Seems the country is not aligned with the views on Lemmy.

      It’s disgusting to contemplate, but between Dershowitz and Megyn Kelly’s recent comments, I’m starting to think that MAGAs don’t really think of anyone over the age of 14 as “children.” 😡

        This isn’t even close to being true. 83% of black voters backed Harris in 2024, with 15% voting for Trump. That’s notable because it’s a significant decrease from Biden receiving 92% of the black vote, but whites are the only major racial group of which the majority voted for Trump in 2024.

          “Even harder” is relative (to Biden, for instance), which your data just confirms.

              He’s not wrong though?

              Was the % points change since 2016 and/or 2020 higher among black folks compared to white folks in the 2025 US election or not?

              I don’t think this is racism, though I appreciate I don’t get to make claims on what and what is not, and I don’t do this to point fingers, but if we are to move forward we gotta start with solid facts, including about uncomfortable things like that. I’m happy to admit I am wrong if I am and apologize.

              If my folk - LGBT people - voted for Trump more than straights, I would not go directly to finger-pointing and nastiness either, I would start asking some pretty tough questions to myself tho.

                Black people voted for trump even harder. He’s not wrong though?

                Whether grossly misunderstanding, grossly misrepresenting or grossly misinterpreting the data, I don’t know, but I think “wrong” is far more descriptive here than “not wrong”.

                Black people voted for trump the least of any ethnic group, by far, at 15%. Asian people 40%, Hispanic people 48% and White people 55%. “Even harder” is bullshit.

        The oldest girft, insinuate a group will gain privileges by hurting another, and they all end up fucked.

        Divide and conquer.
