You haven’t read that guy talking about his family on here before? You can hear the banjo music start playing as you read the posts. They’re Chemtrails and Sunscreen Causes Cancer folks.
Another, former, North Carolinian here. He ain't lyin, my friend. I'm still wondering how in the hell they reelected Cooper and ended up with Mark Robinson. That's just a weird combination.
I went to Tennessee during the height of Covid. I wore a mask when I was in tight quarters. I was called a socialist. Up until this point in my life I had assumed it was only bots and trolls that screamed things like this online.
been called that by my own family because I didn't vote for trump. To this day my wife's brother won't speak to me.
I don't know about you guys, but I still see plenty of Trump flags/ stickers, and I work with a good number of guys who want him back. Fun fact: I'm the only white guy where I work.
I still see Trump flags all over the place and I’m in New Jersey for fucks sake. Folks here have had the luxury of watching his idiocy for 50 years and still think he’s the man. People are fucking stupid.
I don't think they care two shits about Trump. They do care about who has the best chance of beating Biden / implementing policies they want. (I'm not sure that's Trump, see last election.) And, they do enjoy a candidate that will tell the media to fuck off. (That's definitely Trump.) I wish Trump would go away, but I don't see much chance of that happening soon.
I had more than two mechanics on my shift come as close as it’s possible in government work to getting fired because they refused to wear one. This was after a year of everywhere else requiring one. The killing of the “gays” came up while watching of all things - House Hunters. Had a gay couple wanting to buy a house, father in law brings up that it’d be a short show if “we” just killed them all. Then it just starts snowballing into laughter and the logistics of it. With the exception of my father in law they are all college educated people with white collar jobs, it’s not an isolated incident either. My wife and I don’t see them that much, maybe twice a year. Get out away from the research triangle, Charlotte, Wilmington etc… it’s a nightmare. One guy I work with is convinced they put litter boxes in elementary schools for the kids who identify as animals. No one will convince him otherwise.
maybe it's just this specific part of Texas, but no one can out-racist hispanics. They will vote en masse for Trump because they hate blacks and they hate "illegals" even if they once were themselves. I kept telling this to my wife and she didn't believe me, until someone doing work on our house was being a little too casual around her. The amount of hate toward other races, and self-loathing toward younger generations of their own, within that community, is unrivaled and quite frankly shocking.
Jesus fucking Christ, people around here will tell you there’s litter boxes in every school and even the community college. And yet, not a one has ever been able to provide prof, it’s always, “so and so told me.” And we’re in Upstate NY, or as I refer to it, “The Deep South of the Northeast.”
I'm always in awe of Republicans' ability to turn a real problem that is their fault (our handling of mass shootings is so poor that some schools have stored kitty litter in their classrooms in the event of an extended lockdown where they can't allow the children to leave the room and go to the bathroom) into a fake problem that is the Democrats' fault (teacher are indoctrinating kids into being trans drag furries or some shit).
There’s definitely a non-zero chance this is happening at some community colleges. Except the professors don’t need to indoctrinate anyone. I bore witness to the furry convention in Boston about 5 years ago when I used to commute to work. There’s nothing “too weird” for those people.
What you're observing is not indoctrination, but the beauty of capitalism. The reason you saw it at a convention center and not a university is because convention centers are whores for money and anyone who can afford a full fur suit and the attendant regular cleaning bills is loaded and prime for the milking (I'm just assuming they have a milking fetish).
I was talking to a hispanic friend after trump lost and told him I was surprised at the amount of hispanics who still loved him after everything he said and did. He explained it thusly: "Dude, no one hates Mexicans like Mexicans."
Kitty litter is excellent for use when cleaning up every day, less dramatic things that happen in schools like vomit or urine. I don’t know if any schools in our district that have it on hand for what you describe though.
