As I said: the problem is that the people whose job it is to respond to those direct threats are, in some cases, the same ones who are making the direct threats, or enjoy the fact that those threats are being made / agree with the threats. Police unions in the states are 100% fucked beyond repair, imo.
Time for a little RATM:
Some of those that work forces
Are the same that burn crosses
Just to be clear: they get away with it because cops are the ones who’d have to arrest these idiots, and… well, that Venn diagram is very close to being a circle.
The “trust” gap is that Trump will absolutely tax rich people less… but if the pie is smaller because Trump is busy putting the economy in a nosedive, you’re gonna make less money anyways. So it’s better to keep a smaller portion of a bigger pie.
For real, that’s all I’ve been saying whenever people start come in and start bashing on Harris and pushing false equivalence. Like, yeah, Biden is super bad on his policy towards Israel and Gaza; I HOPE Harris will be better; I KNOW Trump will be worse.
That’s it. That’s the whole dynamic. That’s the only two choices we have as members of the American electorate.
