    I love seeing historic pictures like this that speaks of different times and in no way shape or form have any relation to what’s happening nowadays so that we can look at how much further we have progressed from the past.

      I don’t think you understand. The year 1940 owns that photo. OP simply asked 1940 if they could post the picture on Lemmy.

        I’ve never heard anyone defend this mistake with this reasoning, points for at least being funny

        i’m an american and i think i understand why this is the case. i’ll answer you in an edit here later when i have time but even americans get a little perplexed by the wide support trump sees from minority demographics.

        it has to do with a large confluence of factors. these people aren’t stupid (well, anymore than the average person), and i just wanna say this early on in the discourse here.

        international and domestic understanding of exactly what MAGA and trump are is woefully poor. everyone is content just tossing it all into easy little boxes that match their worldviews instead of understanding what is truly happening on the ground, in real life. the neofascists, neolibs, and leftists - worldwide - are all pretty generally guilty of this on the reg.
