Um, excuse me…
Since when does beauty have anything to do with political opinion?
And since when does political opinion have anything in particular to do with showerthoughts?
Its a lot easier these looking at a beautiful person these days and not feeling a bit of jealousy know there is a decent chance they would vote for fascism.

Just a thought. It’s true for me. Just going plain statistics. The fact that Trump is still in this race has left a disgusting taste in my mouth that concerns about 1/3 the population.

I don’t think Trump and his ilk are known for being attractive

Just going plain statistics
And completely ignoring demographics.
First, a lot of people didn’t vote, period.
Second, support differs drastically by state. Let’s pretend we’re in 2020, right after the election. Are you in California? If so, a randomly chosen eligible voter has an 88% of having registered to vote. And a registered voter had an 81% chance of having voted. So 29% of people didn’t even vote. If they voted, they had a 34% chance of having voted for Trump. So that’s already reduced the overall chance that an eligible voter voted for Trump to 24%. But if they were younger than 30, that drops from 34% to 25% (overall: 18%). (Under 40? 29% (21%).) Or if they’re Black, Latino, or Asian? 21% (15%).
So if a 20-something Latino caught your eye, then there’s only a 17% chance he, she, or they voted for Trump. (And if you use different pronouns, there’s very little chance you voted for Trump.)
On the other hand, if you’re only into older white people (50+) who’ve been doing better while Trump was president, and you hold that not voting or voting third party is the same as voting for Trump (only a Sith deals in absolutes) then there’s a 61% chance he or she voted for Trump.
At least, I think that’s how those probabilities get combined.

lmao this post is a minefield. so, you wouldn’t feel jealous if they’re just beautiful and not fascist?
Clinicallydepressedpoochie@lemmy.world 1 month ago
No, I might.

Then their beauty and your jealousy have nothing to do with their politic opinion and you’re just mixing up unrelated things in the OP

I do believe that Republicans have a higher ratio of blondes and cat haters. Not sure if those things are attractive.

I’m not so nieve to think democrats have some sort of monopoly on beauty. Unless you’re talking inner beauty.

9/10 posts in this community are stoned people or edge lords. Not sure how they all seem to miss the mark of “shower thought”.
