Trump Voters Are Afraid of People Like Me

But what do I want for Trump voters? Basic human rights, inherent dignity, increased survivability, revolutionary power in exchange for their labor, and their material needs met.

I hope you enjoy my first-ever video post, written on Election Eve. As a communist, I cannot endorse either of the two major candidates. As an American who still contributes to and lives within the political system of a purple state, I did vote. Still, I know that marginalized people and the working class will continue to suffer regardless of who is president and that I am doing what is in my control to help them.

I just can’t comprehend what it is about people like me that Trumpers hate so much. Not even just hatred — fear. Fear of communism, fear of queerness, fear of educated women.

Thanks for reading The Dirtbag Christian! This post is public so feel free to share it.
