      I don’t think they hate themselves. They just hate other things that republicans also hate. They hate poor people, gay people and trans people enough that they are willing to take some hits to themselves as long as it hits the other groups harder.

        I don’t know, I think that still counts as self-hatred, in a way. You have to be some special kind of fucked up to hate another group of people so intensely that you’d voluntarily wade knee-deep in shit just to shove them in down to their shoulders.

          Ah yes, the foundation of the current Republican Party.

          Minorities in politics are always going to be experiencing a completely different live than the average person. They live in their nice big house in their gated community and probably face little to no racism irl. They just don’t care.
