I don't even want to get in to why RFK Jr speaks to Latinos (did I miss the Latino anti-vax brain worms movement?) but you can't tell me Latinos are moving towards Trump and also that if this third guy wasn't on the ballot they would vote for Biden. if anything, RFK Jr is like Trump if CrossFit replaced the racism.
or it's as if they saw people being a bunch of racist cunts and said "fuck you, now you get twice as many immigrant veggies on your plate, you piece of shit."
like, if public opinion was that murder should be legal and there was a "Ted Bundy did nothing wrong" party that promised to legalize murder, what do you think politicians should do about that? just roll over and legalize murder? or say "I don't care how popular it is, MURDER IS WRONG AND YOU'RE WRONG FOR WANTING IT"?
BECAUSE THEY ARE. you just got done saying "many citizens feel uncomfortable with the associated societal changes," that is the DEFINITION OF XENOPHOBIA. you don't have to be white to be racist or xenophobic. being a minority who hates immigrants is just as ignorant as being a white person who hates immigrants.
this doesn't even talk about the race of foreign-born residents & we all know these Nazis only have their titties in a twist over brown people. but also I wonder if the impact of global interconnectedness & sheer physical ease of travel might have something to do with it? not like all those foreign-born people are traveling on foot. it's becoming increasingly common for white collar people to move abroad for college, a job opportunity, better cost of living or just to experience another culture
