Trump is a rich old white racist man with no talent who made money off daddy's fortune.

He's the embodiment of the establishment. This makes sense since that's what they want to go back to.

They forget that's what led them here.

Theil is already massively invested with Trump and JD vance. So yeah. They do.

At this point I'm more concerned about the American election results, which could result in an authoritarian regime...

Well, largely we don't expect politicians to keep promises....

Calling it now.

They'll say it's a conspiracy and Biden is running things behind the scenes as head of the deep state, Kamala is just a puppet

He's gonna be the forever bogeyman.

I'm a Reddit refugee too. But thanks for the context. I haven't seen the straw man. I have noticed a really strong streak of "blue no matter who" which is a terrible attitude to have, that's the way the Maga folks think.

I'm not even in the US (I'm an Aussie) but my opinion is blue, but like, do better? We gotta do better. Please do better.

To be fair we have the same thing here with shills for the mainstream parties. (But we do have viable 3rd options)

Empathy is the primary driver for our evolution. Without it we'd never have gotten to caves, let alone built cities.

Option number 2 is the redtext but a dude.

Not sure I agree. Just from the number of pro-kamala threads and negative Trump threads. I don't see that much in the way of extreme views.
