MODERATORS
 

A small business owner who voted for Donald Trump recently posted a video on TikTok, pleading for help as crushing tariffs on China threatened to bankrupt his operation, which imports alloy wheels. His call for support, however, drew little sympathy from some fellow Americans.

“Votes have consequences,” he was told, with many comments from Twitter/X users relishing the notion that another MAGA voter was suffering because of their political choice. The backlash prompted a second video from the man, in which he dropped several F-bombs while criticizing the apparent heartlessness of those celebrating his hardship.

The division of agriculture labourers from city labourers might be one of the greatest and most effective psyops of all time.

That’s how I judge you, not who you voted for.

Lol .. except who you vote for says a lot of things about you. It tells people what your values are.

How can we support the people realizing their mistakes in voting Trump? Seriously. That's how we change hearts and minds.

I want to support them, and then together, I want to march with them against these assholes.

You are gonna be so shocked when those idiots lose everything, but then still vote GOP again, cause they are so much dumber than you could ever hope to understand.

Yeah, they'll probably blame left-wing liberals for what is happening right now.

Serves them right. I wonder how many small businesses and farmers have gone under and how much of that business has been snatched up by large corporations.

It's like dealing with spoiled children. Actions have consequences, if you don't like those consequences, pull another Jan 6th.

Wheelhead got exactly what he voted for. And Republicans have the answer: grab those bootstraps.

Greed and hatred motivated them into casting the ballot, and look at what they got.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 2 months ago

Oh you want to talk about "heartlessness"? Give me a fucking break

[–] zd9@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

I will always laugh at and celebrate MAGA idiots learning the hard way
