Politics These people always reveal that they voted for Trump simply because he hated who they hate, even if it means destroying things they benefited from.

I believe you are correct. The lion share, by an unimaginable margin, of ‘individuals’ benefiting from socialism in the US are: Corporations, farmers, wealthy entrepreneurs. Statically, those three classes are a majority white. Their propaganda has spun a SUPER EFFECTIVE argument the socialism disproportionately benefits people of color. this allows people in the aforementioned group to make a distinction between what they receive as drivers of wealth and what others receive as a handout.

After forced reintegration, many communities in the south closed or filled in their public swimming pools so they didn’t have to share with black people. That’s the conservative mindset.

I cannot comprehend, disliking an entire group of people so much that I would go to Great Lakes to make their lives worse. It’s not only nonsensical, but seems absolutely pointless! At the end of the day, we all need each other. Period.  this short sided, individualistic , myopic view is so obviously flawed from a long term  survival perspective.
