No, Trump and Vance and their surrogates are doing generalized racism. You’re just not hearing the blatant dog whistles.

And I couldn’t care less what a bunch of assholes in Aurora think about legal immigrants in their community takin’ the jerbs and daring to open Haitian food restaurants. I really couldn’t care less.

I am seeing it. I’m just not ignoring that there is in fact an interesting base for all this in order to focus on the part the racists without policy are using to push their agenda and that the liberals are ignoring cause it’s complicated and easier to focus on the racists attempt to use to belittle them without doing anything.

Sort of like how you seem to be ignoring the fact that this was all bullshit rumors started by neo-Nazis?

But if you’re saying that the neo-Nazi problem in this country needs more attention, I agree. I just don’t think that’s what you’re saying.

I’m just not ignoring that over the course of 3 years the population increased by 30% from a specific demographic that are not permanent citizens. Being used as a labor force for companies that demanded new cheap labor.

Again you are simplifying this down in the same conversation they are simply because it’s easier and more fun than the reality of what’s going in Ohio. Its rumors started to take advantage of a legitimate concern that doesn’t get simplified down to just people opening an ethnic cuisine restaurant because it’s a nice way to reduce down your opponents idiocracy.

It just makes you willingly ignorant and dismissive and with an agenda like them.
