In reply to the discussion: Do you have loved ones who voted for Trump who you KNOW are NOT racists/sexists/bigots? [View all]Jamie Mayfield
(11 posts)So I know this, that everyone on my mother's side of my family voted for Trump and that they are all horrible humans who are racist and who I will never allow my children to engage with. Sure they seem like nice Christians who live in small, rural America, but I grew up hearing what those pieces of human shit say when the doors are closed. My mother voted for that man and I made it very clear that she was no longer to ever come to my home or feel that she is welcome to speak to me. As far as I am concerned, the bitch is dead, as well as all of the rest of her family. You want to think they are good because you love them, but how many times did I hear them use the n-word, how many times did I hear them justify their hate, how many times did I listen to their explanations for why women earn less? I am tired of being told to love those who deserve nothing but my disgust. I have no love for my mother, my grandmother, my aunt, cousins, grandfather, etc. because they have no love for anyone else. They are selfish pigs, they make me ashamed of who I am. I don't want them in my life, I don't want my children to ever know they ever existed. When I start my family, I will tell them that they are dead, that I have no mother, no grandparents, no cousins. My sweet, little old great aunt is not sweet, she is a racist, my elderly grandfather who can only afford to send me a $10 gift card for Christmas after years of hard work is not a man I admire, he is the one who called the president a monkey, a n-word, and raved at the local news about how those damn n-words where killing all the good white people and they should all be hung from a tree in-front of my brother-in-law who has a black brother and sister. My Trump supporting family will all tell you they are not racist, that they did it for taxes or for jobs, but in reality, they did it because they are fucking disgusting. They support Trump because they want to treat minorities and women like shit, they want to feel superior, when in reality, they are the lowest form of human life.
I hear what you are saying, but there is no excuse. Everyone knows what Trump is and what he means, they knew. Racist or not, I will not accept the argument of ignorance.
