What do Americans want?


>What do Americans want?

I'm a progressive guy. Bleeding heart, even.

But I come from a long line of white trash, and I am intimately familiar with what they do and do not care about.

They DO NOT care about gay, trans, minority people. At all. Ever. Every single syllable spoken about them only serves to enrage them.

They DO NOT care about Palestinians, except to equate them with ISIS.

Americans want low taxes, low inflation, a 400-foot wall surrounded by minefields on the US-Mexican border, and democrats to shut the fuck up about racism and LGBTQ+.

Those sentiments are only getting stronger.


Are poor white Americans really as terrible people as you say they are? I would usually find that hard to believe, though the results do strongly imply that you're right. What a depressing thought.


You have someone who refers to poor white people as "white trash", I would doubt they are a fair arbitrator of explaining their world view.


My extended family are also the traditional "white trash", and yes they do indeed think this same way.


Security and financial stability. People always vote for the “right” when they feel scared and threatened. History repeats itself.


free money for white people with "christian" values apparently.


Ah yes, we apparently would prefer an oligarchic theocracy.
