    The proud Americans of Huntington beach will have to go unrepresented. Repressed. Unheard.

    The KKK may even need to move their west coast headquarters. This is the end of american democracy.

    apparently the mods here think it’s “bigotry” to call out the white trash evangelicals that tied their identity for israel for no logical reason.

      Are you calling the daughters of the confederacy trash!? And they’re not all evangelicals you know! Some of them are Pentecostals ,southern baptists, and even Christian identitarians!

          They’re not laughing at the proof, they’re laughing at you for attempting to persuade them with logic, reasoning, and facts. They only thing that matters to them is power, whether it’s power they can physically hold, or power derived from culture, in-groups, and their hierarchies to aid them in achieving what they want even if they don’t have the clout to force it. Trump and MAGA offer that second kind of power, the kind to bring back white, Christian, male privilege in a way that even their ancestors didn’t enjoy because what they’re trying to make is event rooted in reality but the myth of what that reality was. It’s a worse version of all the worst versions that have come before. Confederates invented the “Lost Cause” myth, and that’s what they are, a lost cause. They’re not worth wasting time on.

      They won’t. The magats where I live wont even contact the democratic congressional or Senate offices to help them with stuff since “those damn liberals are useless”. So they don’t get their SS or other fed program issues resolved and just complain about it on nextdoor constantly instead.

      The only way to make these people see reason is to cut the propaganda, anything else is wholly insufficient and or inconsistent. Trust me I just had to spend memorial Day weekend listening to my kin fellate that profligate Trump, that pissrsg Musk, and that subhuman Bianco. The only connecting thread between these folks is propaganda plain and fucken simple.

        they almost always regurgitate HERESAY too from conservative talking heads. 100% of the time, you ask them to verify thier conservative sources, you will hear they dont follow politics, or research further than that heresay. most of the time they dont even go for the 'source of the conservative propaganda"

    It’s only fair. I live in the surrounding area of a progressive town and have a MAGA trad wife with bowling pins for morals as my representative.

      They’ll be safe. They’re currently represented by a Democrat, so it isn’t like there is a real political change here.

      Local Huntington Beach government is unaffected by legislative redistricting, too, so it’s not like they ever felt represented by their rep.
