And even if I did I wouldn't let my personal experiences change what is true about the population at a broader level, because that would be completely silly. The majority of conservatives are not against "brown people coming to America" or whatever other reductive horse shit the left has come up with. That's just a leftist hot take designed to suppress criticism by dog-whistling about racism since they know that doing that is an effective way to get people afraid to talk about things. Again, we deport and block a lot of Europeans from coming or staying here too. If you were right then that would not be the case. That's pretty much what I thought. Lower income and working class white voters make up the largest part (these groups also encompass the evangelical community) of the GOP base.The vast majority of them know nothing about European immigrants because they aren't being dog whistled to acknowledge them. I live and work with these people. They do not want non-whites coming into the country period. They know they can't stop legal ones from coming and "taking our fucking jobs" but they damn well jerk off to the thought of machine guns mounted on the border to kill anyone trying to come in illegally. Yet at the same time when asked if they would be ok with Canadians sneaking in they oppose it but the vehemence, zealotry, and desire for violence just isn't there. Stop being dishonest about it, that's all I ask. I'm not talking about you, your stance has reason and nuance, I'm talking about your party's base. --- "If you wish to converse with me define your terms" Voltaire <cite>ScazarMeltex posted [p:913338376] in UN looking...
