NEARLY HALF?
This country continues to depress me. It really should be way higher.
“nearly half” so over 50% of US adults are mentally challenged it seems
Well, remember George Carlin when he said something along the lines of “Think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize that half the population is dumber than that.”
Probably more, some that are mentally challenged awknowledge Trump is terrible, they are just mentally challenged in a nother way.
There’s something that needs to be done, and that something is drastic, and a lot of people don’t want to hear, or see it. But we can’t keep going forward as a country where more than half of people are violent sociopaths, or enablers of the latter.
More than half of US citizens are fascists? That does not surprise me.
That means a majority approve or don’t care. We’re fucked
45% disapprove the National Guard deployment, while 38% said they approve.
So 38% are enemies of Constitution and country.
The Authoritarians- a book by Prof. Altmeyer- says there’s about 1/3 of the population who are authoritarians and that percentage is pretty constant no matter what one does. SO it sounds about right
I hadn’t heard of that book before. Looking it up, it’s a book about the psychology of authoritarianism, backed by research and receipts. I’ll add it to the top of my reading list. It also seems to be available for free on the author’s website. Thank you for this.
Anytime there’s a poll, it’s always the same 30-39% of shitheads liking the bad thing.
Well no. Im an enemy of most of the country and certainly its government, not super a fan of the constitution, and im extremely unhappy about this.
That every American doesn’t approve of Trump’s handling of protests is shameful.
Did you perhaps mean disapprove?
That every American doesn’t approve of Trump’s handling of protests is shameful.
Quite the contrary. But looking at your post history, I wonder whether you accidentally said the opposite of what you meant.
That’s a lot of people who saw a reporter get shot and went “I’m cool with that”.
I’m joking. Most of them probably aren’t paying enough attention to have seen that.
Most Americans probably haven’t even seen the video. The average person is unbelievably clueless. My friends Instagram reels is animated screaming cucumbers and more brain rot. 0 news, 0 information, just straight retardation. Each of our media spheres is individually tailored and that is a massive problem when it comes to getting people on the same page.
I feel like most of my friends follow the news, but I bet you’re right that most people are just in a haze of screaming cucumbers.
I’ve seen people claim she deserved it for blocking traffic.
Did FOX even show that video?
US is lost
Nearly half eh? Yeah less then half checkes out.
The other half voted for him.
Nearly half of Americans don’t understand that when an illegal and immoral tactic is used against someone you don’t like, it can then be used against you too. Dumb fucking Americans.
We need to start finding ways to take away the rights of Evangelical Christians. Let them see how it feels for once.
Have you considered wishing them Happy Holidays?
So over half of Americans aren’t concerned with accelerating authoritarianism? Great.
They will be, when it affects them personally.
In other words, typical Republican thinking.
There’s a meme out there that goes something along the line of “Nothing Ever Happens”. This line of thinking is poison, as it doesn’t take into account incrementalism. The fall into fascism isn’t a single large step, it’s many small steps until one day you’ve realized that you’re no longer in the same place that you were, and that now, you’re lost.
It’s already affecting them personally, they’ve just been brainwashed into blaming the wrong people
A lot of Americans barely understand how the government actually functions.
They voted for it in the first place
The other half are as dumb as a bag of hammer.
That’s right. Just one hammer. With measles.
