    Latino culture is just very conservative by nature. There’s a lot of factors, religion, (family) education, traditions and just how their communities operate. It’s more telling that Trump literally has to threaten deportation or extermination to get them to break ranks than his rhetoric for the past decade, let alone prior to that. If Latinos didn’t have brown skin they’d be the model republican. And somehow that drives the power center of the party up a fucking wall thanks to their racist views.

        Conservative politics, as John Staurt Mills pointed out, attracts.stupid people. Not.all conservatives are stupid.of course, many are just grifters etc.

        “I did not mean that Conservatives are generally stupid; I meant, that stupid persons are generally Conservative” h . John Stuart Mill

        And Cipllola defines a stupid person as someone who hurts others even if they hurt themselves.

        You have the perfect intersection here of conservative and stupid.

        You remember we are talking about conservatives, who are conditioned to shut off their brain, avoid any critical thinking and take what ever “good” people tell them as though it were gospel.
