Better hope your kid won’t be gay, disabled, or elderly at some point during their life.
As someone whose parents taught me this, and sent me to private school so I wouldn't be near any "DEI" kids, it was quite a rude awakening when I developed an autoimmune disease and became disabled.
I am not sure I understand.
Haven’t disabled people been treated well thus far?
Until now, yes, but the current administration is not so kind. Trump despises disabled people (remember when he made fun of the crippled journalist?). The Silicone Valley crowd are heavily into eugenics and survival of the fittest. Nazis, whose ideology Musk has been flirting more and more heavily with, view the disabled as useless eaters who are a drain on society and best disposed of. It’s no coincidence that the DOGE team is gutting the social safety net first.
What the tech bros haven’t realized is that everybody, including them, will spend at least part of their lives disabled and dependent on other people. Not just as a baby, but as an aging person subject to infirmities. An accident, an illness, a difficult pregnancy, or a broken bone can also put someone in that category, sometimes permanently.
So many disabled ("disabled" aka overweight and diabetic and had a small accident on the job a decade ago and never worked again) MAGA voters about to learn this the hard way.

Tech bros suck. And they don’t understand Karma or the Sermon on the Mount.

A generation ago women couldn't get a mortgage or a credit card without a husband. In many states women aren't allowed to get a hysterectomy without written approval of their husbands. This is the time people want to move back to.

If you've made a lot of money working for or with the Federal government, overseas accounts might be a good idea, and a good way to protect wealth for your kids.

Who do you think receives the Medicaid they are gutting? RFK wants to ban psychiatric medications.
And he wants work camps for people with ADHD and addictions.
And to “re parent” black children.
He, however, took heroin for his ADHD. WHO would trust him????

Australia has its own maga infection, though it’s a much more minor case.
It helps people stay within bounds of common sense. It’s not normal when pre teens can get gender therapy. I’ll take “maga infection” that doesn’t allow it
It’s not up to you to decide what’s normal. The fact that someone would even let that be in their top 50 reasons to support this administration would certainly make one an idiot when there are so many real concerns out there.

Hopefully we can rule out gay. Elderly, well, their life sucks pretty much everywhere. Unless they have money

Hypocrite.
Nah, just a realist. I didn’t vote for Trump btw and I live in a blue state. But I am trying to make lemonade out of lemons rn.
I’ve lived through the collapse of the USSR with its ethnic conflicts, inflation, lawlessness. The ones who came out fine? Those who could adapt and be resilient

Thank you, well said. Things are slowly getting better, it's all looking very hopeful for everyone.
With a criminal as potus?? that is getting better?
These people are single issue voters, and that issue is "will people I don't like be punished?"
