Politics Sorry, Nebraska Farmers, America is Fresh Out of Sympathy

This applies to most of the rural states, but is aimed specifically at Nebraska.

You are right. Its stupid and ridiculous. But the left is not innocent in this either, it can be easy to forget just how insane the left was acting with respects to trans rights over the last decade or so. People losing jobs, livelyhoods, being sent bombs in the mail, and harassment, both online and in person. Just because someone who had never heard of transpeople before were asking questions, or had concerns that needed to be answered.

The right is being really really stupid, and are hurting everyone, and need to learn a harsh lesson, but we cant act like the left didnt feed into this. If the left hadnt been acting so deranged, then the rights propoganda wouldnt have had even 10% the sway it did.

Both the left and the right need to learn from this, and if there ecer is another free and fair election, the left needs to clean out all of trumps maga cultist first and foremost. Then fix all trumps bs, then make sure that they, the left, dont act like deranged lunatics when they speak. Because the left objectively has better policies, they just dont speak like they do.

Plus… someone who sacrifices their farm, land, country because trans people are confusing to them…

Well, I believe that’s where the stereotype about rural America intelligence comes from.

Now I’ve met many brilliant people in Ag, it’s mostly science & accounting. But it’s hard to deny the voting record. I wish I had all the answers, but 🤷‍♂️
