Trump is doing exactly what he repeatedly said he'd do. Why would anyone who voted for him regret it?
My NPC friend keeps insisting Trump's policies will only hurt his base and that they voted against their own interests. They all read off the same gay script from their fake reality.
Same. I was expecting him to sit there tweeting and drinking diet coke for 4 years while the world fell apart around him. I'm astonished he's not only doing things, but he's doing things that matter. He's playing hardball with exactly the kind of people who deserve it. It's only been two weeks so I'm not confident enough to call him a good president yet, but if the next four years go the way the last two weeks have, he'll be in my top 5 easily.
My NPC friend keeps insisting Trump's policies will only hurt his base and that they voted against their own interests.
Meanwhile, the machine shop I work for has seen a major uptick in orders, including some customers going so far as to double their demands and even asking for more with the limit being our production capability rather than their demand. Which means overtime in my future, more pay, and job security.
I am sure it is only a coincidence this all happened about a week after Trump was elected, and even more after he was inaugurated. What a generous man Biden is, making it so his economic policies that resulted in a slow shop finally turned into prosperity right after he left.
this is so infuriatingly arrogant. "Have you considered the possibility, that you might be wrong about what their interests are? Nah, of course not they're stupid, and you're smart because you get all your opinions from government approved suppliers."
The narrative is "people only voted for him because of the economy....wokeness and our heinous cult has nothing to do with it....these views are still the majority"
The reality is the average American probably would take a 20 year hit to the economy if it meant wokeness is forever resigned to the dustbin of history, and crime/border/corruption gets dealt with.
The economy was one of the points of many that people voted for, but they're narrative is, "dumb Americans just voted because of economy and egg prices are still high after three weeks in office".
There's another narrative on the left that says the only reason anyone voted for him (other than because they're ebil raycists and muhsoggyknees) is because everyone idiotically assumes they're "temporarily embarrassed billionaires" who will strike it rich any day now.
I genuinely hate the outright arrogance these people have. It’s one thing to spend time curating a standpoint while constantly using other data/information to clash against it. This is how normal people used to garner understanding of topics
It’s a completely different thing to read the same 20 article headlines over and over and then set an unwavering standpoint that since they want to help people, anything against their stance is obviously against helping people. This means that big company with gay filter means they should be supported no matter what.
They don’t care that they are getting replaced and shafted…they are too stupid to even consider it
It's emotionally-driven judgement that keeps them in the bubble, and yeah more than a little arrogance too. (or ego) They feel personally attacked by "bad guys". I've been there. It takes an extra step to calm down and consider "maybe I'm the bad guy here". The reddit hivemind does not allow anyone to calm down, and the collective hugbox continually assures them they are all good guys on the right side of history.
My husband and I want to move to CA badly but we just can’t afford to live there. In a very low cost of living area now and there’s no way.
How unselfaware can you be?
Also, some of the conservatives there aren't really at the top of their game, like the guy claiming that Elon doubled Twitter's valuation and then only being able to point to a Tucker Carlson interview. While the people on this sub are irredeemable, this isn't exactly da wae to persuade normies or left-leaners.
Any conservative worth their salt has been permabanned from Reddit. All that’s left are former leftists and teens. They’re not going to make the best arguments because all of the good posters are here.
And a massive amount of foreigners many of whom are foreign agents of disinformation, FUD, and propaganda.
Oh, yes, and bots. This was years ago when a forensic audit was done before being sold to Conde Nast, they found over 40% of reddit were bots, as any advertising revenue rates are determined by the amount of humans interacting by posting, not bots.
Bots don't look at ads or buy anything.
A nice reminder why I don't use Reddit. Those people are depressingly unhinged, and have also forgotten what the downvote button is for, if they ever knew.
And all of the paid shills and bots totally real and in-touch real humans responding are telling stories about "my uncle is now on Team Bernie!" and "every reTHUGlican I talk to is amazed by REALITY, because they had no IDEA!"
Which is hilarious because more than few democrats I know have left the party.
Biden fucking the entire country up with gay tranny faggotry, supporting anti-White racists and then Harris being forced on them was enough for them to vote Team MAGA.
I think it was the right call to do it THE way they are doing it. The left used up their powder early crying over the deportations of literal pedophiles, rapists, gang members and murders.
When the net is widened, the 'crying wolf' should set in that normies will largely not care to be guilt tripped.
It also gets all the illegals to show their true colors by protesting (with the Mexican flag), causing problems, and screaming how much they hate America and all of us.
Which helps keep people very pro-deporting them all, even if they aren't saying it aloud.
A Mexican TV station was interviewing actual Mexicans in Mexico and they were pissed at the protesters saying that they are Chicano and Gringos and that real Mexicans don't have a problem with the US deporting the criminals because it will make the rest of them here look better when the crime rate goes down
While I can sympathize with their opinion, they literally let the problem happen. The illegals had to go through their country, including the criminals. Heck the criminals literally own their country and run half of everything if not more. By what you say, they only care now because it makes them look better, not a care about the legions of rapes, murder, and drugs.
They don't get to act high and mighty now to save face when they turned a blind eye to the problem for so long and let it all get this bad to begin with.
The fact that we don't salt their entire nation to ruin for what they've done to ours is a testament to our restraint and kindness. Because if that was an option on the table, I'd be voting for it.
The Mexicans didn't want them to pass through either. They have their own "deep state" problem that they are trying to get rid of also. The Mexican government uses the cartels as their "red guard" or " brown shirts". If Trump can do something about the cartels, most Mexicans will go home and take back control of their country
Considering they released that big article a few weeks ago crying about 2000 whole immigrants ruining their streets and city by hanging around, I'm not gonna buy they didn't notice tens of millions coming through over the years nor that they gave a single shit about the problem since it wasn't in their backyard.
Which means they chose to do nothing about the problem, which is fine because what can you do, but now they want to complain about the problem making them look bad?
most Mexicans will go home and take back control of their country
lol. This is the same mindset that "Mexicans are actually super Conservative and Christian, they won't vote for anything Left wing!" They have shown that by the millions they will vote for and support short term, free money solutions and happily toss away any principle or belief they have for it.
They aren't some super based, oppressed group that needs liberating to become Our Great Ally. They've shown time and time again to be the architects of their own failings and will need to be dragged into improving their own lot in life.
Which, again, at that point I'd rather just empty their entire nation of them and claim it as new land for America.
Mexico City runs the politics of the nation much the same way as big liberal cities run otherwise conservative states. The Mexicans in the rural parts are very conservative and fit in quite well. They warned me about the Venezuelans years ago. Back in the Obama years they showed me a video of immigrants from central America that rejected the food they offered to them because it was a plate of beans. The central Americans knocked the plate out of the lady's hand and said it was food for pigs and they wanted beef. The riff between Mexican and those from further south goes back many years. Try watching some videos in Spanish from Mexico and you will see they are just as pissed as we are about the globalist agenda. With the censorship money getting pinched, you might see a reality that has been hidden from us.
And I don't have much agency in regards to what my government/country did to every nation for the last 100 years.
Yet I've spent my entire life having the entire world shit on me, directly, for those actions. From pompous Europeans to whiny 3rd worlders, all of them taking my money and then talking shit about something I'd also like us to stop doing.
But, as the "trade war" shows, we are supposed to just not return any favors and be good and kind and soft with them, when they were happy to be shits and unfair to us until now.
My workplace is a healthy amount of Trump voters and "fucking felon, should be shot again" and its been a nonstop dabbing on group 2 from a proud and happy group 1.
The only people I've seen talking about regretting their vote (that I can't be certain isn't paid for it, though I'm still leaning to it) is the anti-Jews who are shocked that an openly pro-Israel president is doing pro-Israel things. And that's a level of distinction that the Lefties cannot begin to understand about the Right.
Nah bro, Big Egg™ has AI-powered egg printers in their factory farms. They just don't want to turn it on because of Artificial Scarcity™ and Corporate Greed™.
Top post is about the price of eggs, a popular leftie talking point “You only care about the price of eggs vs literally anything else”. Nothing organic about Reddit.
I've experienced this kind of thing before. These sorts of people never think to ask themselves if the people opposed to them believe in what they are doing just as much as they do themselves.
They are so wrapped up in their virtue affirmation that the motivations of their opponents never even enter their minds. It can't, because to the Anointed, those opposing them are evil, and no one tries to understand evil people...
In my state and city sub (the only ones I visit besides memes) I keep seeing not only the sentiment that the 'regret' is not real (continued screeching about MAGATs and CONSEQUENCES) but also a lot more people actually standing up to and telling the lefties to fuck off and leave if they don't like it.
Kind of wonder how many "mods" on reddit were getting some manner of USAID "gibs" to control the narrative. Or how many Reddit "Ultra special super fantastic secret level" subscriptions government agencies were paying for.
Elon may want to hold off on quietly buying up RDDT stock as it may start to mysteriously tank soon.
It's almost as if feminists go by what they feel is reality instead of what actually is reality. Normies in general celebrate this instead of condemning the delusion and the insanity.
I watch the Reddit frontpage just to see what propaganda gets pushed. That OptimistsUnite sub didn't show up until recently, with every post being "My rebuplican dumbass neighbor/father/brother is totally coming around".
Those "my conservative __ regrets voting for Trump" posts have been happening since the WEEK OF the election, before he was even in office. Not to mention the Walz posts. The entire site is astroturfed to hell and back, and I'm surprised one of them is starting to realize it.
I'm not saying conservatives don't use social media, but a conservative posting on Reddit is a waste of time. They've made it crystal clear that they don't want to hear from us, and you're likely to be banned by one of their mods as soon as you infer that you're anything short of anarcho-communist. It's a little different in real life as most of them don't have the courage to rant to your face, but going straight to the hive mind is just bad judgment and futile.
Trump is doing exactly what he repeatedly said he'd do. Why would anyone who voted for him regret it?
My NPC friend keeps insisting Trump's policies will only hurt his base and that they voted against their own interests. They all read off the same gay script from their fake reality.
I thought he would do almost nothing and basically be just a 4 year pause on the globalist agenda.
I'm so glad I was wrong, the year feels good so far.
I thought he'd do some good stuff, some bad stuff, and some nothing. I didn't expect this swarm of greatness right out of the gate, that's for sure.
Same. I was expecting him to sit there tweeting and drinking diet coke for 4 years while the world fell apart around him. I'm astonished he's not only doing things, but he's doing things that matter. He's playing hardball with exactly the kind of people who deserve it. It's only been two weeks so I'm not confident enough to call him a good president yet, but if the next four years go the way the last two weeks have, he'll be in my top 5 easily.
Seriously, he did that last time too.
He did alot last time. You sound like you ate liberal proganda
Yep. His first term was okay to good in terms of foreign policy, no new wars, etc.
Domestically it was a cock up of massive proportions.
I expected more of the same. But so far shit is actually getting done.
How?
Explain yourself, fag.
Meanwhile, the machine shop I work for has seen a major uptick in orders, including some customers going so far as to double their demands and even asking for more with the limit being our production capability rather than their demand. Which means overtime in my future, more pay, and job security.

Right, my “interests” are not worldwide gay Communism.
The narrative is "people only voted for him because of the economy....wokeness and our heinous cult has nothing to do with it....these views are still the majority"

Archives are always good
A lot of pessimism in that optimism sub.
I've not seen if it's still live but I expect some of those 'moderators' to cull anything not approved by the Department of Nothing To See Here soon.
I call it the coping and seething sub. (With some larping mixed in.)
How unselfaware can you be?

It must be waaay worse now.
Thanks. Also, yuck.
A nice reminder why I don't use Reddit. Those people are depressingly unhinged, and have also forgotten what the downvote button is for, if they ever knew.
I just got another alt banned because someone said it’s not right that people are just letting a fascist regime take over
My response: “why are you whining on Reddit instead of doing something about it”
Reason for ban: Rule x “no bigotry blah blah blah”
It’s like the Wild West but instead of criminals shooting eachother it’s troon mods forcing dissenters to face the wall…kinda ironic no?
Sensible downvotes are negated by bots.
And all of the
paid shills and botstotally real and in-touch real humans responding are telling stories about "my uncle is now on Team Bernie!" and "every reTHUGlican I talk to is amazed by REALITY, because they had no IDEA!"“None of my friends and relatives are on team tRUMP anymore!”
Which is hilarious because more than few democrats I know have left the party. Biden fucking the entire country up with gay tranny faggotry, supporting anti-White racists and then Harris being forced on them was enough for them to vote Team MAGA.
You mean the posts on Peddit are astroturfed bullshit? Next you'll tell me that inflation wasn't transitory and Hunter's laptop was real.
So far, I’m getting what I voted for. I do want more deportations though.
I think it was the right call to do it THE way they are doing it. The left used up their powder early crying over the deportations of literal pedophiles, rapists, gang members and murders.

Nah bro, Big Egg™ has AI-powered egg printers in their factory farms. They just don't want to turn it on because of Artificial Scarcity™ and Corporate Greed™.
of course, how silly of me.
Reddit spent decades banninv conservatives.
It has lost any semblance of reality

There was a lefty post I saw a while ago that explicitly stated the need to shift the narrative to "trump regret" and to make up stories like this.
In my state and city sub (the only ones I visit besides memes) I keep seeing not only the sentiment that the 'regret' is not real (continued screeching about MAGATs and CONSEQUENCES) but also a lot more people actually standing up to and telling the lefties to fuck off and leave if they don't like it.
Feelsgoodman dot jaypeg.
Someone who might blossom into an individual. I hope that person continues to be honest with himself.
The rare real person in a sea of shills
Redditors lying about reality could be encapsulated in that Spidermans pointing at other Spidermans meme.

The allegory of the cave. You can only see the world for what it is with your own eyes only if you LEAVE THE DAMN CAVE.
