People who use lemmy are a very particular subset, people who self-host another, and you are posting this, saying various things about the government in a long AI-generated post, then claiming you wrote it yourself. People don't randomly lie. You're being paid.

could be true, could be false. ICE has lost all credibility and blatantly makes shit up. Is this a time when they are being honest or is this more made up shit? who knows, but probably more bullshit
conservatives are notorious for under reporting prejudice in surveys and also not responding to surveys
even if this article is right, Republicans still use anti-trans rhetoric and anti-trans policy to appeal to ignorant uneducated males of low socioeconomic status, and it works...
if you go far enough down on the totem pole of socioeconomic status and education, you find people who genuinely think that Democrats are trying to give all the money to the elites and don't understand that proposals for trickle down economics mean they, the lower class people, are going to get fucked. Because so many of these low education and low intelligence people can only vote emotionally, because they actually can't understand the economic issues, they get tricked by conservatives every time with emotional ploys about trans people and other bullshit...
Because if you're some tractor driver who went to Bob Jones university and can't understand things like monetary supply and federal interest rates and crowding out of private investment by government bonds and real prices and the problems of the CPI, you still may understand the myths of the Bible and that trans people "don't seem quite right" and you may laugh at "trans-insanity" insults and other things enough to connect with super rich people out to fuck you as hard as your ignorant brain will allow. And so if you're that type, you're going to vote Republican and then 2 years later complain about how it's unfair you're losing the farm and tractor.
It's not about how people rationally feel, this is about rhetorical mendacious trickery to confuse and dupe the stupid plus rage-bait wedge issues so that enough poor people vote with the rich so that both the lower and middle classes get fucked.
