I made a comment "The sheep vote for their butcher" on a video recently that really resonated, enough that people used it outside of YouTube. The thing is, it took me several rephrases of trying to say the same darn thing without auto moderation destroying my original comment. I mean maybe thanks to YouTube for auto moderating that I could even get that particular form of phrasing. It's annoying nonetheless.
The video was about gRump supporters who knew nothing about what they were voting against. They are the textbook definition of sheep. Cows even. Totally stupid fool voting against their own interests because of the constant deluge of distractions put in front of them. Sometimes you have to wonder if some people love to get scammed just for fun.
Think of this: Brexit was the biggest scam in UK history. To exit the European Union because a few billionaires wanted to avoid EU regulations. The repercussions ranging to an even shittier economy, a governing party change, lands being "surrendered", land disputes turning more hot where weakness can be seen from far away. They promised Brexit would do 'this and that'. The UK was scammed plain and simple. A harder life just because of a few rich people.
US is going the same way with an idiotic old gRump talking about exiting 'this and that', tariffs here and there, tax breaks here and there. As if the UK hasn't done this at all? The idea that going it alone when the same rich people said globalization is great because of the talent pool and associated cost reductions. All of this is so you are taken advantage of.
gRump supporters are sheep to be slaughtered by their own butcher. tRump is a Nazi, a Reich-winger enabled by sheep. Jail is too good for him.
If you considered a candidate for a job and you look to references with same references saying 'Hell No'. What do you do? Hire and pray for no 'f**k ups' or move to the next. It's your choice for how much damage you want to incur.
These Reich-wingers have learned from Brexit in that as long as you can spout as much BS as possible, people will come to believe it. The whole "free speech" thing is a red-herring. When things happen, BS as much as possible, blame it on someone else. It doesn't matter what comes out of it, just spray BS to overload people.
