Unhinged Republican candidate calls Kamala Harris a "little wh*re" as GOP descends into misogyny - Lemmy.World

This is what I was waiting for.

Faced with a black/asian woman, the Republicans just aren’t going to be able to help themselves - their hateful bigotry is going to keep rearing its ugly head.

The key moment is going to be when Candidate Lardbucket himself lets some of his own racism and misogyny fall out of his festering gob. That’s going to be glorious.

They went from zero to fully mask-off in less than 24 hours. I’m amazed at the quickness of it.

Honestly, I am too.

I fully expected it, but not this soon.

Looking forward to more though. Every one of these is just more votes against Trump.

My hope is not to change them. But it is to change their children. Or those adjacent. If we keep trying to change them, we will never win.

We’ll never change the base. Their investment in Trump and conservatism is more akin to religious faith than ideology, and just as with religion, to question it would be to undermine the basis for their (clearly unjustified) conviction that they’re decent and moral.

I don’t think we really need to worry about changing their children either. Their children are already changing, which is an awful lot of the reason for their egregiously anti-democracy panic. They recognize at some level that the tide of history is turning against them, and they can’t stand it. They think they can stop that process through force and fraud, and don’t seem to understand that all they can do that way is maybe postpone it a bit, or that bybtrying to save their justly dying ideology that way, they ensure that a day of reckoning will come - that they’ll go down in history as not just an abandoned ideology, but a justly destroyed one.

If you were in a red state during the Obama campaign/presidency you wouldn’t be surprised.
Yeah, the overly racist shit that popped up all over rural NV was pretty disgusting.
Honestly, I wasn’t as disappointed or surprised at that as older Dems saying they just “couldn’t bring themselves to vote a Black into the White House.”
The propaganda machine was full throttle on Biden is old and unfit, that as soon as switch happened Republicans were scrambling to grab onto the first thing they could come up with, of course racism and misogyny are the fallbacks.
I’ve personally seen the “Genocide Joe” voices smoothly transition into “unhinged prosecutor” in no time flat.
I’d say that they’ve been mask-off for quite a while tbh.
Stayed mask off through the worst of covid, only put masks on to protest like little proud boys.

“they”

Little fish are taking these early bites. Don’t play along.
