Different user, but it’s obvious to anyone who’s been paying attention that he will just give more tax breaks to the rich and corporations. The wealth divide will grow even further.
And Trump will further destroy protections that Americans rely on.
Most pollution sources in the U.S. are placed in close proximity to residential areas in which POC & impoverished people reside. Trump crippled the EPA and as a result air quality for said people dropped like a rock that was already at the bottom of the ocean.
This isn’t fear mongering, this is the shit we witnessed the first time around. The second time will be just as bad at a minimum.
Even if Trump doesn’t get elected, eventually another republican will. And with goals of theirs looking like that, I don’t know if this country will be safe in the foreseeable future.
Hopefully by Zoomers (currently aged 12 – 27) pushing back hard on it when they actually vote in large numbers. Because, you know, young people don’t vote.
Thus all the social media PsyOps. Like it or not, TikTok is critical to the future of our country.
Zoomers aren’t even 30 yet and the oldest of Alphas (incl. my daughter) are just preteens. That said, you’re right, they are in grave danger of having the wool pulled over their eyes by viral disinformation campaigns; however, they have massive potential to use all that for benevolent purposes. We also have some time and opportunity yet to teach them the importance of civic duty and the critical thinking they will need to combat the gauntlet of scams they’ll be running through in the years to come.
“I’m literally dying of thirst. I can only pick from two glasses of water. One is poison and will definitely kill me. The other tastes bad and may give me the runs, but I’ll survive.”
“I have it! I’ll drink neither and wait as others pour the poison water down my throat for me!”
What do you suppose trump will do to help you?

He’ll also set forth many of the components of Project2025 which, if you haven’t read, is scary to say the least.
I have, and it is terrifying.

For better or worse I’m hoping things like Taylor Swift getting involved helps the situation.

Don’t get me wrong, I am not putting any faith in Taylor Swift. I’m not a fan, and she is ultimately a piece of shit for a myriad of reasons.
I’m more or less trying to express the same sort of “I wish I won the lottery” kind of energy, but the political equivalent.

Right. I was off by a generation. Edited to fix, thanks for that.
Not a problem. I blame it on the media referring to everyone they see as “them damn kids” as millennials
I’m not sure you replied to the right person.
I did. you’re claiming voting is pointless, but all abstaining can lead to is trump
I never said Trump would help me. So your question is irrelevant.
Your actions will help elect him. 2+2=4 whether you’re acknowledging it or not
Sounds like you’re exactly what I’ve been going on about this whole time. If you have nothing productive to say we’re done here.
Not voting is bad. Take a civics class or something
I’ve taken two. Try exploring exercises in reading comprehension.
