(5,164 posts)55% for 🍊💩 43% hrc, Im not sure about the rest. It has always been more right wing, more fascist, more racist and bigoted here and Ive always known this could happen. Im not sure how it breaks down age wise. My whole family are Dems and hrc supporters and voters. One adjacent neighbor who is in her 80s is a dem and hrc voter. Im not sure about the rest of the neighborhood except for the other adjacent neighbor(50s) who Im pretty sure voted 🍊💩, they are crazy anti abortion types- we dont communicate with them anymore for many reasons, one being the man threatened to beat up my elderly father at one point. I know of one other neighbor an older couple in their 90s who have since passed, who were crazy Fox News 🍊💩 poop supporters. I helped their caretaker trap some free roaming cats at their property. When I went over there she had Fux News on all the time.
My father encountered a demonstration of older men 2-3 years ago who had signs saying dont let the gov get their hands on my Medicare 😳😹 he was trying to explain to them that Medicare is a gov program. One of my students(20s) told me after the election that she and here sister were terrified and crying about the Russia revelations coming out. She was a fux news watcher - she mentioned that.
