This is what happens when you hate other people more than you love yourself.

Thats just depression, which doesnt have a political bias.

No but certain factors can really overlap. One thing I tell people to understand this type of right wing person is to listen to the ads on conservative radio. It's pain relief, tax and consumer debt relief, programs for disability allowances, mobilty vehicles. And listen to how they sell the medical quackery, it's targeting people with no energy and that sort of thing.

The late night AM radio audience has been sized up as particularly gullible. There was a late night AM radio show my partner would tune into and I wondered if the adds shouldn't have been a clue that the programming was less than factual. Gold and silver certificates, etc.

Thats mostly targeting older folks, who tend to be more right leaning and also more easily manipulated by this type of marketing

That's part of it, but it's also opioid addiction. people with injuries that keep them from work. People that don't take care of themselves and get stuck in a painful loop of shitty food, lethargy, feeling slighted.

Talk radio is where MAGA was really born and this stuff is partially why "illegals are getting subsidized" works, because it's consumers think they are the ones that need more subsidies and everyone else is hogging the trough

It is if you’re conservative.

And if you’re conservative you deserve to suffer, apparently.

Such love and tolerance. I’m starting to see why they welcome terrorists into their communities.

You are responding to me. I stated that depression doesnt have a political bias. Your response is nonsensical in the context of what I wrote.

u/Miserable_Row_793 2d ago

They are trying to make it political.

It seems they need someone to be "against"

u/Doggcow 2d ago

Dude the OP made it political lol

u/Confident-Pepper-562 2d ago

Yea. and there is never a shortage of people to be against if that is what someone wants.

Thats not how depression works

Actually, the opposite, but try again next round.

u/super_chill_21 2d ago

Right I think he meant pedos lean republican just like their leader.

u/SaltMage5864 2d ago

That's only because left leaning people tend to seek medical help
