It’s hard to believe that there are still people out there arguing that Biden was not legitimately elected, despite all the evidence that he was and no supporting evidence anywhere of any widespread electoral fraud. But let’s not pretend this ended in 2020. In 2024, Trump will claim fraud once more because he simply can’t stand the idea that he might have lost because more than half the voters don’t ever want him back in the White House. We need to prepare for his lies and how his MAGA base might rally to yet another false cause.
@georgetakei Unfortunately there are probably some people out there who refuse to admit that the Confederacy lost the civil war

@bouriquet @georgetakei

You'd better believe there are! When I was a teen in Mississippi, boys spent hours discussing that very subject and going over "what really happened instead of what the Yankee history books say". One of our favorite comments was "Save your Confederate money, boys! The South will rise again!!"

@corbin_lambeth @bouriquet @georgetakei
Yes. Unfortunately not many of those kids get away from their bigoted environment and are able to break out of the programming. They grow old & teach their kids & grandkids their "conservative family values". Generations live in denial, with a false sense of superiority & abhorrence of "Yankee liberalism".
@OlDude82 @corbin_lambeth @georgetakei And encouraged by certain media including TV that glorifies their lifestyle and values, defining it as a separate culture, including unhealthy diets and significant amounts of alcohol.
