Complete horseshit. You knew full well that this posting about this "movement", a reaction to the election, would bring this very response. You baited people and got exactly what you wanted, all while not changing a single mind in the process.

Just some more Marxist false consciousness hand-waving wrapped up in a bow by the 98% leftist university sociology departments.Robin Garr wrote:I do believe that Trump represents the culmination of 50. Google it if you don't know of it. Coded racial "dog whistles" are most effective on those predisposed to be wary of people different from themselves, and this predisposition is linked with lower intelligence on the basis of hundreds of peer-reviewed studies.

Carla G wrote:Here's the thing, regardless of what he says he'll do for the nation (and even that's if you can trust him) Trump is a three time adulterer that BRAGS about sexually assaulting women, refers to his own daughters as "Pieces of A**" on a national radio program, openly makes fun of and ridicules the handicapped and says "I could go out and shoot someone and my followers would still vote for me!"
And NONE of those things were deal breakers for those of you that voted for him.

It's mostly based on their actions rather than their demographics. If racism and bigotry tend to pool in a particular sewer, that's not exactly the sewer's fault ...
