they have a right to be like that, I’m saying you’re wrong about the cause.
