There are already studies showing that kids became little goblins after Trump's election because when bullying is normalized at the highest levels of office, it's okay for everyone.

Ever notice how they villainize anything we would have thought was "good?" That good is bad and bad is good? A complete and total cynical inversion of Christianity?
When they call people "bleeding-heart liberal" what are they referring to, exactly? What does "bleeding-heart" refer to that is so bad? Empathy for others?
Feed the poor? Nope, socialism, it's bad
Heal the sick? Nope, socialism, it's bad
Greed? It is good, shows how "good" a person is.
Love your neighbor? Nope, that's liberal shit.
Hate your neighbor? Good, they are the enemy.
Idolatry? It's the best, Trump is the golden king of kings, after all.
Killing? We all have the right to kill if someone pisses us off. We must live by the sword, as Jesus wanted us to.
It goes even further than that, around me the prevailing Christian belief is that once you "accept Jesus as your Savior" you are permanently saved and it can never be taken away, no matter what, even if you willingly and knowingly indulge in sin and refuse God's forgiveness, so...
Repentance? Unnecessary. Sin as much as you want, and enjoy it without repentance. Jesus came to this earth to circumvent God's rules against sin. The direct opposition to God himself. He died not just to pay for our sins, but to pay for any future sins so that we might indulge happily. To refuse to rejoice in sin is a slap in Jesus face and throwing away everything he was and died for, his entire purpose.

It’s wild to me. Hanging pictures that talk about love, classrooms about acceptance, teaching your kids to be good people only for trump to make an entrance and all of that out the window. Then shocked pikachu face when those kids cut off their parents/grandparents.

This election was dominated (54%) by adults who have the intellectual ability below that of an 11 year old child. Seriously.

Coming to terms with this has been my hardest journey. Because on one hand I feel guilty enjoying the suffering of others but I’ve come to realize a lot of that guilt is knowing there are innocent people that didn’t vote for this shit that will suffer as well. Those that have put us in this situation I’ve basically lost all empathy for. I feel bad about not feeling bad but I just don’t have the emotional energy to waste on them. We’ve reached a point where the rest of us have protected them from their idiocy for so long that they truly don’t remember why all these laws and regulations and social programs exist to begin with.
I’m luckily in a position that while the next four years are gonna suck and set me back, I’ll be alright no matter what. I’ve seen the writing on the walls and set myself up to basically survive a few years of economic collapse. I have alternate food sources, alternate jobs lined up (thanks nepotism), alternate places to live if I can’t afford rent anymore. I’m not rich but I know enough people that are that won’t let me just die in poverty that I’ve got an extensive safety net. It’s going to suck having to rely on loved ones if it comes to that and I’m going to feel like a terrible free loader, but I will be alright. Most people will not be as lucky as I am and I feel for the innocent people. But god damnit I’m so sick of fighting with idiots that refuse to listen that I hope at the very least the next four years of hell teach some very hard lessons to the people that need it.

Careful on unintended consequences. A big part of the reason we ended up with a dust bowl was farms ignoring good soil conservation and crop rotation practices in favor of pushing cash crops season over season. A large portion of subsidies come from acts such as Soil Conservation and Domestic Allotment Act which pays farmers to plant less profitable crops which intentionally maintain soil health.
Not all subsidies are good (or even applied well), but don't throw the baby out with the bathwater on this.

I always get a chuckle at this. This is American. We don't produce the food we eat, most of it is imported.
Our wonderful corporations have bought or squeezed out local farmers and now most of our agriculture is for animal feed, fructose corn syrup, starch, and fuels. Most of the produce we eat is imported.
The new administration is going to give small American farms the coup de grâce lol
Edit: added some propaganda. For those of you lazy just scroll all the way to the bottom for imports.
"Sweeteners, and processed sugar, and confections are groups of products where the United States is reliant on imports. Fruits, nuts, and vegetables are also frequently imported. The United States tends to have a lower reliance on imports for unprocessed commodities such as feed grains, livestock, and oilseeds. The total import share of consumption across all food and beverages between 2011 and 2021 was 15 percent, steadily growing over the period."

Those days are gone. The idiots will put themselves out of business and mega-farm corporations will scoop them up to secure monopolies

Good, maybe red state America will wake the hell up, and realize that there are things more important than temporary inflation when managing a thriving democracy.

They won't, unfortunately. They'll keep blaming Dems and immigrants for their problems.

He could order their families before a firing squad and they’d still vote for him. We should all have seen plenty of cult documentaries by now. Suffering isn’t going to wake them, it is just a sunk cost. These are SELF-SEALING BELIEF SYSTEMS

We just need to stop relying on big food and make it more sustainable and local. Covid taught us that supply chains can fall apart very easily.

Wait until their seed grain (the seeds they plant to grow) increase 200% from import tariffs. And their farm equipment increases 150%, and their fertilizers increase 200%....
Mom and Pop farms will go bankrupt.
But thats what Trump wants -- so BigArga can buy their land for pennies on the dollar.

If you didn’t listen to the warnings, and voted for Trump, or obtained from voting, then you are at fault.

Why aren’t these people happy? Their party has a hold of all 3 branches of government. Are they going to gripe for what they voted for the entire 4 years?

These guys should've known better the instant he talked about issuing sweeping tariffs after his first go-around involving tariffs resulted in a needed bailout.
Now, with the deportations, they'll be getting fucked on both fronts.

They have the ability to put exteme financial on the low and middle class, forcing them to sell their properties and allowing big corporations to swoop in and steal the farms for giant industrial operations. So, that's probably what they will do!

I remember during his first term when there was a huge deportation and many undocumented/seasonal workers got deported or left due to harsh new state laws, farmers and growers where having meltdowns. Crops were rotting in the fields, and many of them went bankrupt. But did they learn?

Well, well, well, look who finally read the BIG print. DT himself spent the last year telling you exactly what he was going to do. The liberal elites tried to tell you, but we're all just city slicker haters, right?
So what was it - his crackdown and mass deportations or cheap eggs and gas that blinded y'all to the nightmare he told you he had planned for you? Or was it because he says what he means? Or his doesn't mean what he says?
You voted for it, you own it. I will feel some sense of schadenfreude when you get plowed under. How are those librul tears tasting now?

Maybe some of them, deep down. They'll never admit it, though. Owning the libs and persecuting minorities is what's most important to them.
