        This is news to me as well. I lived right next to a Navajo reservation until shortly before the election and most of them seemed decidedly anti-maga to me, especially given the uranium mining debates that were going on.

        It’s mostly from people who see themselves as “one of the good ones” and sees trumpism as a license to behave however you want and treat others as lesser

        i’m an american and i think i understand why this is the case. i’ll answer you in an edit here later when i have time but even americans get a little perplexed by the wide support trump sees from minority demographics.

        it has to do with a large confluence of factors. these people aren’t stupid (well, anymore than the average person), and i just wanna say this early on in the discourse here.

        international and domestic understanding of exactly what MAGA and trump are is woefully poor. everyone is content just tossing it all into easy little boxes that match their worldviews instead of understanding what is truly happening on the ground, in real life. the neofascists, neolibs, and leftists - worldwide - are all pretty generally guilty of this on the reg.

          Just weird that they use being poor is the excuse for thinking billionaires have their back when them being poor is exactly why the billionaires have become billionaires.

          I’m gonna have to say that either requires some heavy mental gymnastics to miss that connection if even a severe lack of even mediocre level intelligence to catch it.

          Cuz if you question them on it they will double down on it.

    I love seeing historic pictures like this that speaks of different times and in no way shape or form have any relation to what’s happening nowadays so that we can look at how much further we have progressed from the past.

      I don’t think you understand. The year 1940 owns that photo. OP simply asked 1940 if they could post the picture on Lemmy.

        I’ve never heard anyone defend this mistake with this reasoning, points for at least being funny
