A small business owner who voted for Donald Trump recently posted a video on TikTok, pleading for help as crushing tariffs on China threatened to bankrupt his operation, which imports alloy wheels. His call for support, however, drew little sympathy from some fellow Americans.
“Votes have consequences,” he was told, with many comments from Twitter/X users relishing the notion that another MAGA voter was suffering because of their political choice. The backlash prompted a second video from the man, in which he dropped several F-bombs while criticizing the apparent heartlessness of those celebrating his hardship.
So is there no actual connection to the black panthers, beyond doing some similar stuff?
Also, holy shit, saying people can’t be educated because of learning disabilities/mental health is a fucking horrible thing to say… I don’t like calling people fake leftists, but holy shit, you have a LOT to learn, my god.
Wait, are you denying learning disabilities do not exist?
No. I’m disabled and I am involved in a local group of disability advocates. I am saying that you are being ableist. People with learning disabilities can absolutely learn, they can be educated, they can understand solidarity and all the rest.
Great that we agree then.
Fascists want to kill the disabled.
I want to vanguard the disabled. I am just perfectly aware fascists don’t want to give us the opportunity to educate them. In our case, a second time.
