  • The average voter mindset is “which president will get me cheaper food?”

    My parents get fed propaganda from Wechat (yes that Chinese app) saying democrats are letting too much illegal immigrants in, taking up too much resources.

    We are legal immigrants, but shes doesn’t see “illegal immigrant” is a dogwhistle about all immigrants that they dont like like black or brown people, or anyone they deem inferior.

    Doesnt help the fact that Eric Adams and NYC democrats are building homeless shelters near Chinese American population.

    My parents told me some of our relatives in NYC voted Trump, Asian Americans voting trump.

    They say some Asian American co-workers at their workplace are supporting Trump.

    My parent say “Its fine, we survived one term under trump”

    Everyone who’s a US Citizen in our household voted Kamala Harris. We tried. Our state PA still went red.

    My US Citizen mom once said, “maybe we shouldn’t vote for democrats, look at what they did in NYC (refering to homeless shelters)”, and I reminded her about the Chinese Exclusion Act. So she vote Harris because I told her to. Like she didnt have a mind of her own. If her children turned out to be conservatives, she’d vote trump. Some people just dont care about politics. Similarly, some people have apolitical children but political parents, those children then vote for who their parents vote for.

    We need to fix this voter apathy. Democracy is just broken.

    (oh wow didnt mean to type a paragraph, sorry for the wall of text, election results still enraging me…)
