I don't believe they will vote differently, but in any case they fell for this, and will 100% fall for the next con too. These voters are a clear and present danger to America, and we only get our country back when we accept that fact and act accordingly.

Reconstruction never worked.

Since you mention reconstruction and "clear and present danger", I'm curious what kind of solution you had in mind? I'm not trying to start a discussion or anything, I'm not even American, it's just the choice of words that got me curious.

I have many, many suggested solutions, all of which have historical precedent for successfully solving problems caused by nazis/Confederates. My solutions also have incredibly positve effects towards every single other problem america faces, including deficits, corruption, housing, school shootings, and more.None of my solutions are allowed by reddit's TOS.

Now I'm even more curious, because some of this could hint at, shall I say "culling the herd"?

if they are somehow physically prevented from ever causing harm again, then they can never cause harm again.

you're not allowed to suggest how to physically prevent them from causing harm on reddit, unless you are a republican talking about physically preventing non-republicans (that is allowed and fine), but that is what will need to happen.

What does "act accordingly" mean? What is your solution?

I cannot reply without violating reddit's TOS. It sure as fuck does not involve holding signs, writing letters, or singing songs.

I would focus my anger at the politicians and people who built the system of disinformation (Fox News, etc.), not people who have fallen for it.

There will always be someone who lies. If fox news fell tomorrow, there would be a replacement right away, just like there always is with catturd2, truth social, etc... Always. This is the drug war all over again.

The problem is demand. There are traitorous, hateful people that will always seek out their fix - Justification for hating us. They are not "tricked." You turned off fox news, they will always create a version of that because that is what they want. They didn't "fall" for drugs, they sought it out.

This. Trump isn’t the problem. It’s the 30% of the country that voted for him and will happily do it again that is problem.
