How many of you cut off your MAGA relatives?

I know you mean well but this is a very good example of privilege. My children are biracial so no I will not have them around family members who lie and say Jan 6 was BLM and antifa or that the proud boys and unite the right rally are good things. You dont love me or my partner or children if you support politicians/polices/lies that threaten their safety and deny them basic humanity. This is not an intellectual exercise for many people. These are our lives.


DP. My children are also biracial and the URM side of the family is MAGA (or at least Trump voters), largely due to religious beliefs.

Never had anything said or done that threatens their safety or denied their basic humanity.

YMMV


Are you the white parent? As a biracial woman myself, trust me when I tell you, your children have a different racial experience than you. They feel and notice things that you do not, that you cannot. And a time will likely come where they inform you that they have absolutely experienced racism from your MAGA family. And they will spend lots of money on therapy coming to terms with the fact that their own parent cared more about keeping the peace with these people than protecting them.


PP said it was the URM side of the family who is MAGA. PP says it’s based on religious beliefs so you can guess which URM they are talking about. So no the MAGA side isn’t being racist, they are the URMs!


+1000

Just stop with the myth of MAGA is racist. Tons of BIPOC people voted for trump. Latinx people voted for trump. Even LGTBQIA++ people support trump.


Trump had more black voters this time than any republican in the last 30 years. This concept that he does not welcome or appeal to minorities is not supported by the data.


More of few is still not much. Most people of color vote against Republicans, just as they did for Trump. And the reason for that is the known racism that underlies their policies and is prevalent in their rhetoric. Anyone voting for this and pretending it has nothing to do with racism is a disingenuous liar.


But but but we were told by a previous poster that Republicans aren't racist at all! https://www.politico.com/news/2025/10/14/private-chat-among-young-gop-club-members-00592146


And we’ve been told repeatedly that the campus protesters are just advocating for peace in the ME, but Students for Justice in Palestine just tweeted “Death to all collaborators”.

Does that mean that all the keffiyeh kids are terrorists?

Let’s be consistent, shall we?


DP but for starters, one is a student protest group and one is an affiliate of the Republican Party with ties to the current administration (including some people who have worked in government).

To be clear I don’t agree with the message “death to collaborators.” But it seems to be students in response to a particular Gazan death.

Whereas the text chat was ongoing for months using slurs over 250 times. These are the people age 18-40 in line to take over the Republican Party. And we haven’t heard any condemnation from the White House …

And unfortunately they are going to find out, along with the Hispanic and Asian Trump voters, that it wasn't a good idea.

If your family isn't white or wasn't in the United States before the Civil War, the masterminds behind the current Trump administration don't want you here. They have stated this in public.


I am a non-white immigrant and my family feels more welcome here in US than ever before. I don't know who are you referring to as "they", but me and my children were very welcome here. Absolutely no regret for voting for Trump.


Maybe to your face. And maybe you’ve been lucky at not coming across the worst of the party. But look at how Ramaswamy was treated at the recent Turning Point USA event or the slurs in the young republicans text chat. There is a sizeable base of the Republican Party who deep down will never view minorities, women, immigrants, and lgbtq people as equals.

Holy shit, you're dumb.


Let’s hear your argument about how you would distinguish the situations and let the world decide….


Are you seriously asking the PP to spoonfeed you the differences between people who have actual positions of power within the Republican party and a widely-condemned group whose greatest accomplishments include vowing not to vote for Democrats and being vehemently antisemitic (hey, sounds like they'd fit right in with Trump's proud boys!)?

I certainly agree that the Young Republicans’ messaging is loathsome, despicable, and that those responsible should be sh*tcanned from every position they currently hold.

But your distinctions between them and SJP are tenuous at best.

Both groups are leaders of their movement (SJP is national and was instrumental in organizing protests across the US).

Secondly, this is hardly a “one off” from SJP. Multiple statements and actions supporting Hamas.

Bottom line: if we’re going to use statements by some members of a movement to draw conclusions about *everyone* in a movement (as many here are doing), we should apply that logic consistently and without partisan bias.

Me? I think some/many MAGA are racists, some/many are not.

And some/many of the campus protesters support Hamas, and some/many do not.

Oh bless your heart. Both groups are reprehensible. One of the groups is comprised of members who famously boycotted the Democratic nominee for president. The other is literally comprised of the actual, real Republican Party. Do you seriously not see understand the difference here? If not, my sincere sympathy -- life must be really, really difficult for you.

Good lord. Them voting for the party that embraces and promotes racism and violence is the exact act that threatens their safety and denies them their basic humanity.


She’s probably MAGA too because of her cognitive dissonance. I have a MAGA family member with biracial girls who is more worried about my white boys. It’s crazy, but they can’t see reality.


Ma'am, that's your perception and opinion; it's not "reality." I know plenty of minority Trump voters- in fact it was a black man to urged me to consider Trump when I planned to vote for Hillary. You can't just dismiss people with different views and experiences as irrational.


Well, they may come to regret that when the Supreme Court rules their votes count less than white votes.

You’re gross. The worst kind. If you were getting your green card now, or going to an immigration hearing you’d be handcuffed and detained.

I really find your attitude sickening. Worse than racist whites.

Is it really all that surprising that the proud Trump voter is a classic "f**k you, I've got mine" Republican?

My children are biracial so no I will not have them around family members who lie and say Jan 6 was BLM and antifa or that the proud boys and unite the right rally are good things. You dont love me or my partner or children if you support politicians/polices/lies that threaten their safety and deny them basic humanity. This is not an intellectual exercise for many people. These are our lives.


DP. My children are also biracial and the URM side of the family is MAGA (or at least Trump voters), largely due to religious beliefs.

Never had anything said or done that threatens their safety or denied their basic humanity.

YMMV


Good lord. Them voting for the party that embraces and promotes racism and violence is the exact act that threatens their safety and denies them their basic humanity.


She’s probably MAGA too because of her cognitive dissonance. I have a MAGA family member with biracial girls who is more worried about my white boys. It’s crazy, but they can’t see reality.


Ma'am, that's your perception and opinion; it's not "reality." I know plenty of minority Trump voters- in fact it was a black man to urged me to consider Trump when I planned to vote for Hillary. You can't just dismiss people with different views and experiences as irrational.


Well, they may come to regret that when the Supreme Court rules their votes count less than white votes.

You lumping all black people into “they” is actually so racist.

Right, yes I’m much more racist than Trump and MAGA because I failed to say “some.”

Carry on…

Are you the white parent? As a biracial woman myself, trust me when I tell you, your children have a different racial experience than you. They feel and notice things that you do not, that you cannot. And a time will likely come where they inform you that they have absolutely experienced racism from your MAGA family. And they will spend lots of money on therapy coming to terms with the fact that their own parent cared more about keeping the peace with these people than protecting them.


PP said it was the URM side of the family who is MAGA. PP says it’s based on religious beliefs so you can guess which URM they are talking about. So no the MAGA side isn’t being racist, they are the URMs!


+1000

Just stop with the myth of MAGA is racist. Tons of BIPOC people voted for trump. Latinx people voted for trump. Even LGTBQIA++ people support trump.


Trump had more black voters this time than any republican in the last 30 years. This concept that he does not welcome or appeal to minorities is not supported by the data.


And unfortunately they are going to find out, along with the Hispanic and Asian Trump voters, that it wasn't a good idea.

If your family isn't white or wasn't in the United States before the Civil War, the masterminds behind the current Trump administration don't want you here. They have stated this in public.


I am a non-white immigrant and my family feels more welcome here in US than ever before. I don't know who are you referring to as "they", but me and my children were very welcome here. Absolutely no regret for voting for Trump.


You’re gross. The worst kind. If you were getting your green card now, or going to an immigration hearing you’d be handcuffed and detained.

I really find your attitude sickening. Worse than racist whites.


I don't even believe that post. There were non white voters but they are not still supporting this. This is some MAGA trying to defend the party.

More of few is still not much. Most people of color vote against Republicans, just as they did for Trump. And the reason for that is the known racism that underlies their policies and is prevalent in their rhetoric. Anyone voting for this and pretending it has nothing to do with racism is a disingenuous liar.


But but but we were told by a previous poster that Republicans aren't racist at all! https://www.politico.com/news/2025/10/14/private-chat-among-young-gop-club-members-00592146


And we’ve been told repeatedly that the campus protesters are just advocating for peace in the ME, but Students for Justice in Palestine just tweeted “Death to all collaborators”.

Does that mean that all the keffiyeh kids are terrorists?

Let’s be consistent, shall we?


DP but for starters, one is a student protest group and one is an affiliate of the Republican Party with ties to the current administration (including some people who have worked in government).

To be clear I don’t agree with the message “death to collaborators.” But it seems to be students in response to a particular Gazan death.

Whereas the text chat was ongoing for months using slurs over 250 times. These are the people age 18-40 in line to take over the Republican Party. And we haven’t heard any condemnation from the White House …


What's wrong with “death to collaborators”? Trump is blowing up Venezuela fisherman with the same slogan.

Holy shit, you're dumb.


Let’s hear your argument about how you would distinguish the situations and let the world decide….


Are you seriously asking the PP to spoonfeed you the differences between people who have actual positions of power within the Republican party and a widely-condemned group whose greatest accomplishments include vowing not to vote for Democrats and being vehemently antisemitic (hey, sounds like they'd fit right in with Trump's proud boys!)?


Do you seriously not understand the common principle at issue here? If not, my sincere sympathy.


Oh bless your heart. Both groups are reprehensible. One of the groups is comprised of members who famously boycotted the Democratic nominee for president. The other is literally comprised of the actual, real Republican Party. Do you seriously not see understand the difference here? If not, my sincere sympathy -- life must be really, really difficult for you.


You’ve missed the point and misunderstood the principle at issue in its entirety. Unfortunate.
